New to the Acura world

So... gonna be bugging with lots of questions.. start I知 curious as to what sounds like a throw out bearing (automatic) or marbles rolling around when car is in park and then quiet once in gear (drive) under shifter.

Another. Is it normal to have pressure build up in oil cap and dipstick when cars running.

Finally
I Saw one those USA spec deals on Craigslist locally and I know it痴 an older model with old iPod connector. It states it will work with a 04-08 tsx and wondering if it will still work with my vehicle (04 non nav)

The noise comes from under the shifter? There are no moving parts there, so my best guess is either the ignition lockout is having issues...but more than likely a heat shield rattling under the car.

No. Check your PCV valve....better yet, just replace it...it is cheap and less than 5 minute job. If that doesn't resolve it, you may either have excessive blow-by or a blown head gasket. Both of those generally come with other symptoms though.

It might just be the shift lock solenoid or plastic knocking on plastic. A LOT of us have this sound. If you notice the "marble" rolling sound when accelerating from a stop sign for instance, that's probably what it is. Give these a read.
