I noticed under the specifications on the 2005 TSX that they lowered the EPA gas mileage estimates to 21 city / 30 highway for the automatic. The 2004 was 23/32. Anyone know why? Did the engine performance change at all? On my 2004, my worst mpg has been 22.5 and 35 mpg best. Just curious...

Bureaucratic red tape BS?

I've wondered about that too.

I can only guess that they saw that they were wrong in ever thinking the automatic got better gas mileage than the manual.

Strange, because that idea was so unusual that you'd think they would've made sure they knew it was true before making a point of it.

I'm still so happy with 23mpg/32mpg in MT6. My 04 ML500 is sucking too much gas.
