2005 Acura CL review from North America
"Smooth, sexy, beautiful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The check engine light came on 3 days after buying. It's been over a year and I still can't figure out what's wrong. Checking the codes it says that the cylinders are misfiring, but I have never felt such a thing while driving. I've changed the rotors, caps, wires and it hasn't gone. Seeing that there is no affect on the performance, I have ignored the light, it's probably just a short circuit.
General comments?
The car is smooth and soft. The leather seats and the interior are meticulous. I really love pretty much everything about this car.
I wish this car was a little quick, it's pretty slow for what it is. May be because it's really heavy.
