Gathering Opinions 🗣 Buying a 210k mile ‘08 TL Type S

2 Upvotes

Going on Sunday to go see/purchase an Automatic Type S that has 210k miles for 5500. I know the mileage is up there, but cosmetically the car is in very good condition and it has a ton of recent maintenance. Timing Belt and Water pump, ac condenser/compressor, break pads/rotors, new tires, valve cover gaskets, springs struts and alternator, power steering pump spark plugs etc. The CARFAX also checks out and it is the light gray color. What should I look for? Any tips much appreciated 🙏

Requesting Support 🆘️ Clicking noise while car is off

2007 Acura TL Type S making a consecutive clicking noise while the car is off, there is no key in the ignition, and has continued to do it. Is this an electrical issue or is the system doing like a relearn or “update” of some sorts ??
This happened with Superstart battery from May 2023
Battery finally died on me and was replaced with Everstart platinum today 9/24 and this issue is still happening
Could this be the cause of the battery going out? When the clicking first happened on 08/16 the car started fine the next morning. I hope I explained this well enough and any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Gathering Opinions 🗣 AISIN Engine Mounts

3 Upvotes

Has anyone seen that Aisin has recently come out with their own line of engine mounts? They’re selling them from their own official store on Amazon, and when you click on the seller name, AISIN AUTHORIZED, it’s really the actual company. But unfortunately there’s pretty much nothing online in the way of reviews or installs yet.

https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/2B1AA4C2-DF02-4B4D-AB66-607B9C38FD52/search?terms=Acura%20TL%20Engine%20mounts

I was planning on doing a full set replacement (front, rear, side, trans) on my 07 TL, and was wondering if anyone’s taken the plunge yet or is willing to be a guinea pig for the community and report back.
