2004 Acura TSX User Reviews

Pros

Appearance, power & performance, fuel economy, most features standard

Cons

Poor audio system

Another awesome performance sedan from Acura. However, my car has 16k on it and I have been to the dealer 5 times due to the 6-Disc CD player malfunctioning and the speakers poppin. Not a so-called 'premium' sound system by my standards. Other than that, phenomenal car.

Pros

Can't go wrong with this car.

Cons

They need to take a look at the vibration on the steering, and RPM jumps when you turn wheels.

Great car but has few minor annoying issues. Brakes when you hit a small bump do not brake well and it feels like you are not stoping and it skips. I was wondering if any of you found this as well. Also did anyone feel vibration coming when you start a car? Also did anyone felt like RPM was moving when you turn steering wheel? I did not had this when I had Honda Accord.

But otherwise a car is great. Eats too much gas though. Sometimes I get 17 miles a gallon sometimes 30....read morehide

Pros

Very well balanced in acceleration, braking, and handling

Cons

Fit is below expectation for Japanese car

This is the nicest car I've driven. It also has the most bang for the buck. If you like to drive, I recommend the manual transmission over the automatic. As fine as automatics go, the manual still offers a substantial thrill in acceleration and engine reving. I have had four small to moderate built people and a baby fit in the car comfortably. In the first six months though, I have had the blower fan replaced due to a squealing sound and now have a problem with a creaking noise which I believe is the windshield moving when going over any roughness in the road. Service did not recognize the fan problem without me pointing it out to them when I was about to leave. Creaking noise still hasn't been recognized by service, though I hear it with increasing frequency. Edmunds.com also shows other owners with other fit problems. I had other Japanese cars without problems in their first year....read morehide

Pros

Comfortable, good milage,great power.

Cons

Rides a little ruff

Overall I love the way my car looks and drives. My only complaint is that the ride is a little ruffer than my previous Integra. Also just because I'm a tall person I wish the seats were a bit longer. It is one classy auto and a great price for all the features it came with.

Pros

Excellent value for a 200 HP euro style sedan. I am 6'5" and comfortable in it.

Cons

Ride is a little firm

Outstanding car. Good to see Acura building a sedan that is such fun to drive. 6 Speed makes the car a thrill to drive. I am used to much higher horsepower cars, however, I love driving my wifes car!! You can't go wrong purchasing the TSX. White, 6 speed, no GPS.

Pros

Great Ride, Great Gas Mileage,

Drive this car everywhere. Have 46,000 mile in 1year & 4 months and the care rides better than when new. Best car for the value.

Pros

Good fuel economy..Great Style..Nice easy drive..Great turn ability

Cons

None

I love my 2004 TSX...This care is great..the navigation system is awesome..The ride is very smooth and comfortable. Great fuel economy local and interstate. I purchased the pearl white TSX..love the color of the interior.

Pros

Has enough power to get you where you want to be. Good fuel economy. Good sound system.

Cons

Have had some problem with wind noice on drivers side window

Very stylish to look at. Good size space in trunk and back seat. Dependable and affordable.

Pros

good value for your dollar

Cons

too bad don't have a V6

Have mine for 6 months. Fun to drive. Good power (200HP) from a Handa BEST L4 engine, but wish it has a V6. Also owned a Accord V6 for 3 months before this. True... TSX is the Accord in Japan. Driving comfort and power (with V6) the Accord is little better than the TSX, but the handling and driving experience IMO, the TSX is a lot better. TSX also 100% make in Japan (BIG PLUS). Not the Accord. Finally, TSX has a better look(It's a head turner), better sounds system, better warrenty, more toys. Price is about $1500 more than the Accord V6 w/xm. Love it!...read morehide

Pros

best Acura I have ever driven, there is nothing I would change

Cons

it's only a 4 cylinder, but it sure has power.

I bought a 2005 5 sp auto with Nav. it's black, I love this car, boy you sure get girls with this thing, it's real smooth you even get satelite radio for 3 months for free, you get heated seats and even heated mirrors. Navagation is great. the leather is a real good quality.
