Questions About Acura Rdx Used

Mark asks…

Used Acura RDX vs. New Honda CRV?

I can afford both and I don't really care about the performance, it's just the badge and design of the Acura, but realistically and everyday practicality, which one is better?

admin answers:

If you wait until the end of 2010 when the 2011 Acura RDXs come out you can get a HUGE discount on one. It is still new, even though the 2011s are out.

Lisa asks…

what oil does acura rdx use?

how many quarts?

admin answers:

Any 5W-30 oil (Mobil 1 is the best but not required). Takes 5 quarts since not changing the oil filter just lets all the containments back into the new oil.

Since the RDX is turbo-ed your best bet is going to be getting a 6 quart box of Mobil 1 over at Walmart.

Mandy asks…

how much is too much to pay for a used car payment?

if i get a used 2008 acura rdx with no more than 30,000 miles on it, how much would be too much to pay per month?

admin answers:

How much are you paying for the car? Is it a fair price (check with www.kbb.com)? How much down payment are you making? What will be your interest rate (depends on your credit score)? How long will the loan be (in months)?

You can get the answer to your question by plugging these numbers into a car loan calculator. Here's one you can use:

.

Carol asks…

can you use regular gasline on Acura RDX?

admin answers:

No it requires premium because it is turbocharged. If you put regular in, the knock sensor will start to go off and your car will retard the timing and you will have poor performance. That poor performance will get you less gas mileage and in the end you will lose the money you tried to save. No engine damage will result because your engine knows how to react but it will only cost you more. You bought a RDX, obviously you have money. 20 cents more per gallon will not break your wallet

James asks…

Why is there no Saturn division in the "Cars and Transportation" section?

Here is the list:

Car Makes:

I don't see Saturn on there. There are other GM makes, but not Saturn. Why?

admin answers:

I have asked the Yahoo Answers Staff before and only got an e-mail back stating they "...have reviewed [my] request..." That was about three or four months ago.

I've responded to similar questions three times before, and I still believe is a reasonable explanation: "Vehicle Racism":

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AiB6w26O.oo42PZp9NpkFmHsy6IX?qid=20070612205606AAnmzIu
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Au_OIoXw_sU0i_tvmaU_TkXty6IX?qid=20070531200251AAyE8SR
http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkBQF6h6ps1kOYHVKylEYWLty6IX?qid=20070421110544AAMQVVl


Here's the text of the very first response I made:

It's called vehicle racism. Saturn and Cadillac get shafted.
While it is a fair argument to say Saturn and Cadillac are both subsidiaries of GM... I also feel they deserve their own category... I mean, look at that makes you have on Yahoo Answers:

Scion gets it's own category, yet it's a Toyota Subsidiary.
Acura likewise has its own category, yet it's a Honda Subsidiary
Inifiniti gets it's own category, yet it's a Nissan Subsidiary.
Audi gets it's own category, yet it is a VW!
Lexus, likewise is a Toyota, and still gets it's own category.

I say it's automobile discrimination! I say, I say, Saturn! Should get it's own category! Same with Cadillac.

I don't believe everyone will agree with me, but Cadillac is to GM what Lexus is to Toyota... So what's with the unfairness?

I don't think Scion and Saturn are of the same variety or category... But if GM did have a Scion, I think Saturn would be your best analogous species.

Donald asks…

What is a list of four cylinder 2 door cars?

Questions About Acura Hatchback 2000

Lisa asks…

can you put a JDM K20A Type R Honda Accord / Acura TSX Engine Swap,on a 2000 honda civic hatchback dx?

admin answers:

Yes you could, its simple its called a K-series Swap in a EK civic.

It would be expensive and wouldnt pass california smog tho.

Sandy asks…

with $2000 can i make my 98 hatchback honda civic dx faster than a 99 acura integra gsr?

admin answers:

YES! You absolutely can make it faster than a GS-R...if your engine is in good condition. You'll need to do a compression check and possibly a leakdown test, to make sure it's healthy enough to handle more power. You'll have to turbocharge the engine. Don't expect a big amount of horsepower, but you could easily make 200-220 whp with a simple DIY/homemade turbo kit. Junkyards, classified sections of message boards, ebay, craigslist, swap meets, and local classified ads in newspapers or auto/auto parts trader magazines are your best friend. You can easily find used parts for cheap. And 200whp is more than enough to beat a GS-R with basic bolt-ons, and even aftermarket camshafts.

