#823 of 6992 03 loaded mdx by joinnat Nov 30, 2003 (6:21 pm)
purchased a 03 mdx touring pkg with nav/dvd on nov 15th at Acura Carland in Duluth, GA. they had two 03s remaining on the lot. first offer was $41.300, but after few trips to the sales manager we both okayed at $39k. thinking back now i could've done a little better but we loved the car.
#824 of 6992 resonation/noise at 2000 rpm by harsmdx Nov 30, 2003 (6:40 pm)
I too had put this in the other Forum( Problem and Solutions, Forum 195 ) , I have the similar experience with '04 Touring with Nav. I noticed in on 3rd day and I took it to dealership. The service manager was able to re-produce it just on my car and not on the other two brand new on the lot. Acura has suggested replacing the resonator on Nov 4th. I have put 600 miles on mine. Its very annonying to have spent so much money and it performs even worst than a cheap 10K car. Does it happens on all of the 04 MDXs ? It becomes nightmare when the cruise speed is 70K as it is right on 2000 rpm at that speed. If it is a design flaw then it should be consistent in all MDXs not just a few. I have stopped driving it for now untill this issue is fixed. If it is not I'm definately talk to the Dealer/Acura and would like to get my money back.   Please update with as many experiences as possible to see what %age of vehicle have this problem.   Harjit

BTW...This noise/hum is minimal at Gear 1st, picks up more on 2nd/ 3rd and 4th, loudest at 5th. I have seen earlier post now that this has happened on all years make from 01-04...So just can't be exhaust. I wish I could have paid more attention before buying this, atleast I could have avoided this hassle now....

I have a 03 and dont notice any humming noise at all...In fact the car is so quiet that I notice some slight rattling noise from parts when going over bums. The 01 to 03 humming noise complains were hardly describe as unbearable. It was a few transmissions and welding problems making some slight noise. Doesn't sound like the problem you are describing at all with the 04s.
#827 of 6992 $900 over invoice for any 2004 MDX by mouseonline Dec 01, 2003 (7:19 pm)
This offer is from Internet Dept. of Lindsay Acura in Columbus Ohio. I decided to reject it, because I really like the Lexus GX470 more. Too bad, I haven't got any good offer on this GX yet.
#828 of 6992 Resonance on MDX by danschiff Dec 02, 2003 (12:30 am)
Are all MDX's build in the same plant? Maybe there is some common factor to determine the problems across the line. Going by basic troubleshooting techniques, people should post complete model info, and options, to try to ID what might be causing the problem. Do the models with noise have additional or non-standard parts (aftermarket spoiler, wind deflector, side steps, hood protector, etc.)?   Is it from the front engine compartment, the A/C-heating system, exhaust, or wind noise? Does the resonating effect feel like it is transferring or vibrating through the vehicle (i.e. do you feel it AND hear it, maybe through the steering wheel, seats, and floor). I am curious what to look for when I pick up my MDX on the 20th to make sure it isn't a problem on mine.   FYI: I did not experience any problems (and was looking for it based on the earlier post from the problems and solutions section) with the 2 different ones I test drove.
#829 of 6992 Noise in 04 at 2k rpm by inky4 Dec 02, 2003 (5:59 am)
Had a 02 no noise. Had a 03 no noise. Have a 04 now the noise. just as described by others on this board. Keep posting if you get a solution.

I got my '02 back from the shop yesterday after having the timing belt tensioner done and tried to hear a noise at 2000 rpm. I didn't hear anything out of the ordinary and in general I am an OCD when it comes to my cars.
#832 of 6992 re: noise ... by harjits Dec 02, 2003 (9:53 am)
sbcooke,   was it making a noise before you fixed timing belt tensioner ??
