Hello

Hello everyone,
So I thought I belonged here already, but guess not. I do not own an Acura, but my father owns an 09 TSX and my sister owns a 16 ILX A-Spec and I help them with their cars when need be. I am also a huge Acura guy. I was driving my dad's TSX today and had a 90 year old man turn left into me, so I am looking to replace his whole set, since tires were so-so and original rims are all bent to some degree from CT roads. Will post from time to time and will be lurking in the marketplace section. I thought I was a member because a few years ago the TSX was having an awful smell from HVAC and with the forum's help was able to figure out it was from mice getting into the cabin filter and dying.

-Cheers

The smell was awful. My dad was driving the car like that for months, breathing in decomposing mice. They were getting in through I guess you would call the HVAC hood cowl that sucks up air for the A/C. I pulled the cabin air filter and there were 4-5 mummified mice.