Check out these websites and do a LOT of research. Seriously, the more you learn, the more you realize how little you know, and how much more there is to know. Research, research, research.

Helen asks…

Is it OK to use synthetic oil in my Integra?

I have a 2000 acura integra LS hatchback with 87000 miles on it. Is it ok or even preferred to used use synthetic oil or a blend?

admin answers:

Depending upon the severity of your Winter's and If your car sits outdoors ant length of time, the switch to a full synthetic motor oil would be a smart move. Full synthetic 5W-30 pours nearly 18 degrees Farenheit lower than regular oil. Mobil1 5W-30 pours @ -52 degrees below 0 Farenheit. Cold starts is where 80% of all engine wear occurs. It's to your advantage for the oil pump to force as much volume of oil to critical engine parts as quickly as possible. More volume of oil also cools frictional surfaces more efficiently. It's a proven fact that lower viscosity energy conserving motor allows the motor to create more horsepower because the oil pump turns easier.

The entire additive package is better in full synthetic motor oil. Among these are: detergents, anti-wear, anti-oxidation, and the flash to fire point. Synthetic oil is naturally more slippery so you may squeeze out a bit more mileage.

Don't waste time thinking about synthetic blend oil. It's a big scam by the oil companies to charge more for the oil yet none of them actually tells the consumer the percentage of synthetic in the bottle. Who knows, it could be as low as 1% and qualify as a semi-synthetic. There are no rules that regulate these wild claims.

If you make the switch use discretion concerning wild extended drain intervals. Since your car is out of warranty now, you may wish to use extended drain full synthetic oil only if you run a lot of miles quickly on your car. For my money I've always stuck to the car manufacturers recommendation of 5,000 mile drain intervals using regular Mobil1 in my 04 Toyota Camry. Interestingly the Toyota dealer I go to stocks Mobil1 on the shelf.

Mary asks…

Is it legal to drive with the trunk open?

I'm buying a chest freezer tomorrow and was wondering if it is illegal to drive with the trunk open because it won't allow my trunk to close since it's big. If it helps any I live in Tucson, AZ. I drive a 2000 Acura Integra 2 Door hatchback.

admin answers:

If it is hanging OUT of the trunk, not just the trunk open, then you may have to put a "flag" on it, although that may depend on the state as well. If it is just too big to close the trunk on it(and the hatchback part gives me the idea it will be hanging out as well) then usually no problem as far as law.

Questions About Acura Aftermarket Parts

admin answers:

Try acurazine.com Black Market

William asks…

Aftermarket parts what to buy first?

i have an acura integra gsr, what aftermarket parts should i purchase first?
pls dont flame because i have a ricer pls and thx
also its performance only please!

admin answers:

Teggys are awesome!
You want visual mods or performance?
If you want some cheapish performance you can get some basic bolt-ons like intake/header/exhaust. Any more performance you'll probably be looking at swapping or turboing, or if you don't have the money you can run nitrous(people give a lot of shit with nitrous, but really as long as you run low shots its not gonna break, its cheap, fun performance)

alright sorry for the visual mod stuff.. But yeah those are pretty much all i can think of atm that would give you noticable gains in performance, you can also get a tune(wouldn't reccomend doing this though until after you get other mods done, its relatively exensive and not worth it if you don't have much done to it, but if you get a turbo/nitrous/swap you definitely should get one)

stripping weight is also good for performance, you can do some obvious things like spare tire and such, and also can do lightweight pullys, rip out the back seats(personally don't like doing this,way too inconvenient unless you plan on having it as your race car)

try checking out this forum for a lot of info on your teggy

Jenny asks…

Aftermarket Parts for 1991 Honda Legend?

I've been all over the internet and can't find a single website offering aftermarket parts for Honda Legends (RHD Japanese version of an Acura Legend). Specifically, I'm looking for a billet grille, headlights and tail lights.

Does anyone know of a website that sells these items? Anyone who owns a Honda Legend?

