Hello everyone,
i just bought a 2013 rdx base.
before this car i owned a 09 tsx and had about 193k miles until i had to trade it in.
so far i like the ride.
there is vibration when i press brakes, so maybe a new brake job is needed. tires maybe!!
also i dont like the halogen headlights. that needs to go.
i heard some squeaking sound coming from the back. dont know if that is the license plate or what.
other than that i am very happy with my purchase.
will keep you posted

Front rotor warping is common.Replacing rotors will stop vibration.

I would replace only the fronts. Rear vibration will only be noticed on hard stops or braking going downhill. But,rotors are cheap,so up to You to change both.

they resurfaced the rotors and the vibration is gone, i might still need new brakes and rotors but not anytime soon.
