a buddy bought his car with them.
I disassembled the shocks and just took the springs from him.

I might be interested in selling this paired set up, as I found something superior.

Didn't make my appointment to take my car in Monday, so I took it in today and they gave me a MDX. I haven't driven one since the 06 model and I really like it so far. I believe I have found the wifeys new whip.

Look like my power steering pump needs to be replaced, but they are still checking out the knocking noise. My warranty that covered the ps pump just ended 5k ago which is almost 2 months ago.

The service rep said he put in a request to Acura to cover it anyways. Any experience with this or is it a shot in the dark?


If not, who wants some green, beer and that satisfaction of helping a fellow aziner if they don't end up covering it?

Si!

I'm hoping I don't have to pay anything right now though. Just finished paying for our honeymoon next month and final payment on venue next weekend so needless to say The wallet is getting pretty light around here.

Fingers crossed

After taking the long way to work and home to get a nice feel for the borrowed MDX I would have to say I rather have a larger suv like a QX56 considering size to mpg's. Other than that it's solid.
