I'd have to disagree with the dealer about it being normal for the car to take a while to start, regardless of it has sat for a couple of days.
 
From my limited and admittedly anecdotal experience with my own '04, I've never had this problem. The OEM battery is kind of weak for the car, but the car always cranks the first time, and my car routinely sits for five days at a time due to my having access to a company vehicle.
 
Hope you are able to resolve your problem.

I have to agree with you. we have had cars that sits for many days and they always start with no problems. My tsx sits for a few days to a week at a time and it always starts.

Yeah the first 3x I went in they told me it was normal. I just kept going back until they found something and a reason for why it wouldn't start.
 
It's not normal at all, they lie!
 
*waves fists at Acura* You know I still get upset when I see Acura commercials, I got a semi-lemon.

I wouldn't blame Acura, but I would blame the stealer...

sounds like a lousy service department to me. when we owned a 98 eagle talon bought new the engine light was on. We brought it back to the selling dealer and the service advisor blamed it on a loose gas cap. It would go back on and we would make sure the cap was tightened. we took it to another dealer-it was not the cap there was something else wrong with it. They fixed it under warranty. Needless to say we never went back to the selling dealer. The s.m was very rude and unpleasant.

Radio/climate control butons!! by gmaco

When driving my 2004 tsx I noticed a Strange burning smell inside the car. Later when I turned my lights on I noticed that the buttons for the radio and climate control were not lighting up, strangly only the buttons are not lit. The display for the radio/climate control are lit. Is this a short or is it just a fuse??

2007 TSX - dashboard rattle/creak by ihammer

Hi fellow TSX owners,
I got a 2007 TSX last month and have about 1700 miles on it. I commute 80 miles per day round trip to work and the last two days when I've left the garage at work to drive home I've experienced a creaking or rattling sound in the dashboard which sounds like it's coming from somewhere near the "A" pillar on the passenger side. It is worse when I accelerate and it continues for the entire drive across the city and then for several miles on the freeway. About 45 minutes to an hour into the commute home, the noise stops. When it is happening it is very irritating and needless to say the drive is no fun at all - just stressful. It can even be heard over the radio. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this in his/her TSX and if so were you able to have Acura fix it? Thanks in advance for any replies!
  
PS. Aside from the dashboard rattle/creak the car is very nice and I love driving it, but I won't live with a brand new $30,000 car with a rattling dashboard. No new car regardless of the price should have a rattling dashboard.

My 2006 a.s. TSX auto has 1100 miles on it. I have no rattles at all, but my 2004 Accord V6 developed a squeak/rattle in the passenger A-pillar after 5 or 6 months.The dealer popped it open, glued it and put in a small shim. That was 2 years ago and no problem since! Try getting your dealer to respond the way my Honda dealer did. (Victoria BC, Canada).

I had the exact same problem on my early 2004 TSX when I first got it. I brought it to the dealer, and they were already "aware" of this problem. Your dealer should be able to fix it easily.

I had the same thing happen to my 2004 TSX (minus the burning odor). The dealer first replaced a fuse, which did nothing and then replaced the entire module. This included the CD player, so make sure you remove your CDs before going to the dealer. Otherwise it will take several weeks to get them back. Since then all has been well.
