So I recently bought a 2018 base cpo
rdx with only 12k miles....car is in very nice condition, but I am disappointed in the overall quality. There are lots of noises and movement when going over even small bumps, the doors sound really tinny when closing....ride is just plain clunky unless the road is perfectly smooth.
I did bring it back for service and they found a loose spare tire which helped somewhat. They made the mistake of giving me a 2021 rdx loaner....that car is SO much better all around....solid ride, superb handling and I really like the the turbo motor...much better response and excellent
gas mileage.It brought smiles to my face. Only problem....used 21's are going for 14 K over what I paid for my car. Is there any thing I can do to improve the ride of this car....I was thinking premium sound deadening might help somewhat.

 

Well what are you comparing them to? They sound just fine and I am used to upper end cars. Obviously, they are not as good but they do not sound tinny to me.

 

What are you comparing the car to? I’ve had German calls all my life and was surprised by the feel of the doors, usually with Japanese cars the door are light weight, the rdx doors feel solid like a German car. I wouldn’t call the rdx luxurious, but it’s a very solid vehicle. I have a 2017 with 56k miles, no issues, no creaks or rattles. I was a bit surprised by the build quality, I expected less.