Please help. Thanks.

admin answers:

You most likely will not find anything like this in the United States for 2 reasons. First, the Honda Legend was never sold here. It would be senseless for any aftermarket vendor to carry parts for a car that was never sold here. Who would buy them? They would have money tied up in inventory that they can never sell.

Also, this model is getting old. It is not like this car would ever be considered collectible in the U.S. Like a 60's Camaro SS or Mustang Mach 1. Since this model is getting old it does not make sense to stock pats for it. Again, who other than you is going to buy them Again, it does not make sense to tie up money in inventory tt they won't sell.

Questions About Acura Mdx Used 2008

Daniel asks…

Acura 2008 MDX or Lexus 2008 GX 470?

The battle for these to SUVs shouldn't be too hard because I'd have to say Acura MDX is better than the GX. And yes I went to both dealerships and testdrove both cars with my family (4 people). GX It looks nice but the model is 06. I went inside the car it was nice luxury but what annoyed me the most was how thin it was. I sat on the backseat just to check with my family and we were all cramped up. I like how the trunk opens like a door but that really doesn't impress me. The GX is like an overpriced highlander. Now MDX well hell for an SUV with 300 horsepower is nice but what in the world are you gonna use with 300 horsepower when you're looking for a family luxury car. MDX has a nice design I love it. And it is wider than the GX. The MDX also has a trunk that opens automatically by pressing a simple button on your key. And when you want MDX is a better version of the GX except little bit cheaper. They are both around the $40,000 range except the GX is just a couple of thousands more
And when it comes to BMW and Mercedes Benz. It is slightly a whole different story.
So I just need your opinions on what is better.

admin answers:

It really sounds like you have your mind made up already. Go for the MDX.

In car DTV suggestions?

I just purchased a new Acura MDX 2008 with the back seat DVD player. Since it has composite in i thought i could get one of those DTV converters with composite out and use that with my coupon for $40 off. I was thinking of putting it in the floor compartment of my trunk. I was gonna run some cable for the IR receiver and composite. Also I'm gonna make a cigarette lighter to 5V power adapter too. (Yes i work well with technology) Since the Antenna will most likely be hidden and the box will be too, what are your suggestions for the box/ antenna? I was thinking just the Dish DTVPal (TR-40) with traditional bunny ears. I'm just wondering if that would work fine for driving around the city or if i should get a different box/ antenna for heat.

admin answers:

Sure! Sounds right to me.

Does the new 2008 Honda Pilot have Bluetooth Technology?

Hi all, I have the new 2008 honda pilot, it has everything equipped except navigation system.
It has leather seats, fog lights, sunroof and rear DVD entertainment system.
My question is, does the car have Bluetooth technology so I can talk hands free without using my cell phone.
The Acura MDX does, and honda owns Acura and so the Honda Odyessy and the Honda Pilot is more expensive than the Odyessy.
Please let me know, Thanks so much.
Here is a pic of a 2008 honda Pilot incase you need one.

If you tell me to look in the car manual, what would it be under in the index?

admin answers:

The new 2009 Honda Pilot has Bluetooth hands free link. The 2008 pilot did not have it.

Only the 2008 Accord and the 2008 Odyssey had Bluetooth. It is listed in the owners manual under Bluetooth hands free link. There is no listing in the 2008 Pilot owners manual for Bluetooth

i want to live a good lifestyle when i grow up so what income would i need like i want to live a certain lifestyle how much income would i need sustain and not go into debt deeply
apartment in L.A or Ny or somewhere
a car like hondo or acura
groceries and other stuff needed for life
a pet
a few desingers and non desingers clothing
so my question is how much would i need to earn as an income to live this type of lifestyle P.s what jobs would it be to

admin answers:

In Manhattan one needs to earn at least 50,000 a year to live comfortably. Owning a car will cost you easily an additional 10 grand a year in insurance and parking.

In LA, the sky's the limit. I lived in Silverlake for many years. Many would consider that "LA". I lived more comfortably (with a Honda Civic) there for 25 grand than I did in Manhattan when I was earning 60,000.

Where, exactly, you choose to live can have a very dramatic impact on your cost of living. In Brooklyn it is possible to live far nicer for less than on the island.

