Thank you.

Traded in my wife's 2001 MDX when we bought the RDX.

The service manager bought it for his daughter.

Just picked up my new baby and I'm super happy. Never had the opportunity to buy a brand new vehicle but I've owned a few Acura's already. Looking forward to being a part of this community

Hi All,

New to the forum. Went to the dealer a few weeks ago with my wife, she had to turn in her 16 TLX lease. While I was waiting I asked the salesman what they had for CPO RDX's. He had just gotten in a 17 Advance w/ 6500 miles. Needless to say I traded in my 15 Rouge. Loving the RDX,

Loving the forum, tons of info!!

Yes she did and we love it, the ASpec is one hell of a ride, I have the best of both worlds!! I did luck out on the RDX, so glad I inquired! I am missing some tech also the 360 view I had in my Rogue but all-in-all love the RDX.

Hello everyone,
My wife and I are happy to join the RDX community. The lease on our '16 ILX was up and we ended up buying a black on black CPO '18 RDX Tech Package.

Hi all! I just purchased a new-to-me 2016 RDX-Advance. I'm looking forward to seeing what I can learn here. I was very happy to find directions to delete the preschool music from my HDD!

So, my wife finally got her Acura. She's been needing a car, and this 90k mile '14 RDX AWD w/tech package was a winner! Very excited to get to learn this one.

Really wanting to tint the backs a bit darker, the fronts a little, and actually like 70% on the windshield. Paint match the black plastic lips, plastidip the grille matte black, as well as the roof rack.Take off the front plate holder (I live in DE and only need rear plate). And possibly smoke the mirror turn signals. Throw some LED's in the interior dome and doors, and license plate, and call it a day.
But, first it's going to need a 100k mile tune up. Spark plugs were already done, the water pump/timing belt needs to be done. Trans fluid flush, oil and filter change, brake pads and rotors all around have already been done, as well as a passenger side axle seal (not sure what that was all about). What else should I consider keeping an eye out, or servicing/replacing for the 100k mile service?

Also the 2nd pic is next to my base 199,900 mile, 6MT, '05 TL. Still running strong but, is about to rob me around $1,200 on some 200k mile services/repairs/replacements.

Your TL looks nice! You may want to replace the transaxle fluid and rear differential fluid, just to have a baseline. They were probably both due around 90,000 miles, so unless you have documentation, you may want to refresh them. Brake fluid should also be replaced every 3 years. None of those services are very expensive.

Sweet! Thanks for the info! I'll get them done within the next few months. I also notice the dreaded creaky, sometimes banging right rear strut noise. That's the only issue I've noticed so far with the car.

New member, 2014 AWD Base, which has been a great great car for 125,000 miles.

Starting to get a bit worn so I'll be trying to get it back to new-is. Looking forward to learning as opposed to lurking. Cheers.

Figured I would throw in a quick introduction as well! I got my 2013 RDX Tech AWD with 94k miles on it almost a month ago now. This thing was babied and taken care of very well! It was traded into the same Acura dealer it was bought from for a new RDX, so we felt it was a good car to look at. I am apart of 3 other forums so this is my 4th car forum that I am apart of. Can't wait to learn and help other RDX owners .
