The throttle lag. It's my physical analogy of what it feels like the computer is doing. Imagine the sponge compressing between your foot and the pedal. You know your leg is moving and you're expecting the cars to accelerate a certain way but the sponge compresses removing most of the force...

When I got the car, I think it was the third drive where I forgot to put it into Individual mode(Sport+ engine) and I had this huge moment of panic/regret as I drove. It felt like I had a sponge between my foot and the pedal where as driving it home it felt decent. I was temporarily disappointed...

I'm fairly certain it's engine braking you're feeling. Personally my Lauda butt monitor tends to think that in Comfort mode the computer both retards the delivery of fuel when you push on the gas and keeps it flowing when you quickly let off the gas so it gives a smoother ride. In Sport+ mode I...

For our southern brothers and sisters here, "beloved broadcaster" is pure sarcasm. Think NPR but on woke steroids of "Won't someone think of the children" and "I'd like to speak to the manager" If anything this is pure propaganda put out by the Canadian Ministry of Truth, intended to vilify the...

I forget the statistical rate but I think it's something like 10-1 where generally (absent of a true fault/defect) there will be 10 happy silent owners of any product per complaint voiced. It's because when you're angry/disappointed, you go ot of your way to voice it and fix the issue or get...

Sure the body type is not exactly the same but it serves Acura no purpose to have two of the same car feature wise. There are many point which I hope to discuss in video format but a few of the most prominent ones, maybe not here in the forum, but certainly across the Internet where the ITS is...

I've started to just drive and use the auto disengage feature. Works well enough that I've stopped taking it off by depressing the button.

Good article. What irks me is the amount of complaints of missing features on the ITS that are available on the TSX Types S. Why would any car manufacturer make 2 basically identical cars, so IMHO Acura did the smart thing and made the Integra its own lane. I hope to make a video reply on this...

This! If not, is there a potential that your battery is low, not drained completely but enough that it's not giving it the full juice needed?

Up for grabs for one lucky Canadian forum member, I got a code for $20 CAD off from TUXMAT. M44C-M1V4-R7F6 I love the mats, but their marketing department is a little wonky in the head. I placed the order on March 4th and today I get a generic email with the subject line "We've missed you"...

There's an ongoing discussion about this in the winter thread and I'm with you, I want to park it for winter to save it from rusting out. If I didn't keep my Civic, I was looking at buying a $5k-$8k CRV, driving it for the winter, shining it up in the spring and seeing if I could sell it for a...

To each their own but for me it's too special a car to have it rot away because the morons in charge think salt is the best winter solution. Mine will not be a full on garage queen, I am going to drive it like it was design for, rain or shine, but it's getting sealed up with desiccants the...

This all but guarantees that my car is never seeing a single winter. For your sake I hope it just ascetics and nothing more.

I appreciate the kudos. I couldn't pass up the opportunity and I had the means so I made it happen I gave a shoutout to Acura Canada on Twitter and they're going to feature it on their page supposedly. I hope to continue producing content throughout the summer. I'll be sure to post it here.

Is this a question or a confirmed statement? The selfish part of me really hopes this is true, that the matte gray showed off on the refreshed TLX Type S will be replacing Lunar Silver Metallic, the kind part of me hopes they do continue it because it's an awesome color. Like I've mentioned...

Wanted to share here for those that don't frequent the LSM thread. It's what I did with my ITS yesterday.

Behold my pale horse. Same photo, first one is more stylized, second is more true to life.

RIP for the free windshield washer fluid. :p

My Car History: My parents bought a base model Civic in 2000 and it was handed down to me in 2010. Drove it for another 3 years before my girlfriend (now wife) had a fender bender. The hood was curled from the middle and I could stick a fist into the engine bay above either headlight. I was a...

There are two stages for QJ setup. There's pulling it out of storage and then there's sliding them underneath the car/aligning them. The first step is highly variable. Some people store theirs fully connected, some even keep it under where the car is parked which means they only need to slide...
