Expert Answers about Acura TL


  • Hitch Pin Hole to Outer Most Edge of Bumper Measurement on Trailer Hitch for 2003 Acura TL
  • We have not had the opportunity to install the Curt Hitch # C11290 on a 2003 Acura TL, so this measure is not available. If you could measure from the hitch pin hole to the outer most part of the bumper with the hitch that you currently have, I can see if we have a rack that would fold using your current hitch. Also knowing which bike rack you have now would be helpful.

  • Is A Converter Required For A Vehicle Wiring Harness On A 2009 Acura TL?
  • On your 2009 Acura TL a converter is indeed required so it appears the Technician was not truthful. A converter is required when vehicles have separate wiring meaning the brake light and turn signals are sent along different wires. Since trailers use combined wiring in which the brake light and turn signal are the same wire a converter is needed. For your vehicle I recommend the Hopkins # 46255 which plugs into the existing connectors on your vehicle and uses its own power wire that...

  • Can a 4 Bike Hitch Bike Rack be used on an Acura 2005 TL
  • While you could use a Class I compatible 4 bike rack like # TH9025XT in the hitch on your 2005 Acura TL, you would be limited to 2 bikes when using the rack. This is because vehicles with Class I hitches can be damaged by the weight of the bikes being placed to far away from the back of the vehicle. The amount of torque that is applied to the hitch and vehicle frame is increased substantially as weight is added farther away form the vehicle. The only benefit would then be the ability to...

  • Recommended Transmission Cooler for 2003 Acura TL
  • Transmission coolers are not vehicle specific; all you need is enough space to fit the cooler. I recommend checking out the Derale Series 8000 Plate-Fin Transmission Cooler Kit # D13502 which measures 11" wide x 7-1/4" tall x 7/8" deep and will work for you so long as you have the space and your 2003 Acura TL has a 3.2L V6 engine. I've added a link to a video review and install video of this cooler for you to check out as well.

  • Fit of Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633 on 2006 Acura TL
  • According to Yakima, the FullBack 3 will indeed fit your 2006 Acura TL. To carry womens bikes or bikes with sharply angled top tubes or step-through frames, using a frame adapter like part # Y02531 is recommended. The adapter spans the distance between the seat post and the handle bar gooseneck, and provides a level attachment point to the bike rack so the bike has greater ground clearance and is not carried at an angle.

  • Will the Thule OutWay 2 Bike Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2011 Acura TL
  • I checked with Thule and the OutWay, # TH45JV, is listed as a fit for all models of the 2011 Acura TL. A spoiler is only going to be a problem if it interferes with the rack installation. No part of the rack, including the retractable cables on the rack, are allowed to touch (put any weight on) the spoiler. If any part of the rack does then you cannot use it. Thule does not test the racks on models with spoilers so they cannot guarantee fit. I have included a link to a video review of...

  • Will the Draw-Tite Hitch # 24755 fit a 2006 Acura TL with a A-Spec Lip Kit
  • I did some checking and it looks like the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch # 24755 that you referenced will fit on a 2006 Acura TL with a factory A-Spec lip kit. I also found out that Acura does not recommend you tow at all with this vehicle and I could only safely recommend you carry a bike rack. I attached an installation video for this product for you to check out also.
