    Nice look at how to properly maintain the fleet!

    For whatever reason, a lot of Acuras specify flushing the brake fluid in a counterintuitive order. For the 3G RDX, the service manual says the order is FL, FR, RR, RF. You don’t actually start with the brakes farthest from the reservoir.

      Interesting thanks for sharing, I’ll have to see if I can get my hands on an official Sevice manual eventually.

    • @Xi-op7gg
      @Xi-op7gg 2 місяці тому

      Yeah, I thought it was strange too the first time I read it. If you google it, this is also the order for the last gen RDX, MDX, TLX, and some others. And it’s not just some guy online. There are pictures from the factory service manual showing this. I do as the FSM says, but I actually don’t know the logic here. It makes more sense to start with the corner that’s the farthest from the master cylinder.

    I’m looking at getting a gen 3 RDX, probably the advance package. Are there any particular issues that I should be aware of prior to buying the car, anything this car is particularly known for? Also anything I should be aware of while inspecting and test driving it? Thanks!!!

    • @alexkaspi

      Well people have reported transmission issues, Acura has acknowledged these things, so I would test drive and verify it shifts smooth. I do notice sometimes the revs will hang longer than I’d like but overall I just drive it in sport mode and it shifts fine for me.
      Otherwise personally I noticed a brake squeal from the front brakes when the vehicle is cold. This typically will go away after 1min or so if normal driving. Acura had a service bulletin for this: Bulletin Number: B19-053

    How is turbo on these engines? Can it survive to 200k miles?

  • @tomfaz4193

    Hi great video, I would assume you are using required Honda brake fluid. I am contemplating buying an RDX but am leaning towards the Advance model because of the use of the low profile tires on the Aspect model.

    • @alexkaspi
      @alexkaspi  Місяць тому

      I was not using factory fluid but just Prestone or whatever I picked up from Autozone that's good to use in Hondas/Acuras. I used to have unlimited access to such things but that was a lifetime ago! haha.
      I love the advance model, the one feature I wish I had on this car was the heads-up display. Maybe I'll upgrade in the future! GL with your search.

    Hello. I have the same rdx and the front camera is fogged up. I have a replace camera but can’t figure out how to remove the front emblem without braking it. Do you have any tips? Thanks.

    • @alexkaspi
      @alexkaspi  2 місяці тому

      Hey sorry for the late reply. Are you sure the camera is behind the emblem? I did some searching and it seems like the radar unit is behind the emblem and then camera is behind the windshield under plastic around the rear view mirror.