What to get my man for his 20th birthday?

my boyfriend of a year is turning 20 and i have no idea what to get him. i wanna spend like $100 or so.. hes really into his car.. its an acura rsx type s.. and he likes nice clothes...have any ideas??

admin answers:

Do something that doesnt spend money, turn him on. Take it from a guys point of view once we turn 13 the only thing we really want for our birthday more then video games, is a hot girl, so what you do is, from my pov this is enough to turn a gay guy on, start touching yourself

and make sure he catches you, do something that will make him come into the room you are in, maybe you can have the tv on to loud or write a letter pretending it is from someone, he will guarentee come into the room

so finish masterbating until you cum, then start making out with him, and do what you want from there

George asks…

Acura tl windows and sunroof opened on their own without the keys?

When I came home today I parked in the driveway and ran inside just to change clothes, I didn't lock the car when I ran inside but I had the keys with me. When I came back out all my windows were rolled down and the sunroof was open. At first I thought somebody was messing with me, but then I thought maybe I had accidently triggered a weird setting on my remote. Anybody know what might have made everthing open up on the car. I don't want to accidently do this again in a parking lot or somewhere random.

admin answers:

If you press and hold your unlock button, the sunroof and windows will open. You probably put the keys in your pocket and did it by accident.

Lizzie asks…

People like to say they are not racist, but there behavior suggest otherwise, agree?

Whiteman cars include Chevy Corvette, Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, Ford Pickup and SUVs. Yellowman cars include Honda Accord, Acura Integra, Civic, Toyota Camery. Whiteman's clothing include Abercrombie and Fitch, Baseball Cap with cargo shorts and flip flops. Whitie in Frats don't invite Browns and Yellows. Yellows have their own venues as with other groups, steer clear from the White Rush Activities, they are for the Frat Whities and their lude unrefined behaviors.

I think everyone forms stereotypes of other races, largely due to the fact that they are true. There are not true in 100% of cases, but why is there a stigma associated with pointing out general facts about a group of people backed up by statistics? Different races DO tend to fulfill stereotypes and it's sickening to be branded a racist for pointing this out.

Questions About Acura Honda Payment

Ruth asks…

I have taken an Acura on a 5 yr payment plan. Honda financed me. What is the best way to sell the car.?

The total cost fr the car is around $14000.00 in which I have already paid around $2000.00. How do sell this car to any indivisual since 12000.00 will be a lot fr any indivisual to pay in cash. Do I ask Honda to transfer my plan to his name so that he can take over the rest of the payment. Do I take it to a dealer to sell. Do I ask an indivisual sales man frm any car dealer to help me out. What would be the best option.PLS HELP.

admin answers:

You will never get a loan assigned to anyone. Whoever buys it needs to get their own loan or come up with the cash. You're real problem is getting anyone to buy it at that price. You might be upside down meaning you owe more than the car is worth. Also, payments are not applied linearly. If you have paid $2000 towards a $14000 car, don't be surprised if you still owe over $13000 on it. If it's a lease, which is very unlikely, you can have someone assume that. The words Salesman and help in the same sentence is an oxymoron. I take it you can't afford the car. You either have to sell it, and pay the difference if any out of your own pocket, or trade it in on another car, and roll the balance into a new loan. Unless you know what you are doing, you will end up paying a fortune for the new car. I suggest you sell the car and pay off the difference out of your pocket. Even then, you have to find a buyer who is willing to buy the car from you with a lien attached. This isn't the end of the world. You must have decent credit if Honda financed the car for you, so call them or go online to get a payoff for the car, then see what they're selling for, and decide from there. Good luck. You are not alone in this situation.

2010 Honda Accord EXL v. 2010 Acura TSX?

January 25th my 2007 Honda Accord EXL lease ends. I went to dealer today. There is a Promotion until January 7th. Now 2010 Accord EXL is $310 a month after bargaining plus 1500 down payment, taxes, fees... After January 7th lease will be $30 more per month. If Honda has this promotion so will Acura. I went to see Acura TSX basic. Lease is $335 monthly, downpayment is $2500. 2500/36 is around $30. I already paid for the 2007 January lease as my last month, payment not returnable. Should i get the Acura now which is same price as the Honda now? Or do you think i should get the Honda after the promotion because i already paid my lease fee for the January of the 2007 model?

