I’m currently leasing a 2022 ILX Aspec which goes back in a few months. I’m considering an integra a spec with tech but needed some opinions.

(Before people say to get an s type, I don’t drive stick and it’s a bit out of my price range)

I test drove the integra once so far, didn’t seem to have as much pick-up as my ILX but did feel stuck to the ground which was nice for corners. I didn’t really have any other car options so I feel I’m settling for the integra without giving other cars a chance. Those who own integra’s can I get your pros and cons? Also open to some similar car options within the same price range to get some ideas. Thanks.

Have been looking for 2020 MDX w/ tech packages and they're difficult to find with good maintenance history. Many of them have 40k miles and 1 oil change during the last 4 years.

Do you wish you had gotten the Tech Package?

I picked up a 2025 MDX A-Spec and I'm having an issue where the next or previous change track buttons only skips through the current song in 15 second intervals INSTEAD of going to the next or previous track. This is when using the built in Spotify app.

Is there some setting I'm missing here or is that how they're designed? The steering wheel controls work just fine.

I got a 2019 TLX (v6 3.5lt) nearly 6 months ago, it’s great… or so I thought. It’s got about 58k miles on it and the transmission bucks and the ac compressor is making a whining noise (sounds like a bad wheel baring). Acura won’t even fix the fuel pump recall saying “we haven’t gotten the parts” since I got the car in August. I got a recall fixed on it for the rod bearing so that’s not an issue. But, is anyone else having all of these issues with their TLX? Could the ac compressor be something caused by the fuel pump not being fixed? Also, does anyone know about the warranty for the transmission issues? I’ve heard about them, but until diagnosed Acura refuses to tell me if the warranty is real or not.

Copied from Acurazine website:

My goal is to get all MDX, TLX and RDX owners from 2021 to 2024 full screen carplay/AA. With the RDX 2025 release having full screen and still keeping the touchpad and non google UI, the update for earlier models should be easy for Acura to implement. They might already be planning it but in case they aren’t, I want to give them a push. Also, since Acura is a North America company I think we have a better chance of getting through to them.

Here is the plan and where I need help. Feel free to provide ideas besides saying buy a 2025 (some of us can’t afford to buy a new car)

One of the easiest ways to grab their attention is to write them an email - https://www.acura.com/contact-us. The more of us that email them, the higher chance that our feedback is heard!

Another member from this subreddit created this petition https://chng.it/dSmkbrHXFP - Its up to 301 signatures! Please help to sign this. This will also help with part #3 of the plan

I will reach out on LinkedIn and email to some of the people in their headquarters in Torrance, CA to bring this to their attention and show them the petition. If anyone has good leads, please share them with me

I will be posting this everywhere that I can think of - mdxers, FB, Redditetc to gather as much support as possible. I will provides updates from time to time if I hear anything back from Acura

Where do you guys put your car keys? I had an audi q5 that had an ignition slot for my keys. BUT I just got an mdx and realize I have no designated spot place my keys in the car….or did I miss it? Ehhh no big deal obviously but just curious….

2021 Rdx SH-AWD, A-spec. Everyone say Hello to Black Berry haha !

I am sharing my experience with Acura Sherman Oaks so that others avoid similar mistreatment. I was in the market for a family-friendly SUV and I zeroed in on the 2024 Acura RDX because it appeared on a number of prominent safety lists. Due to our child care needs, my husband and I visited the dealership separately to test drive the vehicle and obtain pricing. The sales associate at Acura Sherman Oaks provided my husband with a significantly lower price than me on the exact same vehicle. The only difference is that I am female and my husband is male. I insisted they honor the lower price and purchased the vehicle.

Eight days later, my brand new 2024 Acura RDX had a complete electrical failure in the middle of Ventura Boulevard with our 2 year-old daughter in the backseat. All systems failed (including the brakes, engine, all wheel drive, etc.) and I was unable to accelerate. It was a terrifying experience. After I pulled over to safety, I had the car towed to Acura Sherman Oaks via Acura Roadside assistance. The tow truck operator said he had never witnessed this type of failure in connection with a 2024 model. My husband drove me to the dealership when I was greeted by another sales associate. Instead of leading with empathy after this distressing experience, the Acura Sherman Oaks sales associate requested that I complete the Acura online survey and rate the dealership with a "10" for excellent service so as not to affect the holiday bonuses of the sales team.

The general sales manager provided me with a 2-day loaner vehicle while his services team evaluated the vehicle. The next day, the services team informed me that the total electrical failure of my new car was due to a relay (electrical switch) that was installed incorrectly. They replaced the part and told me my car was ready to be picked up. From this conversation, it became clear that quality control was not conducted on my vehicle thereby jeopardizing the safety of my daughter and me.

