Recently my 2004 Acura TL has been cutting off while I'm driving. The lights stay on and everything, which leads me to believe that it is not a battery-related problem. The car will restart with no problem but the same problem occurs.

Clean throttle plate on both sides with choke cleaner if it continues scan for codes and check fuel pressure with a gauge. Also check pgm relays if you have them for corrosion.

Cleaning the throttle plate as you advised seemed to have done the trick. So far the car has not been cutting off while driving as previously. Thanks so much for your advice.
