| I have a 03 MDX and recently I have had happen twice a very loud "electric motor sound" in the car. It has happened going from reverse to drive. Anyone have a clue as to what this loud sound could be. It is so loud it blocks out all other noise and can only be stopped by turning the car off. | |

At 60 mph my 2006 MDX makes a high pitched whirring or whistling noise. When you let off the accelerator, it goes away. This happens with the A/C on and without. With the cruise control set at 60, 65, 70 mph, the same thing happens. When you cancel the cruise control, the noise goes away. The Dealer said this was "normal" but I've never had anything like this before. Any ideas?

Replying to: djrasure (Jul 03, 2009 7:12 am) I did test with all radio and A/C off and have this loud sound all the times. Is it normal? I hear some friend said the Lexus have much better noise reduction inside the car. Any thoughts?

Well I was approaching 70k trouble free miles in my '04 MDX when it suddenly came down with a case of "sticky shifter". It literally happened overnight, the day before it went "snick, snick" when you moved the shifter, the next day it was like someone poured molasses down there. Acura service told me sometimes condensation forms and they have to take the shifter assembly apart "around $200, yada, yada". Transmission is fine (knock on wood), has this happened to anyone else?

Replying to: vaughn4 (Jan 18, 2008 4:24 pm) I have had the compliance bushings on my '08 MDX changed twice. The second time they needed to be changed because the original clicking problem persisted. Now the cllicking has gone away, however, it seems like there now is a buzz or a hum (high frequency vibration) when I get above 70 mph. Did you experience anything similar to this? Thanks kdias

I own an Acura MDX 2006. I bought it because of its reputation of quality and reliability. I guess it's no more. Last week, the car suddenly lost its steering power when my wife picked up my 17 mo old boy. My wife had to do an emergent stop on the side of road and had to call the roadside service. Fortunately it happened on local road. I cannot imagine what would happen to my wife and kid if it were on highway. The tow truck driver came and found the crank pulley sitting on the ground when he checked the car. I was shocked to see the actual crank pulley piece of medal laying on the ground. This MDX is only 26k. Obviously the vehical is not under heavy use. But still over the past 3 years of ownership, it has given us problem after problem. First it's the air conditioning system failure within one year. Then it's the wind shield fluid dispense system failure. Now it's the life threatening incident. I would never buy Acura anymore. -Dennis |