I insisted on a replacement vehicle because I did not feel safe in the car I purchased. The general sales manager suggested 3 vehicles as an alternative, two of which were priced at a higher tier (ace package vs. tech package). He assured me that, if I chose a car in the higher priced tier, he would "honor the same deal" as my original vehicle. The next day, I came to Acura Sherman Oaks to complete the paperwork and, upon my review, realized that the monthly payment for the replacement vehicle was priced significantly higher with a higher APR. It is clear this was not the same deal as the general sales manager represented during our phone call. In response, he told me that he instead meant that he would apply the same discount but to a more expensive vehicle. I found this explanation unpersuasive. After another 2 and a half hours at the dealership, I left without a replacement vehicle. In addition, the general sales manager refused to extend the loaner vehicle nor would he agree to keep my original vehicle at the dealership overnight while I sorted the issue with Acura corporate.

As of the writing of this review, I am told by Acura Sherman Oaks that they have no 2024 inventory and are unable to replace the vehicle. In response to my request for an extended warranty due to the early failure of my vehicle, the best they said they could do was to give me the warranty for their cost. After all, I was told, they are running a business. I have asked several times to speak to Chris Pack, the manager of the entire dealership, and he has never returned my call.

I have owned multiple cars and I have never been treated in such a disrespectful and hostile manner by any car dealership. It is clear that Acura Sherman Oaks does not prioritize the customer or safety - it's all about their bottom line and they will do whatever they can to buffer their margins.

2016 mdx. Only one key. No spare. The key is in a bag on passenger floor. It must’ve locked behind me. Came back to open the door but it’s locked. Any ideas how to open with one key.

I’m have a weird noise which my mechanic hasn’t been able to find the last 2 visits to. It’s sounds like metal thunks or something bouncing off of metal and then now it also has a squeak that sounds like maybe shot suspension? But he has not been able to find the problem and it’s only getting worse. Any idea what it could be? The noise is coming from the front left wheel area. I have a video of the noise but can’t post it here

Just purchased a Performance Red Pearl 2025 Acura MDX A-Spec Advance so thought I would share some pics:

It’s a 2021 Acura ILX Premium A-spec, really love this underrated car.

Looking to buy some used rims, was wondering if they’ll fit. The bolt pattern is 5x114.3.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a dash cam that's compatible with a 2024 Acura integra A-spec?

The issue I am having is my current dash cam in order for it to work, my WIFI has to be on. However for my Acura's Carplay in order for that to work my WIFI has to be off while having bluetooth on.

I got my oil changed from an Acura dealer on Saturday and while driving home to a different city on Sunday, I heard loud scraping noises while on the freeway.

Contacted the original dealer and told them I can’t make it back to them in this condition. They told me to send pictures and if they own up to the mistakes (which they have not yet) they will take me to an independent shop for repair and won’t be an Acura dealership. I feel like this is extremely shady of them. I would want the damages fixed by a dealer properly. I’m wondering what my options are.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks for your time!

Hi all. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I have a 2015 TLX (v6/tech), and recently neither of my keys are really connecting to my car well. I need to press the lock button multiple times or walk all the way back to my car and hold it right next to the car to get it to lock. I’ve changed the batteries in both fobs. One time I couldn’t get the car to start because it wouldn’t recognize the keys. One fob seems to work better than the other. I asked the service advisor and he told me to keep the fob close to my heart to help with the signal…

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Hello everyone, before anyone says anything yes I’m aware about the rdx gas milage being absolute dogshit. Every car has its own optimal speed which keeps gas milage going good without sacrificing speed.

I was wondering if any owners who have had time playing around with it can let me know. My commute is pretty decent with open highways so I don’t need to be speeding 24/7 and can afford to go slower.

Thanks very much in advance for the help! Have a great rest of your day

I'm someone who prefers to slow down by lifting their foot off the gas. I HATE people that ride their brakes on the freeway for no reason. So I'm curious if I look like that guy riding in cruise control and my car decides to slow down.

So I have a 2008 tl that “says” it’s getting 30 mpg with the way I drive (mostly highway) but I’m just not seeing it. It takes me about 10 gallons to fill up from near E and it says I can get close to 400+ miles on a full tank but I’m only seeing maybe 300 on a good day. Is this fairly common or?

I’m looking to get out of my beater car and upgrade to something newer. I’ve been looking into the 2019-21 RDX base.

I want to know how these cars are from a reliability standpoint and the real life fuel economy. I drive about 40km each way to work, 90% highway.

Maintenance isn’t an issue for me, i would be changing all the fluids as soon as I got it.
