#24 of 33 Diesel in 2009 TSX? by repoman1 Feb 13, 2008 (8:44 am)
I talked to a local Acura dealer. He confirmed what we already know. The 2009 TSX will debut in March at New York auto show with availability in spring. He said that the diesel is one of the engines listed but Honda has not told them when or if it will be available in the 2009 models. They have not been given list prices yet.

#28 of 33 Diesel TSX will be 2010 model year by repoman1 Apr 24, 2008 (12:30 pm)
Talked to a dealer today. He said the 2009 TSX has just arrived - and ready to test drive. Also said that Honda has told them diesel and 6 cylinder will be available one year from now - on the 2010 TSX.

Replying to: repoman1 (Apr 24, 2008 12:30 pm) test drove the 09 while my 06 was being serviced. It was a basque red pearl 6MT/w tech package. Wish it had a different front grill (I guess it is something you have to get used to). I was impressed on the way it handled. Unless diesel prices come down- I do not think it is going to be a great seller. For the driving I do the 4-cylinder tsx works for me. I do mostly highway driving,get great gas mileage with enough power on my 6MT.

Replying to: repoman1 (Apr 24, 2008 12:30 pm) Unless there's a shift in typical MY changeover the 09 TSX will have an 18 mo run. Other than launch years, the TSX MY changeover takes place in Nov. so don't look for any changes till 11/09. The diesel addition might be the only change at that time.

Replying to: biker4 (May 04, 2008 8:47 am) Any good guess what the expected mileage of this TSX diesel will be here in the US? I am sure we can look at this CDI engine implementation in Europe and come up with a fair approximation. Any one here has done this research? Can we expect to get 40mgp or higher on the highway with the four cylinder diesel? Replies to this message: flats (Jun 11, 2008 5:11 am) coupedncal (Jun 12, 2008 8:25 am)

Replying to: coupedncal (Jun 10, 2008 12:46 pm) Here is a nice short article about the diesel European-market 2007 Accord, aka Acura TSX. It returned 53 miles a gallon highway, 34 in the city (Manhattan) and 44 in combined driving.    http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/motoring/2004433293_dieselhonda23.html?syn- - dication=rss Replies to this message: coupedncal (Jun 12, 2008 8:25 am)

Replying to: flats (Jun 11, 2008 5:11 am) Thanks for sharing this link. It was a good read. Looks like the diesel offering will see light of day in early to mid 2009 as a 2010 model. Based on here and other site readings, I believe diesel will start off in Acura line and then tinkle down to Honda lineup 1-2 years later.
