I have a 2005 TL that is six months old with 10,800 miles on it.  For a few
months now, there has been a noise that comes from the engine only when you
accelerate, and I think it is mostly heard when the transmission is shifting
gears.  It's kind of a metallic noise...maybe something with the valves.  I
am taking it to the dealer next weekend, but I was just wondering if anyone
else had experienced this and what I should expect.

There are a few sporadic interior noises and a squeaky driver window that
bother me as well.  Otherwise, I love the car.  It's gorgeous and fun to
drive!

Jennifer I own a 04 TL and yes it sure is a great car. There is a lot
of discussion on engine noisee at acurazine.com a very good forum for
3rd gen acura. Read here, and you might find some answers.

It is very possible that the issue is a loose heat shield.  The same
issue occurred on my 2004 TL.  I had to go round & round with the
deaker to get it fixed.  Outside of the car being a rattle trap....yes
it is a nice car.

Honda & Acura have laid down on the job recently when it comes to
quality.

Are these cars still being built in the US?

I just bought a 2005 with 11,500 miles on it and have notice something
similar.  ALthough it comes and goes.