Toyota Camary or Toyota Avalon or Honda Accord or Honda Acura?

I will be purchasing either one of the above listed Japanese Sedan cars in the next 7 days or less. I will really appreciate if any one could compare all of the above in terms of mileage, gas milage in the city and on the highway, resale value, maintainability, usability, and reliability. My must have features include a built in GPS system with MP3 player and bluetooth for my iPhone

I am planning to go for a FULL payment in CASH. And, I am in kind of rush where I will be spending LOTS of cash in about 7 days or less. This will be the very first BIG cash spending of my life yet. So, please do help your brother here.

I will really appreciate if anyone may share with me their experience with the above listed cars.

I am excited but also I want to be excited in safer manners.

Thanks to all for helping me out here.

admin answers:

These are all good cars so you should base your choice on price, features, options, color, etc. If you are in a RUSH and you are EXCITED you have a good chance of making mistakes and not getting a good deal. Calm down and use your head or you'll make a purchase your aren't happy with, and you won't be able to return the car.

You should get online and do research on the cars, find out what other people are saying about them, and what other people are paying. Edmunds.com is a good site to start with. When you go to buy, don't tell a salesperson you are rushed and excited. You'll NOT get a good deal. You will also not get a better deal by paying CASH. Dealers actually make more money when customers finance.

will my winter tires (rims) from 2003 Acura RSX Type S fit a 2008 Infiniti G35x?

I have winter rims from a 2003 Acura RSX Type S. I want to know if they will fit my 2008 Infiniti G35X.
They are both 5 spoke rims but im not sure about the specs.
Any help would be appreciated.

admin answers:

They both have the same bolt pattern, but if they are stock sized wheels, then no. The Acura came with 15" wheels stock (16" on the Type-S) while the G35 came with 17" wheels stock. I believe Infiniti sized the brakes to fit inside the 17" wheels, so 15" would be too small.

Go for something quiet and that doesnt have many bends.
Go to http://www.weaksauceparts.com/ to get parts.
They are the best for hondas and acuras and they always have the cheapest prices. I would go for the Apexi exhaust, its better than greddy, trust me

oh, and please dont get a faggy fart can of an exhaust... Get a thermal R and D muffler... Make sure its an oval muffler to, it will look way better

Questions About Acura Cars 2009

Michael asks…

What is a better choice on cars? A 2006 Acura TL or a 2009 Nissan Altima?

I can get a 2006 Acura TL that has about 30,000 miles on it for about 21,000 or I can get a brand new Nissan altima around $25,000...

admin answers:

Both good, the TL is not a competitor with the Altima...it's a whole different animal.. TL has more features, higher performance tuned, and more luxurious. 30,000 is great too, barely been used.

I'd err on the side of the used car...While Nissan's are great (I drive one), as soon as your drive off the lot the car will be worth a lot less. Cars lose about 20% of their value in the first year (Altima will be worth about 20,000 in 2010).

Not to mention, at the end of the day, the TL is a lot sharper looking than the Altima.

William asks…

First Car- 2009 Nissan Maxima vs. 2009 Acura TL?

I am turning 16 and I need help picking a car. I am either getting a 2009 Nissan Maxima or a 2009 Acura TL. They both almost have all the same features. They are both 38,000 which is my limit. Please tell me which one you would choose and why. By the way do not criticize me for getting these cars I know how much insurance is going to be and we can afford it. Please and thank you!

I realize that a few people want me to get a American car. They haven't realized that the American companies have not retooled yet. The Japanese already have retooled and the European companies are in the process right now. The Americans went to the government today to ask for a bailout so they can retool. They will be able to get better gas mileage, more reliability, and all the little goodies on the inside and out. Right now it's not practical for me to get a American car but when they catch up too the other companies and become equal I will buy a American car but not right now.

HONDAAA CIVIC.

Okay :) you can stop posting this question now

George asks…

Is a 2009 Acura MDX a good car for a 16 year old boy's first car?

I was wondering because that is what I am thinking of buying him for his 16th.

admin answers:

Too nice.

It's perfect if you are trying to teach him that you are going to give him whatever he wants for the rest of his life and you want him to live at home until he is 30.

If you want him to value hard work and experience living in the real world, you would be smart and buy him a $5,000 car and make him pay for the gas, maintenance and insurance with a after-school job.

