Loud bang from engine compartment
It's been a couple of weeks since I drove my RL last time, so I decided to take it for a spin. After regular driving for about 8 min, I decided to hear my VTEC after a red light. I floored the pedal, the car shifts to second, then all of a sudden I hear a big bang from the engine compartment. The car lost power for a split of a second, then everything went back to normal.
That just happened to my car?
I have about 12000 miles, it's a 06.
Combustion problem? Spark plugs problems?

back-fire, its normal if you don't hard drive for a while, then decide to punch it. I had this happen once in my MDX after I drove it granny style for about 3 weeks, then one day boy racer and on the way out from work BANG

is this the same case as not driving hard for a while then taking it up into vtec range then the check engine starts flashing but i do not get a loud bang..then when i come back down to a crusing rpm 2-3k there's no check engine flashing..should i be concerned and take it in to the dealer? i also have an 06

could this be because i upgraded to the UR underdrive cr pulley? do you think the dealer will give me a hard time with the new pulley?

Yes, yes, and yes.
I have found no good reason to use that pulley.
I do not believe it is an upgrade.
Do you think Honda would not have put it on if it had a real benefit that one could feel?
