was wondering if the rdx had the windows down feature like the tsx and other acura... when u press and hold unlock twice and the windows go down... and the open close feature on the key hole on the door... i asked the dealer n they failed to know and it didnt say on the specs online... can anyone confirm with me?
thanks

 

Unfortunately, no it does not. A silly omission if you ask me. I think every new Acura AND Honda has this feature at this point. Even odder is that on the tech package, you will get a "message" in the first two weeks claiming that you have this feature, as well as memory seats. Having had the pleasure of talking to technician a few times for other issues, I asked about this. Apparently the messages are shared between the RDX and RL, and thus not particularly accurate.

 

hahahahah lazy ppl cant take out the 2 things for rdx'ers

 

I tried this today (before I saw this thread) and was really suprised that this feature is not there. Very strange. How much did they save by not doing this?

 

I'd guess they saved a lot (in a roundabout sort of way). If it was included in this year's car, they would have to spend a lot of money for some (different) changes for 2008 etc. sadly, people expect something new every year. Economic realities mean that you can't "reinvent the wheel" everytime out.

 

I find this disappointing. Everyone has pointed out the lack of memory driver's seat and power passenger and neither of these is an issue for me as my current car has manual seats and I've never found it to be problem to readjust on the rare occasion that my husband drives me car. But, I was really looking forward to being able to roll down the windows with the remote. I love this feature on our TL - we are able to let that initial rush of hot air out before we get to the car during the summer. It didn't even occur to me to look for this feature when we did the test drive. Oh well.

 

yea exactly... let the car cool off a bit was the best when i had my tsx...

but colin, i agree with u only except i dont see them adding the windows down on the 2008's... they will def add memory driver seats and power paassanger seats... and thats about it.... and maybe standard auto dimming mirrors... some reason, something as simple as windows down, originally came out on a brand new first generation tsx.... i doubt they will ever put it on the rdx

 

I had an 04 TSX with the window down feature. One time I had the keys in my pocket when I was in my house and it was raining outside. About an hour later I went out to my car to find my windows down and the car completley soaked inside. Somehow the button got pushed in my pocket and the windows all went down when it was raining. personally I would rather not have that feature.

 

haha that sucks man... nun like that ever happened to me
