I recently purchased the car with 27k miles and within 2 months of owning one I had the heat alert alarm go off. I pulled over and found my coolant tank was bone dry. The car is still under warranty so the dealer is not charging me to fix the head gasket but I was wondering if there is significant risk of permanent cylinder damage that will crop up later when the car is no longer covered by warranty?

My preliminary research on reddit shows me that this seems to be an (unfortunately) somewhat common issue. Any advice from those who have experienced a similar problem and managed to avoid permanently costly damage?

I drive only highway, use 93octane fuel, and the car has regular service records prior to my purchase.

Thanks for any advice I can get, I am kind of in shock that this type of failure could happen so early in the car's lifespan =(

I currently have a 2004 MDX with 190K that I’ve had for 10 years. This thing is a tank. All I’ve done besides basic maintenance is a power steering hose, engine control module, and an alternator! It starts up first crank every time even in -10 degree weather. I’m looking for something that will give me the same reliability and longevity. I know everyone has different experiences so opinions will vary of course. But are there any rdx/mdx generations, particular years, or types you would recommend I absolutely stay away from or that have known issues/recalls? Or any that you’d recommend that have been good to you. I’m considering 2017-2020ish but am flexible. Thanks for any input, much appreciated.

Hello everyone!! I wanted to make a post here since it seemed like the most topical place that has any kind of community. There’s a clip I’ve been looking for that was posted on TikTok. It’s an up close shot of an Acura GTP pit stop during an endurance race taken at nighttime.

That’s all I really remember about it but I’ve been looking for it for hours and can’t find it so I figured I’d make a post asking for help.

As the title says I’m looking for some speakers to replace my car speakers. I bought my 2014 TSX, with the tech package, second hand and I’m looking to replace all four door speakers and both tweeters because they clearly have some damage (They randomly start popping and sound like static or have no audio going through them at all

Does anybody know of good replacements for the door speakers and tweeters without needing to upgrade the amps? I have very little experience working with my cars speakers and I don’t want to mess with the wiring or an amplifier at all. Any advice or suggestions is appreciated

Hey u/Acura, why is Client Relations denying a goodwill claim after a catastrophic fuel pump failure stalled my car in live traffic? This dangerous stalling happened AFTER prior recall work. Safety defects shouldn’t be a "too bad" situation. Review my claim again! #Acura #AcuraMDX #AcuraRDX #AcuraTLX #CarSafety #HondaRecall u/NHTSAgov

My 2024 RDX With 27000 miles is due for service. The code is A127. oil change, tire rotation, air and cabin filters ( I do myself) and the 7 is change the brake fluid. When I called my mechanic to make an appointment he said changing brake fluid at that mileage is crazy and a money grab from Acura. I trust this guy and have been using him for 25 years. He never steered me wrong or looks for extra work. He is as honest as they come and all my cars over the years have been maintained well. My previous RDX I traded in with 150000 miles on it. He said the brake fluid should be changed every 5 years. Why is Acura recommending a brake fluid change with so little miles on the car?
