I figured out a way to keep my fix-a-flat kit under the floor of the trunk with the spare tire kit. The required modification took about 5 minutes. I bought the spare tire kit last year, and I was disappointed that it didn't have a good spot for my fix-a-flat kit. I don't like using slime in...

Thank you!

I sometimes have issues getting traction with just the 1.5. I would expect that a wheel/tire upgrade is needed in addition to the engine output mods.

My kit was ~$240 and the tire was ~$130 plus mount and balance and tax brought the whole thing to just over $400... Below is an image of where I put the foam stickers. That was my best guess about where they should go. The rest was pretty obvious.

Yes, the kit #06421-3S5-A10 comes with everything you mentioned, plus a sticker for the wheel, rubber-foam pads for the wheel well area, and a new tire pressure sticker for the driver's door jam. I bought a Continental tire from the local tire shop. Their mounting fee includes a basic valve...

I just bought a kit from my Acura dealer, had the Continental put on, and installed it. My kit came with two sets of the miscellaneous bits (door jam sticker, wheel sticker, funnel, foam spacers, valve stem, and the wheel hold down bolt / hub spacer). If you or anyone else wants the extra bag o'...

That's nice that NC does that. I believe that Ohio requires that you have a tag.

I live in SW Ohio, so I can't begin to appreciate what SF traffic is like. But, you asked what I'd do. I would wait for the type S. I generally prefer lighter cars for daily drivers. I've never driven a TLX. It's probably a very nice car, and it'd probably be a better choice for a long drive...

My vote would be for a toggle switch. Set it and forget it.

So how would the VSA cause the damage? Pulling timing would have reduced the chance for detonation. Would the tires have hooked up and over-stressed the drivetrain?

What a pain! It really sucks to spend so much on a vehicle and not be able to enjoy it. I hope the engineer can run down the issue for you. I wonder if it's hardware or software? Thanks for sharing the bad and the good of the different vehicles!

I'd ask the dealer. Is that pin hardened (yellow tint)? I'd be concerned that it could go to something important.
