Are the current gen RDX's prone to creaking? Seems like I read that somewhere a few weeks back. We bought a '21 PMC edition. It has started making some odd noises in the back. It could be a strut issue or something else with the rear suspension.

Creaking noise or popping noise? I ask because I'm relatively new to 3rd gen ownership (recently moved up from a 2010 1st gen that I had for over a decade), and I've noticed an occasional pop coming from the rear headliner area when I exit my driveway or drive over any similar type bump that causes the chassis to flex. This is for a 2022 A-Spec with just over 20k miles.

In searching, there are multiple threads on here about TSB 23-0004, which calls for potential replacement of the sunroof frame. If you just punch 'acura TSB 23-004' you'll get a link to the NHTSA page for it. I would suggest reading up on it to see if that may be your issue, and if so hopefully you still have some warranty coverage left to address it. Since it's only a TSB and not a full recall, I do not believe they'll be replacing these free of charge unless you're still on your bumper-to-bumper.

There is also a known issue of creaking type noises coming from the rear control arms. Noticeable when turning, especially in cold weather.

Your issue sounds similar to mine. We can hear it backing out of the driveway and some types of bumps. Sounds like I need to get it into the dealer to get it checked out. Thanks.

It is the flexing of the structure with the pano-roof. A little popping is normal, if your pano-roof seals correctly and doesn't leak - IMO, just leave well enough alone.

Took our RDX in to the dealer. They said it was something with the front sway bar. Took it back on Friday for the repair and it's still doing it. Back it will go soon.

Mine started creaking just a little bit since springs and spacers.
