- This is my 2012 TL Tech, it has 226k miles on it currently and has been rock solid since day one.
If you have any question on your TL or possible future purchase of one feel free to leave a comment and ill try to answer it ASAP
If you have a high mileage one please leave comment with mileage and any issues you have had!
Thank you for this. I have a '12 TL, same color as yours; I bought it with 100k a year and a half ago and it's up to 110k now. I hope to have this car for a LONG time, best car I've ever owned.
Like-wise ! 👍🏾
Hey, can i ask how much did u pay for it at 100k miles? Im looking for a 2012 TL too
@@godintheshell No prob! I paid 14.5k for mine, and it had 99k miles at the time.
As an update, I’m up to 122k miles and I still love the car as much as I did on day one.
@@chicagoakland and the average mpg? Does it require premium unleaded? Thanks
@@chicagoakland i got my ‘12 TL tech with 65k miles for $14k 6 months ago. I think I got a pretty awesome deal.
Acura/Honda is probably one of the only cars I'd buy with over 150k and not worry about it mechanically. Your's is very clean. Enjoyed the video.
I bought a 2012 tech with 53k miles in 2014. Now has 155k. Never one problem. Change the oil with synthetic every 7500, did a major tune up at 95k, every 20k i drop and replace 3quarts of trans fluid, car runs like a top, hauls ass, fun to drive. I agree with this guy, you can buy them over 200k miles and they are still super reliable.
Glad to see you at 225k! The 2012-2014 is super classy, love the way it looks, stock. I used to own a 2012 SH-AWD, no mods, and it was amazing to drive - but it was not reliable/ dependable. I made the decision to give it up before the warranty expired. It was always at the dealer with propeller shaft issues, which is... a huge part of the drivetrain. It needed to be replaced twice. I miss it for sure - but the 3.7L/ SH-AWD system is not reliable.
FWD 3.5L however, is a different story. Great all around, not mechanically complicated, reliable vehicle while still offering great performance. Congrats on keeping yours in great shape! Always nice to see.
Just got a 2014 3.7 with 71,800 miles in great shape! This car had it all its maintenance done and drives great!
Hey can i ask how much i paid for it? Im shopping for a used one too and dont know much about the value estimate
Awesome
I bought the Acura TL base 2012 at 34k for 22k at Honda Dealership 2016.
No regrets! runs like a clock at 130k now, a joy to maintain, no problems with the J35
Hey! Do you daily drive it? And how aggressive would you say you drive the car? I have a 2013 Acura with just over 102,000 miles, and I just wanted to see how long it would last me! I definitely push her a few times a week but I get maintenance when needed!
@@romanmichaelable
Yes I am required to drive different location because of work and daily errands. I try not to push hard but there are times where i will- Shes Quick!! usually after fresh fluids. ive gotten timing belt replaced, water pump, alternator, brakes, and coolant drain and fill, ATF change every year.
also ONLY Shell 91 V-power.
I admnit,
its not an Camry or Accord and does require $ to maintain but so far irs worth it.
@@JSPHTRS yeah i got my car at 57k and I put about 50k miles within the year, I commute all over and it’s mostly highway miles! I’ve dont oil changed pretty much every month, I changed the transmission fluid and I also changed the timing belt, breaks, and tires! And yes I love my Acura so much! She impresses me everyday haha
@@JSPHTRS and I agree, it’s luxury! But it’s a luxury Honda so u know it’ll last and it’ll take a beating!
@@JSPHTRS How much money to maintain it? i make about $17.04 an hour/ 40 hours a week full time.
I've always loved that acura black... can see yourself in it 15 years down the road
Just started the process of buying a 2012 TL SH-AWD with 85k miles, shipping in from Southern California. So stoked! It's great to see how well yours has held up.
Just installed new OEM Struts/Springs/Swar Bar links on my 2012 Base @ 85K miles. What a great investment to the overall ride/handling. Mine is like yours, pristine condition. Over maintained all it's life, hoping to see 200K.
I just picked up a 2010 acura tl. about 88,000 miles on it. I don't know if the previous owners ever did the timing belt and all, gonna get that checked in a month or two. i never knew about that diagnostic menu in the infotainment...nice. I hope my warranty covers these repairs.
