I just got a 2007 Acura RL(first Honda product) with 145K miles, well maintained one owner car. I noticed a "tapping" sort of noise while engine is idling and while driving from 1k to 2k rpm. I was wondering if it's normal sound for a J35A8 V6 or I may have a problem?

Another "concern" I found was after 2,000 miles after oil change with synthetic oil I notice the oil got really brown and dirty, is that normal?

I also noticed that some of the climate control panel bulbs are out, would anybody have information on how to change these bulbs would be greatly appreciated?

Thanks in advance

Most likely your purge solenoid. Common to Honda V6 and not an issue.

OP, There was helpful information in your last thread you made a month ago

Thanks for the reminder MSW. I usually catch these things.

We'll go ahead and shut this down since we already have the exact same thread. OP, please take notes.
