| I have a 2007 acura tsx automatic and the transmission makes a clicking noise whenever you come to a complete stop and then start to move again. acura has stated that all of their transmissions make this clicking noise all the time, however it is not normal for automatic transmissions to do this and no other car i have ever owned makes this noise. i've also done my research and all acura tsx automatic owners from the 04-08 model years experience this clicking problem. the problem seems to be a bad shift lock solenoid and bushing. some owners have had acura fix the problem only for it to come back in 10k - 20k miles. there should be an investigation into a recall for this. i am sure it could lead to more issues with the car further on. | |||

| I own a 2007 acura tsx. there is a squeaking noise coming from the steering column that is getting progressively worse. the dealer claims that acura knows about the issue, but as of yet does not have a solution. many owners have blogged and posted comments regarding the same issue on various websites. i am surprised that acura has not done something about this. *tr | |||
