2014 Acura TL review after over 100k miles. I have already reviewed the third generation Acura TL and I appreciated everything that car had going for it. Link to the 2005 Acura TL here: • 2005 Acura TL: Still W...
I previously owned a 2010 Acura TSX and it was a great car. I believe this 2014 Acura TL is the superior car due to the ride comfort and the V6 of course which comes as standard. There is a V6 on option with the TSX but that was very rare. There are two V6 options with the TL a 3.5l and a 3.7l but the vehicle in this review is the 3.5l V6. Another advantage of the Acura TL is the double-wishbone front suspension setup, which is superior to the 2015-2020 Acura TLX.

I have the 2010. Wanted the TSX but I thought the ride was a bit rough. Dealership let me take a TL overnight - the hook was in. So much nicer drive and everything. Mine has the tech pkg which gave me nav, backup camera, and my most favorite thing, the hard drive. I can load a CD ( yes I'm old school) and it is stored on the hard drive. I just did the timing belt at 98,000 miles. Acura does have a nicer dealership experience - they gave me an RDX to drive as a loaner. The hook didn't work - I'm a sedan person. My husband has the 2012 with the advanced pkg which gave him the tech features plus heated/ventilated seats and the blind spot monitor. He has 111,000 miles and no timing belt replacement. We've been given "appraisals" from the dealership of $7000 for the 2010 and $7500 for the 2012 without the timing belt update, $9000 with it.

@bohan9957 4 года назад

I owned an Acura RL for 6 years. Bought new in 2006 and it was absolutely a blast to drive. The SH-AWD was first implemented on the RL and there is nothing like it in the market at the time. It was the best sedan I've even driven. I lost that RL in a not-at-fault accident a few years ago. The ACE body structure saved my life. I was seriously contemplating with getting a used '12-'14 TL with SH-AWD, but family needs ended up steering me in the SUV direction. It was great memory being an RL owner and I do want to go back to Acura in the future.

@MeynMotorGroup 4 года назад

Man glad you are safe and still with us my friend. Yea I really want to review an RL. I recently reviewed a 2020 Acura RLX and it was great. SH-AWD is an amazing thing to have with Acuras for sure and glad you owned one. Thanks again for stopping by

As a car enthusiast, I take my 2012 Acura TL FWD with Tech Package autocrossing sometimes and sometimes the car can actually put down some pretty decent times considering how it is a heavy front wheel drive vehicle. Currently I have a progress 22mm rear sway bar installed on the rear with a stiffer setting to induce oversteer. My next plan is to put on some Enkei PF05s and Bridgestone Potenza Re71Rs.

Can u start doing 0-60 tests in the vehicles?

@MeynMotorGroup 4 года назад

I actually used to but I never do that anymore because that number is truly pointless. I've come to understand specs are not the correct way to critique vehicles but instead judge cars by how they truly feel to drive and specs just can't explain how a car truly feels. Plenty of slow cars I enjoy driving. And specs can always be found on the manufacturer website

i have a 2014 TL 3.7 and i’m burning oil, positive i’m not leaking. i only have 84k miles on it now!

@jasonhamilton258 Год назад

3.7 l V6 is they were having an oil consumption issue from what I was seeing and told that Acura was fixing them under warranty there's actually videos if you look them up on RU-vid but people that talk about having problems with the 3.7 the 3.5 l there's nothing wrong with that engine it was all the 3.7 l hope that helps

@Gonzo_Bubb 4 года назад

@@MeynMotorGroup Well my '05 Accord Hybrid has it, the '08-'12 Accords had it too. I suspect the TL's didn't have it because they tend to be more sporty and get less mileage than a similar V-6 Accord. I do know the VCM causes some issues though.

@wshoemabillings8864 3 года назад

Price being about the same, would you guys be more interested in 2012 SH-AWD (60,000 miles) or a 2013 FWD (37,000 miles)?

@MeynMotorGroup 3 года назад

Hmm that is close to half the miles and a year newer...tough choice I may go with that but AWD is epic perhaps negotiate a deep discount on it

@wshoemabillings8864 3 года назад

@@MeynMotorGroup I'm so excited to hear back from you having a super hard time deciding. The AWD with more mileage is actually about $1300 less. The cars are on Vroom so I can't test drive. Also scares the hell out of me cause you know they are out of warranty and it's really hard to tell how dependable they will be. Right now I drive a 2006 Accord V-6 with 167,000 miles that I still really love, but want to pass down to my son for his first car. I want something that's at least as fun to drive if not more though...something I can depend on but also quicken my blood a bit at times. Do you feel like the TL is as reliable as the Accord and is the lost fuel economy worth it do you think?

@MeynMotorGroup 3 года назад

@@wshoemabillings8864 yea I would skip anything you can't see or drive. Better to buy from a reputable dealer and get a nice warranty

@wshoemabillings8864 3 года назад

@@MeynMotorGroup darn I was hoping you wouldn't say that. The selection here in Montana sucks! Everything here is several thousand more and never available with the options I want. And of course theirs no way you're going to find a TL here or even a Mazda3 with the 2.5 liter. Finding something half way exciting here with a decent price and the options you want is impossible. Thanks for getting back to me though. I'm thinking about taking a chance still on the Vroom TL SH-AWD still. It's priced at like $14,700 and Vroom warranties for 3 months. Shouldn't I notice any problems by then and be able to get them fixed on their dime?

@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan 8 месяцев назад

280 HP is plenty of power for a car back in 2014. Definitely a healthy amount of power, since this one is the FWD version. And the fact that it is lighter than the SH-AWD version, it will definitely feel lighter on its feet. Sure you could go up to the SH-AWD TL with that 3.7L V6 with 305 HP, but 280 HP is a perfect amount of power for a car like this. Plus having 6 gears in the transmission means that it is a bit widely spaced, but it is responsive, and hunts for gears less. 6 speeds I feel are enough gears for a transmission. Honda and Acura just know how to make a fun driving car that is FWD, but then it doesn't really feel like FWD when you chuck it around corners. Great chassis and great driving experience, despite the fact that this car is basically a Honda Accord underneath, but Acura can just take a Honda vehicle and make it truly great for driving.