I have a stock 2005 TL with a little over 222,000 miles on it. I opted for the 6 speed manual transmission which is an absolute blast to drive. I keep up with all the maintenance and keep it very clean. The navigation finally went out. I could get it fixed for $350-400, but to be honest I use my phone now for navigation purposes (Waze specifically). This cars is not a rocket off the line, but it does pull strongly - when you're on the highway and have to pass someone it has more than enough power and pushes you back in the seat to beyond triple digit speeds. It still has the original clutch, and the transmission still shifts smoothly between gears. I currently have Michelin Pilot A/S 3+ Ultra High Performance tires on it, and this thing sticks to the road like glue. I have a 2013 Honda Accord Sedan (V6) as well, and it doesn't corner anywhere close to the TL. Yes, I realize different tires and suspensions contribute significantly to this, but I was just stating that the TL handles noticeably better and much quieter. I was going to get the 2012-2014 model year TL because it has the bigger engine and syill comes with a manual transmission, but I really like the way the 05 looks and decided I have no desire to get rid of it. I am certain I can 300K miles on this car and look forward to having it for many more years of driving pleasure.
Only thing to take into consideration on the newer body style is the 3.7 shawd does have a good bit of issues. My dad has a 2011 with 215k his burns oil but has not had any issues while I’ve heard others having issues with the driveline that’s goes to the back a a few other things. The Fwd model is the most solid but at the same time it sounds like you would want to stick with a manual so that would be the only option
Hi Nate. I just bought my first, new to me, 2012 Acura TL SH-AWD, with 89,600 miles. I’ve had it a week, January 14, 2021, and it’s like a brand new car. I traded in my 180,000 mile Honda Accord. Liked your video. Thanks.
I feel bad for you... Were you aware that the 3.7L V6 burns oil when you got it? You should still be covered though (until 120k miles)
I got a 2013 TL with 48k miles for $11500, absolute steal
How lol?

Thanks for the videos. I am considering a 2013 with 90-100K and owning it for 8 years, up to 200K. It's good to find reviews like this to know how it would do in the long term.
I got a 2013 with 130k. Spent 11k on it. Love the car
Have a 09 TL has 163k miles on it … bought it at 130k AC unit was completely shot but Acura replaced it a no cost . Changed transmission fluid right after I bought it. So far only other repair I had to get done was the alternator which also went out on me at around 145-150k miles. looking forward to it giving me many more memories
Have a 2012 bought it with 132k miles also. Great carfax record it was well maintained. At 146k miles I had to replace alternator as well. Only issue so far and I’m now at 165k! 💯🏆 car is bulletproof never lets me down. I do keep up with its maintenance also
I got say this car is amazing I just bought one at dealership and it has 95000 miles I can't get over how good this vehicle handles it awesome ride I had 2016 mazda and I loved it but this acura is way better awesome ride and another this people wore saying it has to many miles but thats low miles for acura and after seeing this video I'm not worried thanks for video.
I have the 2010 Sh AWD with 75,000miles while I will trade in for the Kia stinger. This car has been super reliable!... Hope am making a good decision
Hope it worked out but I think your trading a winner for a chicken dinner.
@@BrotherNkosi LOL. Am picking up one in May. Covid slowed 🐌things down for me
Nice TL. I have a 2007 Acura RL SH-AWD with almost 270,000 miles on it and i owned it since 2014(bought with 145k). It has been the most reliable car I ever owned. Drove it around half of the country and still drives very solid and very smooth. The J35A8 V6 engine is smooth as silk and can last forever, i just do only the normal maintenance. I made some videos on my channal about it too. Acuras forever!
ever do a timing belt?
@@abemartinez9623 Yes every 90k miles. First one at 190k miles and the second one is coming up at 280k miles. I have 275k on it now.
@@Travelingcarguy1 wow okay thanks.
Got a 2012 with 150k miles for 5500$. Paint is in rough shape and some parts of the interior arent great, but the engine + transmission + brakes are in perfect condition. Think it was well worth it. Its my second one, first one was a 2014 with 60k miles I got in 2019 as my first car
got a 2010 that i got with 76,000 in Oct 2019 Love it .
