Should really be revised now that I have the MDX

Model: MDX Tech
Color: Mocha Metallic/Parchment
Miles: 6 Kms at pick-up
Purchase date: May 2010
Avg MPG: N/A

Modifications:

Outrageous cost for the hitch, received about 33% off - eventually.

Issues(Resolved?): A/C Rear blower fan is making a terrible noise. I’m a DIY kind of guy, so I’m looking for recommendations of the best manual/emanual to purchase. In the mean time, does anyone have a diagram of how to remove the old blower fan?

Thank You! Happy to be an MDX owner!

The outside temp sensor's wires were cut, took it apart and fixed it.

I just became the owner of a 2006 MDX Touring with Nav - sage on quartz - and I haven't seen it yet! Bought it on eBay and got a great price! I'm sure I'll have lots of questions and comments once I get the car and get to know it.

I test drove another 06 in my local area (PNW) and loved it! The one I found on eBay has the same miles (about 61K) and all the right colors and equipment, and I will have it delivered here for about 6 grand less than local dealers are asking for these cars. Thank you Internet!

I bought another Honda product (ST1300 touring bike) a few years ago, sight unseen clear across the country, and it was a good experience. Hopefully this one will be as good!

rust on brackets in A/C console

As any other MDX (2007-2010) owners observed any rust in the back of a/c console behind the drivers seat, it is going to be at the base of the console below the vents. You might have to push down on the carpet to oberve the brackets?

Hi there -

2006 MDX Touring w/NAV, sage on quartz, 62K miles, just bought it on eBay. Had it about 2 weeks, very happy with performance and comfort, not so happy with gas mileage in town. Barely 13mpg. And I have a mystery muffled buzz above 2000rpm in gear - doesn't do it in neutral - exhaust shop says it's not a leak. The research project led me here. Time to do some searchin'. If you have any ideas, or similar symptom, chime in. I'll start a thread after 5 posts if I can't find anything by searching.
