Air Mix Motors - 07 - 13 Models
We've had replaced both the driver and passenger air mix motors on our 2008 MDX. I think I hear one now clicking in the back center console. Does one exist in that location as well?
If so, can anyone advise part number or process to replace?

It does.. Its on the driver side panel of the center console in the lower portion (So yeah seems that the entire center console or drivers side seat must come off to replace it). Part no: https://www.hondapartsunlimited.com/...dXRvbWF0aWM%3D

Skirmich - Thanks for the info. Is this something that can be changed as easy as the Hands Free Unit in the back center console? I've changed that before, but have had other shops change the front air mix motors as I was not comfortable with all the dash work. Appreciate the feedback.

Giving a quick look at a hayne´s manual it seems that there is no easy way to change the mix motor.. The OE Manual says "Remove the Center Console"..
But to remove the center console you have to remove both seats.... Since there is a panel on the driver´s side of the center console your best bet will be to remove the driver´s seat only and work by removing the side panel... Even if you could remove the panel the seat will get in your way, so I don´t see a form to replace the mix motor without removing the driver´s seat.
