To change transmission fluid on a Acura 3.2 TL you must first check the existing fluid level when the transmission is hot which takes 15 to 20 minutes of driving.

Recheck the transmission fluid and add more if necessary.

Replace Acura pollen filter 2006 Acura TL?
Nonspecific question. Yes, you should replace them. Time, every 30K or sooner if driving in an area that is dusty/dirty. The HVAC pollen filter blocks dust/debris that enters the vehicles cabin from the outside air. Also blocks particles that are recirculated from inside the cabin when changed from fresh air to recirculate. Another way you would know to replace the filter is if there is an odor from the dash vents or if the air from the dash vents is weak. Just like the filter on a homes HVAC system.

an acura technician , I think on this site. ( I have to find him and send him $15 bucks!) He had line drawings, and missed only that you need a torx # 8 tamper proof wrench to take the retaining screw out. Apparently, someone on the internet used needle nose pliers, which I suppose would also work.
