Q: Acura Mdx???
there is a way to look at traffic rports of nav screen for 2008 acrua mdx, but how do u do it?

A: We got an RDX, and neighbors got an MDX. I am 95% sure that the free XM subscription does not comes with Navtraffic. If it did, it would be obvious.

Q: How many miles do ACURA MDX's usually run until they start having problems?
I want to buy a used Acura MDX with 80,000+ miles and want to make sure it will last at least another 100,000 miles. I know the TL and RL generally last a long time.

A: Acuras and Hondas last as long as you want to drive them and maintain and repair them. My wifes 1997 CRV has 196,000 and my 2002 RSX S has 135,000. Both run AS NEW. Her engine is a little noisy when its super cold until it warms up. Old skool thought was v6's outlast 4cylinder cars because the engine is under less stress. So if properly maintained MDX should go until you get sick of it. My sis has a 02 MDX with 140,000 runs awesome. They did have the tranny repl under warranty though-thats the only problem Ive heard about the Automatic honda/acura in V6 is some had tranny problems like 1998-2002ish years. To the guy complaining about the RL-if you get a car loaded with gizmos, sometimes they will have bugs. Ask any BWM, Mercedes, Audi. VW, Caddy owner about electricl bugs, they all have them. Fix it and move on-this guy is asking about real failure like engine/tranny.

Q: Where can i find a plastic cover for the passengers side tail light of a 2005 Acura MDX?
Someone smashed into my car while it was parked on the street and broke the plastic cover of my passenger side tail light on a recently purchased 2005 Acura MDX. All i can find is the entire light replacement (around $150)-- is there somewhere I can find just the plastic cover?

A: bone yard

Q: Where is the FTP sensor located in the 04 Acura MDX?
Does anyone knows how to fix the code P0452 on the 04 Acura MDX?

A: The FTP (fuel tank pressure) sensor is located near the fuel tank. It is mounted on a bracket and has an electrical connector and two hoses connected to it. To troubleshoot the code you need a scan tool to view the computer data while you test the sensor in several different conditions. Lacking a scan tool and the knowledge to perform the troubleshooting, the only thing you can do is locate the sensor, inspect the electrical connection and the hoses for problems and then replace the sensor if they are ok>

Q: Does the 2003 Acura MDX have safety latches for a car seat?
Does the 2003 Acura MDX have safety latches for a car seat. My Chevy Suburban Does have them and it's a 2001

A: Yes, it's the law

Q: can anyone tell me what kind of gas is good for acura mdx?general or premium?
i am planning to buy acura mdx but i just came to know that only premium gas should be used for it?is it true the manual says premium but many people are saying who have previously owned mdx are saying that midgrade would be ok for it and it says premium recommended not premium only

A: Putting regular unleaded hurts the combustion chamber of a engine that requires premium. The fuel combustion temp is set by the octane rating. I think you should use premium only

Q: how much does it cost to get a mirror put back in it's socket in a car - acura mdx?
i hit the mirror against the side of the garage and now the mirror is popped out so it wont rotate when the button inside the car is pushed. its a acura mdx, a nice car, but how much would that cost. it shouldn't be to much.. right?

A: Did the actual mirror break? Try taking it over to a local shop and ask how much they charge to do that, it shouldn't be much... try doing it yourself.

Q: Did the Acura MDX come with the option for both the DVD and Navigation?
I am looking to buy a used MDX. I can't seem to find one that has both navigation and factory DVD. I have been looking at the 2005 and 2006 models. Anyone have any info? I know they started offering the technology package, but that wasn't until later (2007?) Thanks!

A: Actually, there was an option for both. This is an example http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Acura-MDX-NAVIGATION-TOURING-4WD-NAV-DVD-ACURA-CERTIFIED-ONLY-49K-MLS-LOOK_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ42600QQitemZ350162652303 that has both the DVD and NAVI. I believe it's called the MDX Touring package w/ Navigation. You might have a hard time finding one if they are "rare"... and if no one's selling one. In '07, the MDX offered the tech (sport) / entertainment (Navi/DVD) package.

Q: How much does a 2001 Acura MDX sideview mirror cost to replace with labor and everything?
I just hit a mailbox with my car while swerving for a cat in the road. the only thing damaged is the sideview mirror which hit a mailbox.

A: Call the Acura dealer and ask. They can give you an EXACT quote.

Q: What are good after market modifications for 2005 acura mdx?
Please let me know if you have any suggestions or websites to help .. I do want to put the navigation/ stereo from touring model but im not sure if it will fit in my base model

A: i think the only thing they do to the touring model is make the faceplate where the stero goes is make it bigger. i think it will fit if your get that faceplate.i no theres no performance parts maybe a diff intake but thats bout all and ive seen a few black mdx's with diff rims that look ok