I got a ‘10 6mt in October 2019 I love it as well. Great cars if Honda was German it would be Acura. But the mechanical side would be the best in the country.
I wonder if this car is still running, 2 years later. I just test drove one that I'm thinking of buying with just over 200k. Surprisingly the interior held up really well after 10 years.
Someone at my work drives a white 2012 TL that he bought used in 2015 which replaced a 2003 TL. I've always loved the styling of these cars as well as the TSX & prefer them over the current TLX which doesn't look as special IMO even though it replaced both cars.
how do you like this boat design over the sharp lines in the new TLXs?
I’m buying one from my cousin soon. Her son graduated almost 2 years ago and he was mainly the sole driver of it. But since he has gotten a brand new Camaro and moved out of state, it’s sat undriven mostly for about 2 years. It’s high mileage, well over 100k, but she takes care of her cars. I don’t remember exactly. But I’ll be back to tell you about my experience when I get it next 2 months. It’s a 2012, I believe a TL Tech Package. I can’t wait. I’ll check back in soon. Also, where to go to change the key.
Did you get it?
2013 TL Advance package FWD with 89,000 miles in California. Just changed the Timing Belt and Valve Cover gaskets today. Change the engine oil every 5,000 miles since new with Mobil 1 0W20 and transmission fluid every 15,000 miles since new. It is a beautiful car, plenty of power, never any issues, and looks great. It runs and looks as good as the day I drove it off the lot with 5 miles.
I don’t drive it much nowadays and some times I think about selling it, wonder what it is worth?
About $12K. I would keep it. I own the same with about same mileage and timing belt done.
Can we get another update?
I own a 2013 AWD Tech. 90k now great car!!!
The 3.7L had the torque converter issue, not the standard 3.5
Yea that AWD weight put extra load on that T converter
Since I've copped my "12 TL AWD I've changed the Spark Plugs , oil screen filter , and a few oil changes
You need to make sure your fuel injector is good the fwd TL are better on mileage than the awd
@@kingdavid2363 Thanks! That's good to know . Yeah awd is a drinker
Are you getting the oil burning issue i keep hearing about or is that greatly exaggerated?
@@bruteboy123 I honestly think it depends on how you drive but I usually change the oil every 3 or 4 months maybe
@@Kinggunna87 I read in a acura forum that of your tl sh-awd has less than 120k miles or something, that acura dealerships will honor the warranty and fix the oil burning issue. Not sure if it's true or not but, I think I'll take the plunge and purchase a tl 3.7 v6 awd
Honda paint quality is my #1 complaint with Honda.
i have an 06 TL with 160K and i love it. I been wanting to upgrade but TBH, i'm going to keep my car for another 40K miles then i'll consider the upgrade to another TL or an MDX.
At 205k 2011 only alternator and starter have been replaced and water pump timing assembly at 200k thats all
Great car i own a 2009 TL 3.5 with 162k miles on it, only major mechanical issue ive had with mine is oil burning. I burn about a quart every 200-300 miles. Mine is an extreme case but other than that it runs great
2010 Acura TL has 242km, no issues the interior and exterior is in great shape. Should I get it for $4500
did you end up getting it ?
Second owner here I own'd one from 33K miles to now )133K miles. not many issues, had ignition switch issues, where the car did not lock, had to replace it around 40-50 K i do not remember if it was covered under warranty or not! had fuel purge value go bad around 120k (tighten fuel cap light came on). other than that nothing crazy, i keep a detailed maintenance log and i have a Prius as a daily driver so this car doesn't get too much action these days!
also had to replace a ball boint bearing passenger side around 90K miles!
I had a 2003 put 175k on the car. I am looking at purchasing 2012 TL. I miss my Acura. The car road so well. Looking to pirchase one soon.
