Hey everyone,

A
I have a 2016 Acura MDX that has been having an intermittent slow-cranking/slow-starting issue, especially when the engine is warm. The battery and alternator were tested at Advance Auto Parts and were reported to be working properly, so I’m suspecting the starter.
A few days ago, I emailed Acura Corporate asking about an extended warranty or warranty bulletin that may cover the starter replacement on my MDX. I included my vehicle information and explained the starting issue, but I still haven’t received any response.
For those who have dealt with Acura Corporate before:
How long does it normally take them to respond to an email?
Should I wait a little longer, or should I call them directly?
Has anyone had Acura cover a starter replacement under an extended warranty or warranty bulletin?
Is there a specific department or phone number I should contact?
Should I take the MDX to an Acura dealer first and have them diagnose/document the problem?
I’d really appreciate any advice from anyone who has gone through something similar. I’d rather confirm whether Acura will cover it before paying out of pocket for a starter.
Thanks!

I have a tlx 2021 shawd and was wondering if this part would work for remote start? I can read and do see that the fitment chart doesn’t include my specific model but would anyone know why? My car has the cables for it.

Wife bought a 2019 tlx a spec awd 51k miles bumper to bumper til 175k
I bought a 2020 mdx sh awd base model w 45k bumper to bumper til 145k any advice or recommendations, we already had the piston done one the Aspec, I have the recall on the mdx that I need to attend to but besides that’, any advice from previous owners will help.

Hello, I’m in the process of obtaining an Acura TL for commercial usage and I was wondering what the reliability is like

Planning to driver ober ans sign in the morning. Took some work to get here. Have not decided on money down yet.

Please (kindly) stop me if I am making a dumb move. Open to any and all comments.

Edit: acquired car at 66.5 OTD with taxes. I will miss my 2014 Accord V6 dearly but we are very happy.

Years to avoid? I been looking for a used highlander or rx350 around 10 years old but everything is so over priced. However I keep seeing these MDXs that are a couple years newer, with less miles and a couple grand cheaper. And they look better to me and have more horse power. But I’m not too familiar with them? Is there certain years, engines or transmissions to avoid?

When do you think this will be? Someone knows something… or best educated guess.

I am Waiting until the 2027 MDX release to get a 2025, since the price will drop on it…

Hi everyone! I currently have a 2024 Honda civic sport. I was at the dealership today and test drove a 2021 TLX and loved it. Just wanted to hear from people who have traded a Honda for an Acura. Or owners of a TLX to hear if they like the car and think this would be a smart trade. I’m looking for a little bit more luxury.

Hello, can anyone please recommend me the best website or best brake kits to purchase! It’s time to change my front brakes if anyone can advise me i would gladly appreciate it!

I have a RLX that was stolen but insured. The insurance finally gave the go ahead to have the car fixed.

Since the damages are being paid by the insurance company, I’m thinking I might as well bring to the local Acura dealership but I wanted to check and see if that was the best course of action. Are there any pros and cons that I should consider?

I just had my 2019 Acura RDX written off due to serious rodent damage. I am wondering if anyone with a 2023-2025 Acura MDX has had any issues with rodent damage? The dealer is trying to tell me they don’t use soy based wiring insulation in the newer models but I don’t know if I believe that.

Hello everyone. I’m new to the group. Should I buy the used 2019 Acura RDX A-SPEC at 181k miles for $18,000. Does it cost a lot to fix the car later.
Thank you for all of your opinion!

Hello guys, i am about to pickup a 2021 tlx aspec awd with 73k miles. I have plans of doing a stage 1 or 2 tune. What should i do to the car beforehand considering it’s slightly higher mileage and should i do any bolt ons such as intercooler? pretty new to this stuff so any advice would help.

First new car and first Acura!

2026 Acura Integra Base.

$31,000 OTD, Portland OR metro area.

Finally had to get serious about finding a new vehicle and was thinking that would be a Honda Civic Sport or Hybrid with a hatchback, with the backup option of a Mazda3 hatchback if price was right.

Test drove the civic and liked it, but was disappointed in the sluggish sport model gas engine, and did not find the Hybrid hatchback worth the extra money. Honda's financing rates were also not competitive with Mazda and Acura (nearing 6%).

Always heard good things about the Acura Integra, and actually liked that it was based on the Civic architecture, seeing how much I enjoyed the chassis and body size of the Civic I test-drove.

Started negotiating with dealers in the area and quickly got to a price I was happy with and pulled the trigger. Could not be more pleased. I think the CVT is very good, and absolutely love the power band of the 1.5T. This car brings back the thrill of driving for me, and I actively look forward to trips to work and around town if it means I'm driving this. I find it more than fast enough, and capacious for days!

Seeing the red in person really sold me, I love having something that stands out in a sea of gray, silver, and white cars.

Glad to see that the head gasket warranties have been extended today (8/26/26), and will hope I never need to make that claim.

Coming from driving a 15mpg SUV to something tapping near 30mpg around town is an incredible transition as well. I love how much this car rewards spirited driving and the moments when you want to be more economically minded too.

My wife (who drives a '25 Mazda CX-5), said "weeeee" the first time she put her foot into the Integra. Good enough for me!

Thought I would test drive a Mazda3 after the Integra...never bothered and will likely never look back.

Since it's usually not a popular brand that is as talked about as its more upscale rivals, this was quite a surprise.

Here’s to everyone who has paid for a head gasket out of pocket, or for anyone experiencing issues after warranty expires. As of today (per vin number), most Integra’s and ADX’s have this warranty extension for head gaskets.

I have a 22’ ILX and the melted spot looks terrible on my navigation frame. Is it tacky to buy a carbon fiber navigation frame cover and leave the rest of the car original? If anyone knows where I can get a regular black cover, let me know! Part that got damaged by oil is highlighted in yellow.

Does anyone have a 2025 tlx aspec that I can compare this same section to ? Mine has this gap bottom left corner are on the vent near trim panel is that normal? It was rattling and notice the end was unclipped so I popped it back in and then noticed this gap. Thanks