Sharon asks…

Which is the better car. 2008 Acura TLS or 2009 Acura TLS?

The 2009 has more horsepower, but weighs more. Does the weigh over power the hp. and the handling. Also I have heard about the recall on the electrical fires.

admin answers:

That can't really be answered until you describe what's most important to you. For example, the new TL is a bigger car than the outgoing 3rd generation TL. Also the new TL brings upgraded luxury appointments. The SHAWD version also provides enhanced cornering, not that the outgoing TLS didn't corner well...it did (in tests, it out-handled the RWD Lexus IS350).

You mentioned horsepower & and hinted at power/weight ratios. I'd bet the outgoing 286 hp TLS with a 6 speed will outrun the new, more powerful SHAWD 306 hp model. The outgoing TL weighs in the 3,500 lb range, whereas the new model weighs a hefty 4,000 lbs! The outgoing Type S MT is capable of 0-60 in 5.5 sec. The new all-wheel drive is a 'mixed bag'...it adds traction, but also adds internal (parasitic losses) within the drive train...more friction from more gears means less power going to the wheels.

BTW, Acura will not release a manual transmission version of the TL until next year. And I wouldn't be surprised if the downturn in the economy delays that...MTs don't sell well.

admin answers:

Mercedes-Benz. Acura is "entry level luxury", I say "entry level luxury" with the quote marks because the interior is very similar to Honda. It's nothing special. Mercedes-Benz is special inside out. It has better quality,comfort,luxury and performance. Acura is just a more expensive Honda. Mercedes-Benz is a true luxury car. It is also the top selling luxury automaker in the world.

Donald asks…

Is there any way to protect the transmition of a 2000 Acura TL or is it guaranteed to go out?

I've read some reviews and it seems the transitions in Acuras have to be replaced quite often.
I've read from some reviews on Kelley Blue Book that there is a defect in the transmitions so that not enough oil is distributed in 2nd and 3rd gear and that most only last 50,000 miles or so. I'm thinking of buying an Acura but don't want to have to replace the transmition.

admin answers:

I've never heard this
If you maintain the transmission, IE preform regular maintenance, it should last 200,000 miles.
Unless you abuse it there are a very durable and reliable transmission.
Who told you that there were a problem?

Joseph asks…

Honda NSX or Acura NSX?

Ok, so I've been seeing this/these cars recently, and I've been thinking, "what?" This guy who lives down the street has an Acura NSX but in movies like FaF4 there is the car Honda NSX. They're practically the exact same car, except different companies. I'll add links to show you what I mean. Thanks.

Acura- http://www.designercars.net/biler/Honda-NSX-72857.jpg

Honda- https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjANqGq9SoImyjt-s24VsVQXqFIWDxDZk4_pYzMDCyQX3zw7tA6sNQ8CPAb73h1Hcj974D2kULeHSh9w7gwkgIlcl_cVpQiKt4Xzco8f0SYfA_nMMK8qCOhDMhr3Nc1ZYXIpupx7ctTlEo/s400/honda-nsx-r-back-3_70.jpg

admin answers:

Actually they are the exact same car. In Japan, there is no Acura, which is just the quasi-luxury division of Honda in North America, so it's called the Honda NSX. That's the same as the Honda Integra. But they knew that Americans weren't stupid enough to pay $90,000 for a V6 Honda, so they marketed under the Acura brand, which was more expensive than Honda, and strangely enough, stupid people actually bought them. That's why it's called the Acura NSX in the US, and the Honda NSX everywhere else in the world.

Charles asks…

whats the difference between an acura nsx and a honda nsx?

admin answers:

Its the same car, honda is the japanese name built in japan, and acura is the american name built in america

but id say there might be a slight difference because of the fuel octane used in the states is different than of Japan, and therfore u get differnt horsepower figures, with Japan having the advantage as they use higher octane fuel

Betty asks…

What does NSX stand for from the Honda/Acura NSX?

admin answers:

"NSX" is an acronym for "New Sportscar eXperimental" when it was presented (as NS-X) at the Chicago Auto Show in February 1989 and at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 1989. Internal Honda sources say the X initially stood for unknown in the codename of the car while it was in development.