I found a 2014 full loaded for 11700 with 130k at Acura.. it’s beautiful dealer maintained but it’s a lot of miles for the price.. they have a 2007 with 72k for 7500 but seat is in worse condition than the 2-14 with more milage and has some micro rust spots starting .. found a Subaru Impreza gt which is a wrx 2009 with 92k for 10k
I know this video 📸 was done a long time but that paint job is super 🙂👍 I have the same TL fwd but I delete mid resonator and mufflers and added quads tips and yes it sounds awesome 🤩😎
post a video of the sound!
I have a 2013 3.5L with Technology package and 128k miles on it. Getting it back from the shop this week after it being out of commission for two years with a radiator problem. I thought i had a tranny problem due to all tranny fluid leaking out after overheating so I've just been driving my truck.
Only thing I don't like is the leather seats did bot hold up well and need fixing or replacing
Two years???
Why did it sit so long? Didn't have the time or money?
@@JamarD421 I feared taking it to the shop and finding out it would be a transmission rebuild or something catastrophic like that and My last job I was working loss prevention at walmart so i wasn't making enough to pay that kind of repair bill. I did research the whole time and was finally confident it was a 90% chance it was just radiator repair or replacement. My new job I can breath a lot easier and can afford repairs now like the tensioner and water pump i just replaced. I will now fix the headlight issue I've had for years by replacing the headlight assembly and also replace the cracked leather seats (happened from sitting in my yard). It's a really good car
@@ShaunPPatterson Oh. Wow man. How much did all of that cost you if you don't mind me asking?
@@JamarD421 The radiator and fan replacement cost ~$750 and they had to replace the tranny fluid as well. The water pump and tensioner was like $500. I'm looking for a good headlight assembly set that is either with custom LED DRLs or just plain OEM assemblies which will hopefully be less than $600.
All these repairs makes me wanna get another motorcycle to avoid the maintenance costs 😆
27.7 MPG wow, I got the same model but barely make it 20.0 MPG
I had a 2012 TL shawd and I had a good amount of problems with it, granted I did drive it hard. The car is not meant to be driven like a true sports car. I eventually traded it in for a wrx and I am personally more happy with the wrx. The TL is still a great car and would recommend. For reference, my TL had 115,000 miles
Have you had the EPS (Electric Power Steering) control module replaced per the recall?
It's a new recall for the 3.5s?
Hi I just bought a 2012 Acura tl tech package with 95k miles on it. What would you recommend I look for/do ?
I’m getting my 2012 in a week from carvana 56k miles. I’m going to change the transmission fluid. Check your carfax history and see if it been done. That’s one of the main ways to prolong the life of the transmission. Also of course check the oil and other fluids.
Change all the fluids and make sure the timing belt has been changed. You are both at the mileage and time for a new one. I would also recommend a plug change and possible plug wires. Once you have a baseline, she will be good to go for another 100,000+ with very few issues.
@@robertborne895 thank you
What type of oz from lube guard did you put in? Did you only add lube guard once after the fourth time you changed the transmission fluid? Do you recommend OEM transmission or regular transmission like from Castrol?
Just bought a 2013 sh-awd tl with 97k miles on it. The car is perfect except its a little sluggish going downhill and not as good as coasting as some of my previous cars. Is this normal for the car?
Well informative video! Would you recommend an 09 TL?
What happened when you changed the fog lights to LEDs?
hello I'm looking to purchase a 2012 with 140000miles. i test drove i and it felt great.. any advice i should knw before i purchase?

You can I rebuilt an 09 from a wreck and used a 2012 front end no problem. But my dad simply painted his front grill and rear piece below the trunk black clear coated and everything looks great. That would be the better easier route. Looks very sporty as well
I had recently bought a 2012 tl awd elite pkg 223000km on it for 8 grand but already noticing the oil consumption issue and there is a knock/ping that still haven't figured out already changed the spark plugs and engine oils
I brought a 2012 TL sh-Awd with 101,000 on it . And yes! I've noticed it's an oil drinker
If you brought the car within the year I think the warranty is still valid to have the piston rings changed
Curious: what octane gas do you use in your Acura? Manual calls for 91, but I notice some say 87 does fine. Thoughts?
