Hi,
I have a 2007 TL Type S and it has 66k miles and is an automatic. I purchased it about 2 months ago and never paid attention to gas mileage until recently. I only get about 175 miles for an entire tank of gas!!!! Horrible! I should get getting closer to 300 for an entire tank (20 average mixed hwy/city with a 15 gallon tank). Something is seriously wrong here.
I love this car a lot but the 175 miles total for one tank of gas is 12mpg mixed hwy/city. Really?
When I bought the car I had it inspected at the Acura dealership and everything came up good except timing belt which I an on changing soon. I then took it to my local mechanic and they couldn't find anything wrong (no fuel leaks, etc.). I even changed the oil.
One thing I will add is the car came with an aftermarket cold air intake. Would that seriously take the gas mileage down from 300 to 175 per tank? I though air intakes would increase gas mileage!
Has anyone experienced this on their 07-08 TL Type S and if so what did you did to get it back to a 300 mile range????
