About 10 years ago, Battery drain and replaced battery 2 times. Then researched it and found via descriptions a heated area corresponding to the HFL module. YouTube video showed how to disconnect it. The garage door link as well as hands free phone never worked and the GD dealer insisted I didn't know how to program it. Found a TSB or Recall on the 04 module and Acura wouldn't do anything for me. Went all the way up the chain with the same response from them ie FU. I have set up several corporate networks as well as building my own PC's so I know what I'm doing. Their CS sucks. They insist that we are wrong and their POS units just dont work and they want almost $200 just for the module that they even admitted and have proven was faulty.
Starter went out at about 170,000 in 2018. Dealer wanted $1200. YouTube video and $65 for new one from Amazon and 1 hour to replace. Dealer closed down within a few months. Ripoff.
