I have an 04 TSX 6spd with 45,000 miles. I am currently on the 3rd clutch master cylinder. My clutch pedal squeaks from time to time, and also become a bit notchy right off the floor. This is why the dealer has replaced the master cylinder 2x already. once at 18,000 and again at 41,000. It STILL occasionally has the problem. The dealer is willing to take care of me after my warranty expires in march. (Some threats and bad reviews of the dealer/service manager to Acura corporate helped secure that.)
Has anyone else had similar problems with a creaky/notchy clutch pedal?

no problems (knock-on-wood) with the clutch on my 06 tsx, now 13 months old with 33,000+ miles. the service department where I take my car for service has a excellent service manager and advisors. They go out of their way to be helpful.

I have a "05 TSX 6spd and my clutch has gotten stuck in reverse twice and I had to turn off/on the engine to get it back to 1st. gear. Dealership check it out and states that they can not find any problem. Is anyone else have such a problem?

what is a reasonable cost for the 30,000 mile service? My dealer quoted me $720.00. Are all the items necessary?

what are they doing for $720.00-hope alot more than what I paid $200.00 for my 30,000 mile service (B12 service) It included oil/filter change, rotate/balance tires, replace air and pollen filters, check fluids and refill if necessary, check out car, hand wash and vacuum it. I got to use a loaner car while my tsx was being serviced

2008 Acura TSX with Navi

Currently, I am leasing the 2008 Acura TSX from August of 2007, and it has about 12,100 miles on it. I have it leased for 24K per year for 36 months. However, would it really make a difference if I get my tires rotated, and balanced, and alignment at a local firestone store, and not by the Acura dealer?? Only thing that I do is get an oil change at the dealer, so atleast that way they can re-sent the maintenance minder. Any suggestions? I think my car needs balancing, and alignment. Please advice. Thanks...

you do not have to go to the acura dealer to get service. At the rate you are driving you will probably have to replace your tires before the lease is up. I get the tires on my 06 rotated and balanced by the dealer every 6,000-7000 miles. Never heard of a 24K per year lease-may I ask what your payments are. I average 30,000 miles a year so I buy my cars. (no lease)

Nj2a2nc: Well, I have the 24K per year for 3 years on my lease agreement. The reason why, because my work is about 45 miles one way, and I rather have a lease and add up the miles on a "lease", car. However the tsx that I have is a 2008 Tsx with Navigation. I am paying between $400-$450 per month which includes taxes. Let me know what you think. So, I guess it doesn't really matter where I gete my tires rotated, balanced, or Alignment? So far, I have about 12,100 miles, and needs balancing on the car, or should I get the tires alignment? Thanks..

The main reason I do not lease is the reason you lease. If you are happy with your choice then excellent, I love my Milano red/eb 6spd w/nav. I drive from NC to NJ/PA and back every few weeks (650 miles one way+the extra miles while I am there) From where I live in NC I have to either drive to Wilmington (25 miles one way) or Jacksonville (40 miles one way)to go shopping. Because of traffic it is faster to go to Jacksonville.
In May we are going to travel to CA via the southern states in the tsx. Last May we did a 20 state tour (6,177 miles) NC to SD. Our goal is to see every state.
Just a suggestion, unless you hit a curb or went thru pot-holes-only get the tires rotated and balanced. I have it done by my dealer as they seem to do an excellent job. I used to take my cars to sears. always had to go back 2-3times to get the tires re-balanced. I would never pay $400-450 a month leased or otherwise.( IMO) My payments are for 60 months at $200.00 but I pay more to pay it off sooner.
