Q: acura................?
theres a acura car that made 150 thousand mile n itz 1994 for 2 thousand dollar.... is that good can the acura take alot of millages

A: its still reliable my 94 integra has 250K+ miles and it still runs great. that was one of Honda's goals when he started his company

Q: How many miles should a brand new Acura TL have when it comes from the factory?
Im buying a new Acura TL and i was wondering how many miles an Acura tl has when it comes into the dealers lot. In other words, when its coming from the factory.

A: I used to work for a Honda-Acura dealership. When they would come off the truck, the most I ever saw one have on it was 2 miles. That is the most that any new car should have on it.

Q: Are there any advantages to selling at an Acura dealership comapred to a lower priced KIA?
I have a job offer to sale cars at a KIA store and an Acura store that requires a college degree. The Kia store is full of salesman that smoke on the lot and dress very unprofessional. The Acura dealer has professionally dressed salesman and smoking on the lot is not allowed. Is the money better at higher end dealerships or is the only real advantage atmosphere?

A: the acura store will pay you better in commissions. there'll be a wider profit margin between cost and retail (the gross). the cheaper a car is the less profit margin the dealer has on it. a 12000 dollar car only has around 100-300 dollars in margin in it as opposed to an acura that might have 3 or 4000 in margin. if you get paid 20% commission then you can clearly see which will pay you more. of course, if the KIA store has a wild bonus program and you can work it properly you may be able to make the same money as the acura store but then the atmosphere comes into play. if it was me i'd work at the acura store. just keep in mind that you'll need to know your stuff cuz the typical buyer at the acura store will be highly educated as opposed to the buyer at the KIA store.

Q: How can i convert my 1992 Acura Integra from automatic to Manual tranny?
Converting 1992 Acura integra from auto to manual How do i do it and can anyone help me on how to start this project. Please i need answers asap.

A: Honestly you can get a 96-97 GSR for the price of the swap. There is way more to this than just swapping the tranny. Your total cost of doing this and doing it correctly is about $5000-$7000. You will need tranny, tranny mounts, axles, flywheel from the manual car, ECU from the manual car, COMPLETE wiring harness from the manual car, shift linkages, shifter, shift boot, center console to accept the shifter, the three pedal assembly because the size and placement of the brake in the automatic will not allow the clutch pedal to operate properly, clutch master cylinder, hydraulic lines, and someone that has done this swap before. I cannot stress this enough GET A PROFESSIONAL TO DO THIS!!!! You will be putting your life as well as others at risk with a junk install and used parts.

Q: Why is my Acura hard to start when hot?
I have an Acura Legend 1989, a very nice and reliable car until now. Sometimes (50% of the time) when I make a quick stop (at the gas station, for example) the car will not start again until after about 20 minutes. I replaced the spark plugs, the wires, the distributor cap and rotor. I change the oil regularly. I add an injectors cleaner regularly. Have you had a similar problem with your vehicle? Is there any sensor that needs to be replaced? What do you recommend besides getting rid of the car? I know the problem is not the starter because the engine moves while trying to start the car.

A: The reason your Acura won't start when it is hot is because of the main relay under the dash. In warm weather, the relay will heat up causing it not to respond. this relay controls the fuel pump. no fuel, no start.go to your local honda or acura dealer and purchase the part from them. i deal with this on a daily basis at work, a honda dealership.

Q: What type of light bulb is a 2000 acura integra highbeam?
I want to know what type of light bulb a 200 acura integra, if it is the same as the low beams or not.

A: no, go to the auto parts store and they will look it up for you

Q: How to sound proof the interior of my 1995 Acura integra?
It is old and the upholstery is torn a little bit. I am planning to just do some minor fixups for the torn upholstery. While I am at it, is there anything that could be done to reduce the external road noise inside? Basically, if I have to listen to music inside the car, I have to play it at the high volume. Any suggestions for sound proofing and how much it would cost? It is a '95 Acura Integra - fabric interior Thanks

A: you can pull all the interior out of it and use a product called dyno -matt,its sound proofer and does work really well ,its pretty expensive though but well worth what is cost.you can find it at this web site,they have plenty of it,i use it and i like the way it does,,good luck with it, http://eastwood.com/

Q: I have a 92 Acura Legend and I was wondering what is the best oil to use?
My 1992 Acura legend is my baby with 176,000 miles and I'm really trying to see what I can get out of it for performance. I'm working on putting in a new air intake and a new exhaust system but before that, I'm ready for an oil change... My friend told me to switch over to synthetic oil to help clean out the engine and get it running better. He told me to change the oil with synthetic for like 3 oil changes then continue with a synthetic blend. I'm willing to pay the money for it but should I switch over to full synthetic? If not, what should I use for performance? Thanks for your help! It's really appreciated! Well thanks for your answers... Yes it is a 92 and yes it does have 176k miles on it but its an engine that will last another 100k to 150k if taken care of well. The body is still in good condition so why not fix it up? I'm not asking for a racing beast or anything, just something where I can punch it and it has a really good kick to it... ALSO oil does make a huge difference in a car's performance... I'll stick with 5w-30 mobile 1

A: stick with 5/30 any brand will be fine synthetic is a waste of money oh that intake and exhaust is also a big waste of money too is a 92 with 170k

Q: How many miles should an Acura TL have if it has not been test drove by anyone?
Im buying a new Acura tl and the guy says that the car already has 31 miles. Is this how it should be if it has not been test drove by anyone?

A: For a new car straight from the port to a dealership after PDI it should not have more then 10 miles. The Acura HAS been test driven or used for a few lunch runs. Its YOUR new car, be picky. No more then 10 miles and in the color you want and dont let them change your mind or DX (dealer exchange) one in for you because lot attendents are brutal on cars.

Q: How can I make my 91 acura integra faster?

Q: Is it possible to trade in a salvaged 2000 Acura?
Looking to possibly trade in a 2000 Acura tl listed 'salvaged' in Seacoast area of NH. The transmission needs to be replaced for a 92,000 K(est.) 2000 Acura 3.2 tl. I don't have money to replace tranny and i feel that the best way out is to get a newer used or newer car. I have an existing car loan as well.

A: Good luck Most dealers will not take a car that is not driveable UNLESS you are willing to let it go for $100 towards your trade in. Salvaged title will hurt you too. Still owe on it....they can add the amount on toyour new loan

Q: Are the transmissions on a 01 acura mdx attached to the engine?
I heard that the transmissions on an 01 acura mdx are permanently attached to the engine, so if the tranmsissions would need to replaced, i would have to remove both the engine and the motor to relace the transmision. Is that true, or is there another way to remove the transmission without removing the engine also with it?

A: They are not permently attached but by bolts yes they are. Depending on the type of repair needed, you might have to pull the whole motor out to work on the tranny. But that is nothing different, all cars are like that.

Q: How much is it to do an Manual Conversion for a 96 Acura Integra?
How much is it to do an Manual Conversion for a 96 Acura Integra?

A: If you're planning on converting your car from auto to manual, the best(and easiest) way is to just go buy one with the manual tranny. You'll be MUCH better off. You'll need a LOT of parts to do the swap. You'll need the trans, obviously, but you're also going to need the shifter, and shift linkages, a new pedal assembly, the clutch hydraulics, a clutch, etc. By the time you're done with parts and labor, you're dropping a LOT of cash. Just go buy one with the 5 speed.
