The 2001 RL received few changes from the 2000 RL. An emergency trunk opener was a new standard feature, joining the new features that had been standard in the RL since 1999: side airbags, high-intensity discharge xenon headlights, and a beautiful interior.
The engine for the 2001 RL remained a 3.5-liter V6 rated at 210 horsepower and 224 lb-ft of torque. The 2001 RL requires premium gas, and gets 19 miles per gallon during city driving and 24 miles per gallon during highway cruising.
Not surprisingly, drivers complain about the disappointing mileage and cost of premium fuel. Most drivers are very happy with their 2001 RL's; they love the comfort of the interior, and find the appointments to be very stylish. They also like the performance, citing superior handling, cornering, and braking as some of the RL's best features.
I have a 2001 Acura RL with 106,000 miles on it. The dealer wants me to spend $2k and replace the timing belt and water pump. I'd rather wait another 50,000 miles or until the belt breaks, but I don't know if that will cause engine damage (if the belt breaks)?

I have a 2001 Acura RL after driving it if I park for like an hour or so it won't start when I turn the key all the lights come on and everything else comes on. I have to turn the key back and forth numerous times to get it to start. I just had the ignition switch changed yesterday and it is still doing the same thing today. Any suggestions on what to check next?
