I know it's a wrong place to post something like this and I appoligize. I think this will be the only place to get some answers. I am thinking about getting a 2002 MDX. The only thing I know is that it shares alot of similar components as the Honda Pilot and the Honda Oddessey. I know alot of ppl is having problems w/ Honda v6 transmissions. Does anyone here know much about the MDX??? Do they also use a similar transmission as the TL because the MDX is 240HP and TL is 230-260HP. Another thing I am worried about is that cars.com rated an 03 TL w/ 5 stars even though there's alot of ppl w/ transmission prob and MDX w/ only 3 stars...I just don't know how the MDX is going to last. Comments and replies is appreciated. Thanks

Definitely the wrong place to post this. Check out www.acuramdx.org.

Yes, the MDX was affected by the transmission recall. But it should last and age as well as any other Honda product.

01-02 MDXs were recalled for the oil injection kit upgrade for the transmission but failure still occurs. there have been problems with 03 MDX transmissions as well. i purchased a 03 MDX. i haven't had any recalls for the transmission.

compared to 01-02 models, the 03 suspension/ride is alot softer, much better navigation system, 260hp and ??lb torque, quiter interior and ??

but definitely check out acuramdx.org for alot more information between model years.

side note: i thought all 5 speed transmissions were the same for Honda/Acura models.
