#921 of 1030 Re: hesitation when shifting 1st-2nd when hot [ljm2043] by sittingduck Oct 03, 2006 (4:32 pm)
Replying to: ljm2043 (Oct 03, 2006 4:14 pm) Here are the two recordings I have of the noise. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.   The second recording occured on the way back from my 4th time to the dealership for this issue. This is supposedly after they "counter rotated" the tires and adjusted the tire pressure to factory specs.   On the second video I did notice the noise getting louder when a gust of wind would rock the car. I had not paid attention to this factor prior to it until the earlier posting.   http://www.rontron.com/henry/2k6_RSX-S_Noise_removedmyname.zip   http://www.rontron.com/henry/092806_1144hrs_coming_back_from_Acura.zip

I drove with the shop foreman and he diagnosed it immediately. they resealed it and all is well. Prior to this we thought the noise was coming from the engine.   muc

Replying to: ksj06rsxdc5 (Sep 26, 2006 6:48 pm) Hi,   I am not at home now so have not been able to respond. The dealer who diagnosed it was Radley Acura in falls Church VA, tel.: 703-824-5700.

#925 of 1030 After market parts on RSX by rsxdriver Oct 10, 2006 (6:43 pm)
Hi everyone perhaps someone can clue me in. I crashed my 2006 RSX 3 weeks ago (I bought it in May 2006 brand new the dealership), it's in the body shop right now. There was a problem with the throttle and they were trying to fix it but the body shop informs me that they were having problems with matching it because there are some "aftermarket parts".... I have not put any aftermarket parts in this car at this time. Has anyone had any issues with either the dealer ship putting these types of parts in a new car and not telling the buyer about it? Help........ If this is true, I could have an issue with no warranty on these parts......... Replies to this message: nitromax (Oct 13, 2006 3:27 am) john500 (Oct 13, 2006 4:39 am)

Replying to: rsxdriver (Oct 10, 2006 6:43 pm) Nope, never heard of that.   Are you have the bodyshop at the dealer (or affiliated with the dealer) do the work?   I'd be interested in knowing what the parts were that they are saying are not "factory". Can you provide these?

Replying to: rsxdriver (Oct 10, 2006 6:43 pm) I've never heard of that either. Are you sure that the "body shop" knows what a throttle even is? The body shop should repair the body and have the Acura dealer repair the engine.   In 2005, Toyota switched from cable-based throttles to electronic throttles on several models. Based upon Jackson Racing's failure to make superchargers for the Acura RSX-S beyond 2004, I suspect Acura did the same thing and the body shop is not aware of the transition. That's just a guess. I have no idea of the specific history of your vehicle.

Replying to: ljm2043 (Oct 03, 2006 4:14 pm) Thanks for telling me about this possible fix. I'm bringing my car in for it's first oil change soon, and I'm going to tell them about this. I told them when I first started to have the problem, that I thought it might be a temperature or o2 sensor. Maybe these guys should go back to the old school way of finding the problems, instead of plugging it into the computor and then telling us the computor says nothing is wrong and that it's normal. Can you believe that, the dealership told me the hesitation was normal. My problem is always there when the car reachs normal driving temperature. When I first start it up it runs great, but when it warms up it starts to hesitate when shifting. Thanks again, I'm going to tell them about this.

Replying to: unknown (Oct 15, 2006 7:44 pm) Let me know if you have any success. I live in WI and it's getting colder outside so I might not even know if this works until next spring or summer. Hopefully you live somewhere warm where you'll be able to tell quickly.
