2004 Acura TL - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Some cars actually require higher octane, if the manufacturer suggest higher octane for maximum effenciency your best advised to do so.

follow them from the radiator to the transmission

Look for the code on the outer left side of the glove box, top number is the code, the bottom number is the serial. Just saved you some time and money. Now if you could explain how to get the radio to prompt code entry instead of error. Tried removing fuse under the hood and disconnecting the battery terminal to prompt code entry, to no avail.

The numbers on the radio screen after pressing 1 & 6 are the serial number to retrieve the radio code! The 4 digit number on the glovebox is probably the radio code, keep pressing preset number 1 until the first number is on the screen, then press preset number 2 until the second number is on the screen, then press preset number 3 until the third number is on the screen, then press preset number 4 until the fourth number is on the screen!

there should be a belt diagram from a label either on underside of hood or on radiator support. That should help if you can do it yourself.

the problem will be in the master cylinder compensating port blocked disc brakes do not have return valves or residual line pressure like drum brakes if at any time the heated brake fluid is not allowed to expand back into the reservoir it expands and pushes the disc brakes harder on catch 22 situation dragging pads generate heat , fluid expands and presses the pads on harder = more heat =more pressure the rotors have to be running true ( no wobbles) wheel bearings have to be correctly adjusted or replaced and the calliper body has to move freely on the mounting pins to allow for self centering action instead of the mechanic go to an accredited brake professional shop and have a proper diagnosis and quote done

Just try to spray contact cleaner in it thru volume control knob area by removing knob outward.The proper way is cleaning by spraying in the audio control switch from inside but because it is bit difficult job,Hope it will solve the issue.

The locks are controlled though a central module, it needs to be scanned to see why the locks are not working.

pack the channel the ring sits in with grease. The grease will help hold the clip centered on the axle. You don't need a lot just enough to keep the ring from moving. Then slide the axle into place using a rubber mallet to gently "convince" the axle into place. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

When the anti theft system was created,the dealers forgot to tell the new car buyers about how much the fob matters to the vehicle,without it,owners are stuck,your anti theft device is activated,you need to lock and unlock your doors a couple times with the key fob,not the key,and then you need to put the key in the ignition and start it,if you dont have your key fob,call your car dealer to get a new one,they are programmed for each car only,you cannot bypass it.if you lost your fob or never had it,whatever,you need to have the exact fob that came with that car from the factory,the key and fob have a chip in them that only go to that certain car,if you do not have it,then you need to buy a new one from the dealer or ebay and then you need to contact your dealer about programming the fob to your car,you might not have to have it towed if they have the documents from the car,the only other way is to get a junk car,with the steering column,key,fob and all computer boxes and door locks and switch them,i just did that with a 98 dodge dakota,and it works....

Bring your car down to autozone store or an auto part store that will diagnose engine lights or service lights for free.
It could be something else that needs looked.
Normally. The oil change shops reset the service light for you.

If the humming noise is present with the engine off the fault is in the radio , if only with the engine running it is receiving a signal from some electoral part of the engine.

Your going to have noises and fluid drop when you first do this project there is air in the system have you turned the steering wheel several times left to right while running to bleed the air and re check fluid level?

connect a amp meter in series the amps will vary as the control switch is moved if all is ok.

Every 105,000 miles or 7 years

If you are lucky the main fuse from the battery, in the underhood fuse box will blow. Follow the small positive battery cable to the fuse box, it is attached to that fuse.

B is an oil and filter change, with visual inspection under the car. 5 is a coolant change. If you had your timing belt done in the last few years, they probably replaced your water pump and coolant, so it would still be good. Most coolants, including Acura's, are good for 5 years. (the original coolant that came with your car was good for 10 years)

newer rads dont the paranoid stealth radio's dont. some honda's did.(operators guide tells you ,yes or no, read it?) are you trying to back up your code? is that it?
