SOURCE: 2005 Acura TL Radio/Nav code

Your navigation code and radio codes writed on stikers on glovebox. Just open your glovebox and look on left side of gloivebox, not inside but outside. Open glovebox and look on left side. On my 2005 Acura RL NAV and Radio codes is different but it both on glove box. Sometime you even need to remove your glovebox cover to see those codes.

SOURCE: 96 acura tl 3.2l is overheating+signals wont work

Start with the easy one (hopefully). You probably have to replace your turn signal flasher. It's located behind the dash, driver side of steering column in the relay block (just pull out to remove).
Your overheating problem: Are you losing coolant, or is the car just running hot? Any leaks, puddles?
Check the cooling fans to make sure they are kicking on as the engine temp rises. If not, you may have a bad switch that is not telling the fan to go on. If fan(s) are operating ok, check the thermostat. If it isn't opening properly, it could be the cause of the overheating. If you have a leak in the system, then when it gets too low, it starts to overheat. Many possibilities, So, let me know the answers to the above so I can help further if needed.

SOURCE: Car starts poorly during cold mornings. The idle

Sounds like a cold start valve (which is actually an additional injector in the intake to assist in cold starting) If you can get it to your local prts store while the light is on they will read the codes for free and tell you what the car thinks is amiss.

My 1996 5.2 dodge ram 318 laramie sport idles roug

clean the intake with a good quality intake cleaner. A carb cleaner that will not hurt plastic parts.After that let it cool, take some of the carb spray and clean the o2 sensors ,let dry,wipe the o2 sensors down with a clean cloth.replace them in there sockets.Remove one battery post for about 15 minutes.It should run better.The o2 cleaning should last only temperarely and the o2s will eventually have to be changed.you may want to check to see if you have a fuel filter and change it as well

My strarus idles rough in drive and stalls when icut the wheels all the way

I'd start by checking the idle air control valve, google it for your car and it will give you location, unplug it and the car should die, if not good possibility it's bad.

Replaced engine in 97 CL. All put together but power steering fluid has a lot of air in it and making alot of noise. How do I get air out of power steering system?

Let it sit with the engine off. this will help the air bubble seperate from the fluid. With the reservoir full (using only hoda/acura specific P/S fluid), the engine off and the front wheels off the ground turn the steering wheel full left and full right several times while keeping an eye on the fluid level. Then start the engine and let it idle. Eventually the rest of the air will work its way out. Heavily cavitated fluid will take some time.

You can also add about an ounce of Seafoam Motor Tune to the P/S fluid. This will help remove the air bubbles from the system.

Iā€™m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa
