1. OEM BABY

2. I got a 06 TL and I put my OBI ll scanner and had misfire codes, so I did the valve cover gasket and put NGK spark plugs, when I cranked it it started but real rough and shaking with low idle for 15 sec and it shut off. Now it won’t start, it just cranks over but no start?? I hooked up my OBI ll scanner and now I show no codes- it reads 0 codes but my car won’t start?? 🤷‍♂️Do you think it’s fuel related?Any help would be helpful. Thanks everybody.

3. Anyone with reviews or thoughts on Idemitsu atf for Honda transmissions?

4. Does this service also go for the 3.5 V6 that the type S has

5. Thanks for this, very good detail, explanation and camera work. I have an '04 TL with 355K miles (bought with 170K 9 years ago), which has recently been running rough at cold idle (fine once warm or while driving), and has stalled a few times recently when cold. I've changed the plugs and debating what to check next? The codes thrown have all been cylinder misfire, which have been mostly clear now since changing plugs a few weeks ago. If you were near WI I'd just bring it by for you to look at, but open to any suggestions…

6. I've had 3 v6 hondas and i still learned alot from this video. Thank you for recording this service!

7. So I drain out all the transmission oil out an refill it 3 times? Mines is pretty dirty got it a month ago also it shudders from 40 to 20

8. I just want to buy an old TL watching this, a manual – just so I can get it up to speed and fix it up

9. Hey Eric! I’m coming up on 195k miles on my 2005 6MT TL. If I’m getting an engine code for “too rich in bank 1”, should me next major service cure that issue? I.e. through a valve adjustment, new timing belt, etc?

10. I bought the same tires for my tl They are great.My old rear tires wore on the inside too wore out after 45k

11. Eric, do you recommend changing the ATF the 3×3 way you mentioned or all at once like you did here? I'm planning on buying one of these in the future and it's something I'd do.

12. What he spray it with the clean?

13. Fo me, a paint correction is included in my major DIY services.

14. Eric, why no antiseize on the spark plugs thread?

15. This is awesome. I have a 2006 Acura TL in super mint condition, but my wife took it to Jiffy Lube whiel i was away and they conned her into changing the Transmission Fluid… (god know what they put in there) its driving good, only drove it 20 / 30 miles since, but i'm going to take it to acura on friday to do a proper transmission fluid. Thanks for this video!

16. Having all the right tools for the job makes the job so much easier

17. never I repeat never put oil on the threads of ANYTHING unless specifically stated in the service procedure you will be guaranteed to over torquing whatever you are tightening which could lead to snapping or breaking whatever you are working on. Just don't do it.

18. Cuánto litros de anticongelante le pusiste ?

19. Do a video on the Vcm system!

20. Eric buddy, I need help with my transmission issues in my 2006.

21. Thank god you exist

22. I just got a 04 TL. Thanks for all the info. BTW, is it OK to just leave off all the plastic covers above and below the engine?

23. Dangit. So thats why the oil plugs be wrong. Several times ive changed oil and the book or site says 15 etc and it actually ends up being a damn 14 or 16. I cant stand that.

24. 23:55 ‘Step bro what are you doing?’

25. Задний сальник коленвала надо менять.

29. This offends me as a quick lube employee (not naming which one, but iykyk), I always replace honda/Acura/kia/hyundai plugs with 17 mm replacements thank you

30. Bro, fuck yeah.! Good ass video. That's hilarious, I had no idea about the Transmission not having aa filter, I've been confused because I got a filter from the store lmao

31. nice video. lucky when that oil funnel fell over, you didnt get oil inside of the rad. You left it uncapped. oh well.
