2006 Acura TL
My friend is looking to buy a 2006 Acura TL. I was wondering if anyone knows of any common problems with them, or anything to look for when buying one? Everything I've seen on the internet seems like their all pretty solid reliable cars.

Tires wear fast, tranny problems. Outside of that, solid Honda car.
When I was at the CTS-V thing, there was a guy talking about how he had sucha problem with his TL with some sort of vibration problem that they could never fix. Honda of North America gave his money back. He ended up buying a 530i, and then just traded that in on a G8 GT, his first American car.
