I would like to know if anyone had luck buying all-season floormat for the 3rd row ? Didn't see one at a local auto store.

My other car has the horrible indents from the car seats and along with the food stains the little critters made I doubt any adult would want to sit behind. Its an old car so don't care much about it. But I wouldn't want the same thing on my MDX. I got the bench cover at a local supermarket for $17 (sells for $40 in auto stores) and with $20 a piece (2 car seats) for the seat protector thats money well spent. While I'm at Babiesrus this weekend I'm also going to look for something that will protect the back of driver/passenger seat from all the shoe marks.

Update: the Two Stage Car Seat Protection was put to test over the weekend. My 3 year old threw up and made a big mess. The car seat and the seat protector got the brunt of it. Thrashed the car seat and hosed the seat protector. Its a good quality product. Its a must for car seats. Thanks scottm123 for recommending it. Also the seat cover added an extra protection and went straight into the washer. Everything is as good as new now

The car seat cover(which goes over the entire 2nd row to protect the leather seats) went into the washer..not the seat protector. For the seat protector I just used a little hand soap, little scrubbing with an old toothbrush and hosed it off. Later sprayed a little febreeze on it.

Ah... good to know.
 
Don't you love how you take that protector out, and see not one indentation from the car seat in your leather.
 
That, in itself, makes it worth the price.

Bought the sealant package from the dealer, Teflon, and the interior protection package. I believe the manufacturer of it is Auto Armor. They guarantee no stains on the seats or carpets of the car or they will replace them through the Acura dealer. Each year, included in the price, is a full detail job, applying a new coat of Teflon, and interior protectant, at the Acura dealership. I will be provided with a car free of charge while they do the service.
Total cost of the package was $585.
I can't pay anyone to detail the inside and outside of my car for $100 a year, that alone is worth the price. Especially thought it was a good idea for my new Black '07 MDX with Taupe interior.

Flashing light and delay after Speed Bump by dms9
Aug 04, 2007 (5:55 am)

When I go over a speed bump at about 15 mph, the warning light that is the yellow triangle with the "!" in it flashes and the car can't seem to go for a couple seconds. It sounds like it is winding up or can't find the gear. It then clears and is fine. It annoying, because you slow down for a speed bump and then accellerate after the bump. I get this pause. Has anyone else had this problem. I have never had it any of my prior vehicles.

What type of Gasoline? by net2net_99
Aug 28, 2007 (6:20 am)
Reply
I just bought 2007 MDX and the manual suggests to use Premium Gasoline for the car. I have heard that it is not really necessary and doesn't really make any difference in MPG or any other way if we just use Regular gasoline.
 
How about warranties being honored if you have been putting regular gasoline? I don't trust the gas station owners enough and think that even if I pay for Premium gas there is no guarantee about what comes through the pump.
 
I have driven the car only for about 200 miles (half local, half highway using only the gas that dealer filled in the tank) and the MPG displays arounf 15 MPG against listed 17 MPG - 22 MPG.
 
Please advise and share your own experiences.
