The Bridgestone EL42 on my 2006 TL seem fine - ride, handling, traction (wet and dry) are all better than what I expected. Granted after reading all the bad things about the Bridgestone EL42 I expected they would be pure crap - but go over to the Tire Rack web site - and read the reviews - most are very good. I normally replace the stock tires on the day I buy the car - straight to Discount tire - they will give you about a $100 credit each (good idea to talk to them in advance). This time I decided to keep them - glad I did. |

I have a 6-speed TL with the A-spec package. I know that the stock engine set-up includes a cold air intake, but I am investigating aftermarket Cold-air intakes. Dyno results have shown 5-13 hp increases depending on the brand(according to the manufacturer's testing). Just wondering if anybody has gone this route. I know the engine will sound differently; any discernible difference in power, MPG, torque? |

Hi, I have an 06 TL 6 speed and was wondering if anyone else has ever towed with one fo these cars. I know it can be done and there are many towing hitches available online for them. I am considering getting the lower rear bumper spoiler as well as the other lower body spoilers. I was wondering if anyone has a trailer hitch on a TL with this lower spoiler on the rear bumper or if it would not be possible to install due to hitch and bumper clearance issues. Thank you for your help. ~Tom

Replying to: bdemarr (Aug 07, 2006 8:09 am) I did check with the dealer when I was buying the car. I will only be towing a waverunner with it which weighs about 650 lbs with the trailer. They said since you could easily have over 650 lbs inside the car if it were full of passengers, they didn't see any problem with it. Anything larger than that and they said it is not recommended since you could cause overheating or drivetrain damage. The owners manual says they don't recommend towing, but the dealer said that manuals are written by lawyers and their main concern is being sued by someone who tows something too big and causes an accident or something like that. Thanks for your help and have a great afternoon. ~Tom |

I just got one of the last of the '06 TLs. I didn't get the navi mostly because I want a navi that's linked to real time traffic that can reroute me according to tie-ups etc. I know the '07 has that capability, but couldn't see springing for the '07 price and the navi. Now I'm looking for an after-market navi/gps that is voice activated and tied to real time traffic. The only one I can find is a product called Novogo which is not available in the US. I think Pioneer makes one too that has to be installed in your dash... don't want to touch my dash. Any suggestions? |

Does anyone know if the iPhone from Apple, Inc with Cingular service will be compatible with the '06 TL? Even if it ends up not being compatible, I believe I must have one. Thanks!!! |

Does anyone know what kind of cable to use to plug in the ipod nano into the car?
