I have a 2001 MDX. It sometimes won't start. I took it to a mechanic and he said it was the immobilzer but he can't work on anything computer because acura is proprietary. I tried the other key but that didn't work either. Is there a way to get around it? If not, how much should it cost to fix it?

looking to buy a 2004 MDX with 48K. dealer is offering it for $13,998. is this a
good buy? I am currently in the process of selling off my 2008 honda odyssey.

vehicle to consider purchasing?

Our 2003 MDX with close to 90,000 miles has been great. At about 50k miles we had battery problems. Don't know what the street value is, but the car is very reliable.

That sounds like a pretty good deal my '04 has 69,000 miles on it and the BMW dealer was only going to give me $12k for it. Watch out for tranny problems though, have someone check the tranny fluid for metal shavings.

This is a very low price. Get a Car Fax report and also see if you can get information from the Acura dealer on its prior maintenance, etc.. Only real possible concern is the transmission.

i think that is a great price. I have a '04, just rolled 175k miles, yes 175k. What are these tranny problems people are talking about? mine shifts as the day it came off the line, but i'm a service freak.

but found another 04, local. has 141k on it. drove it yesterday, tight as a drum.
had tranny replaced at around 80k. interior is in fabulous conditiion, everything works. guy told me to take it overnight, have it inspected, etc.. He is asking
11.9k. how much life could I expect to get out of this? I drove 18-20k per year.
