#1646 of 1815 Re: 2008 MDX clicking/popping noises from rear [mfred] by asianbanker Jun 12, 2008 (11:00 pm)
Replying to: mfred (May 27, 2008 9:00 am) mfred -   I have the same problem with my car and after reading this forum, I found info on the 07-033 TSB. I was going to bring the car in tomorrow to see if the dealer can fix the problem per the TSB, but you are saying that the problem wasn't fixed? I'll let you know how it goes with my service -- stay tuned.
#1647 of 1815 Buying "Certified" by ncmdx Jun 13, 2008 (7:32 pm)
A few years ago, I thought I read a post that stated that dealers will sale the "Certified" warranty to existing Acura owners. My MDX just passed the 45k mile mark and would be interested in finding out if I can get Acura Certification. Maybe I dreamed it, as now I cannot find any postings related to that discussion. However, I seem to recall that it was $500, but a dealer in VA was selling it for about half that.   If anyone happens to know, I would be very appreciative of information one way or the other.

Replying to: asianbanker (Jun 12, 2008 10:43 pm) Asianbanker,   Any update on whether you got your issue fixed? I just bouhght an 08 MDX Sport and have the same noise from rear suspension. Dealer replaced rear shocks, sound went away for a day or so and is now back - very interested in hearing what your issue was and if it was resolved. Also, have you noticed the noise changing with additional weight in the car e.g. more noise with 4 people in the car than just one person?   Thanks.

Replying to: aqmdxsport08 (Jul 02, 2008 9:34 am) Too bad you did not come to this forum before purchasing your 08 MDX. The issue you are experiencing is a well known problem with the new generation MDX. You'll have to learn to live with it as the fixes they have are only band-aids - The noises will eventually return. I know from experience. It is very disheartening indeed as you paid or are paying a good amount of dough for your MDX.

Replying to: aqmdxsport08 (Jul 02, 2008 9:34 am) I had problems with mine, but they ultimately found that I had a broken baffle in a muffler, which they replaced. I was really annoyed at first, but they worked out the bugs and it feels solid, no rattles at all. Pester your dealer, they can fix it if they want to. My dealer was fantastic, they went over and above what I would expect and got it corrected. -- Pohanka in Northern VA. If your dealer can't fix it, take it to another dealer.

Replying to: dms9 (Jul 19, 2008 7:37 am) I had mixed results with Pohanka where I purchased my 07 mdx. Tom Smith was the advisor who kept ignoring my complaints of "popping" sounds upon starting the ignition. He told me three different reasons each time I took it in. I finally asked one of the service technician on his break to do me a favor and take a look and he fixed the problem in 30 minutes...He looked up the Acura Website for the known problems and solutions and it turned out that my MDX needed a software upgrade. Who was your service advisor? Replies to this message: dms9 (Jul 28, 2008 2:43 pm) aqmdxsport08 (Jul 28, 2008 3:47 pm) fwchad (Nov 05, 2008 8:16 pm) mickeynis (Nov 14, 2008 9:31 am)

Replying to: dms9 (Jul 28, 2008 2:43 pm) Quick update - my dealer was told by Acura to 'grease' the rear struts - they have and the noise has not come back for a few weeks now.... fingers crossed!
#1654 of 1815 MDX - cost for 105K Major Service by go_mdx1 Jul 30, 2008 (12:32 pm)
I've got a 2001 MDX getting close to the 100K mileage marked. How much have folks been recently paid for the 105K major service??
#1655 of 1815 Cost for 105k service by cleveland1 Aug 21, 2008 (11:26 am)
Just made an appt for next week and was told $1250 - not expected but if that lets me drive another 100k then its worth it - interested in others experiences too. And I have had ALL of the 2001 MDX problems noted in the string and the good news was my dealer stood between me and the Acura regional folks and got most things covered that should not have gone bad
