So I have had a 2002 RL i bought from my brother for about 4 years- i have liked the car but am ready to move on.
last year the mpg degraded horribly, getting about 13 MPG hiway.
Does anyone have any thoughts on what is causing this? Already had mechanic change spark plugs and clean injectors, i am thinking maybe oxygen sensors? Before I take it to acura dealer for $149 diagnostic, i would welcome any input!!
In addition there has been a long term whine in the transmission, which is most noticeable under 30mph and then again around 65 MPH. A mechanic told me there was an Acura update regarding this issue and added something to transmission fluid, but i didnt notice any long term change.
There was also a dead odometer panel for a long time- I just got that fixed, but in the process, they broke the cover piece for the steering column. it now looks like the pics below.
