Making a new thread here just for reference.

(after doing this for Honda models for years) I finally got around to buying an Acura subscription so I could snarf all of the contents into an index available here: https://unknowntransportation.com:8443/Service/TLX/
If you try to use the index with your normal browser it's not going to work. You have to download this copy of firefox portable first and browse with that: https://unknowntransportation.com:84...nfoBrowser.zip [I wouldn't recommend using this browser for other tasks...at this point it's fairly outdated and probably has security flaws that have since been fixed]

I also put in 2020 since that's the last of the 1G and the instructions really don't change very much within a gen of Honda/Acura.

"2021 TLX Electrical Wiring Diagrams (EWD)" is a particularly handy if you're trying to do electrical work.

Example of 3.0T engine removal:



Sometimes the Print view works best so if something isn't clicking or working right, try it:


(Also, sorry in advance if stuff loads slow...the index pages and whatnot are being hosted out of my laundry room. So if my internet goes down, stuff will temporarily be unavailable.)


FAQ's:

"Can I get this as a PDF" - In theory you would have to write a script to automatically click and print through all of the pages. There's a guy on Civic forums who I think had some luck doing it, but I've never bothered to look that deep into it. I highly recommend Print-to-pdf of pages that you're likely to use a lot (oil changes, ATF fluid changes, etc)
"I'm getting an error You are not authorized to view the content on this page." - You need to use the TechInfoBrowser download or else that's what happens.
"XYZ link isn't working" - This isn't a 100% comprehensive working service manual. I aimed to get as much working as I could of "big picture" stuff that people might commonly do in their garage. I didn't spend tons of times trying to make really nitty gritty pages work where most people are going to go to a dealership anyways to have fixed.
"When I click a link inside a link it doesn't work". - This is sometimes a problem. Try using the print-view button on the top level page where it may flatten out and work, or go back to the index and try to find the page you want directly there.

Thank you for making this available....do the Wiring Diagram links work? I can get to and see all other information using the TechInfo Borwser, but the wiring diagram links seem to just sit there and not retrieve any information after the initial screens?