Actually, the manual "recommends" 91

Suspension, brakes, and tires, sure. Engine is a standard Honda motor so i don’t think it will be expensive
Im SERIOUSLY considering a 2012. but im concerned about gas milage as they get older and its premium gas. What is your opinion on the gas milage?? im hoping to get one on a good deal as the coronavirus has stalled the economy for a bit.
I used to run regular on my 09 maxima with no issues and it required premium
I have 2012 tl sh-awd with 125k and can confirm the gas mileage sucks in the city. I average about 15-17 mpg in the city. About 25 mpg highway tho. Definitely need to use premium gas. I had a guy pump regular gas mistakenly and the engine started knocking when applying throttle. Went away right after putting premium. Great car tho. I love it!
Is the timing belt replacement really neccessary? I'm coming up on my schedule 8yrs to do it. But the car runs like a sewing machine. No problems.
If you don't replace it, you're putting your engine at high risk. If the belt breaks, bye bye engine.
@@tayumapower ok thanks!
@@tayumapower I had this happen to me. The car still drives just fine. Wish it didnt happen but when Acura did the rebuild they "forgot" to replace it.

One thing i have to ask, can you connect a modern phone to the Bluetooth and play music from spotify or any sound out of the speakers?
I can confirm that it does work with modern phones and Spotify. I have a 2012 tl with about 125k and had no issues with playing Spotify music through Bluetooth. Only annoying thing is there is a delay. If you click play/pause or change song, you won’t notice it for about 3 seconds. My girlfriend has iPhone 11 max and it works just fine with the car

Depends how much money u want to put into it and the condition its in, Main things to look out for is oil burning (a common issue), see if timing belt has been changed, front suspension issues, and transmission. I would say the biggest issue with high mileage TLs is the oil burning, mine burns about a quart every 250-400 miles give or take how im driving. Mine is on the extreme side though.
No keep looking
Did you ever have oil burning issues with the motor? I have a 2010 3.7 and it noticeably consumes oil with only 115k miles.

Other than that runs great, Recent problems ive had within the last 40,000k miles have been alternator, starter, code P2646 (rocker arm actuator and VVT solenoid sensor) and recently my front axle. Only issues i’ve had. Great car
@@user-bi2me1kj7p yours isn’t good if it’s burning 1 quart of oil every 200 miles
How can I get too Bluetooth on my 2009 tl
On Amazon you can get a Bluetooth receiver for like $20 if not less that work great. They just plug into the aux or USB and work great. I have one on a 2008 tundra and it works flawlessly
Looks amazing!
Anyone change the timing belt on this car ? any advice go to dealer or use aftermarket kit?
I got mine changed from Tripple a at 100,000 miles
2:12 farted loud af😂
Hahahaha
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bruh😂
would you consider it to be a fast car?
Honestly no
Not fast but not slow. I just got a Mercedes E550 with the 5.5l v8 which is a fast car
The car is Fast & with upgrades it'll get even better
It’s quick, but not fast
It’s good in acceleration and turns in the corners for a mid class luxury car
What tires do you use on the TL?
Got Bridgestone turanza tires still got great with 52k miles
Quite tires too
26 mpg?! god damn i cant even get 15 ☻
I get 17mpg with my sh all-wheel-drive 2009
I get anywhere from 16.8-19 mpg. depending how i drive 19 average is the highest i get
@@user-bi2me1kj7psame I get around 17-19 on 93. I do let her breathe sometimes tho
Is it burning oil?
the 3.5 doesnt burn oil,its just the 3.7 that has oil consumption problem.The j35 is a rock solid engine.
Do you guys think a 2014 Acura TL is better than 2012? or there’s not really a difference
Not really a difference
@@JohnSmith-yr6je I realized that a long time ago lol
@@392jesus9 lol did you happen to get the TL?
@@JohnSmith-yr6je yea a few weeks after I posted that comment I got a 2012 tech TL with like 65k miles. I still have the car and also bought a charger scatpack like a month ago
@@392jesus9 damn hella nice. You still enjoy your TL? I’m definitely thinking of getting one soon or an S5.
Is it RWD or FWD
FWD but there is an AWD model aswell
There’s is no 4th gen rwd Acura lol
How the hell you get 27 lol I get 24 in a good day
