What’s up guys, New to the forum, I just got my 06 Type S last week. When I test drove the car everything seemed fine, I didn’t hear anything, or I chose not to hear it because I really wanted the car.....:vtec: So over the course of this past week I’ve slowly been pinpointing little things...

It sounds like the engine is protesting when I start there is an extra noise sounds like it is coming from the driver side wheel or axle. Recently had the drivers side axle replaced and could not remember if the transmission fluid was topped off it had never been changed before at 140k, I...

Just as the title states my rsx slightly hesitates when Vtec hits. If I put it to the floor I don't feel it hesitate. Also when I start my car cold it grinds for a couple seconds. Replaced my starter thinking it was that and it still grinds. I've Read it could possibly be a TCT but I replaced it...

I rebuilt my transmission 6 years ago and added a TSX 6th gear to my 5spd EP3 tranny. I replaced a blown 2nd gear and any synchros that needed it. Upon assembly, from the first time I drove it post rebuild, 5th gear would not stay in unless I was completely off the gas. As soon as I touch the...

Not sure if this has been covered before but I changed out the radiator in my car with an aftermarket one when my old one burst. I replaced the thermostat as well now when out to make a test pass my when I accelerate my temperature drops down to about 140 amd returns to normal once I let off...

Have a strange noise, a faint chattering noise from the driver side (afaik) only at 4500rpm and above. Happens at part throttle and full throttle and only while accelerating. Doesn't seem to happen when decelerating and downshifting up there, haven't tested it while in neutral. Any ideas on...

I'm having issues with my 02 RSX type s , car struggles to accelerate when I step on the gas. Toke it to a shop to get diagnosed they sayed the timing chain expanded so I got a new timing chain kit installed but car is still the same. Check engine is on due to oxygen sensor I just installed the...

HELP: Sometimes car "judders" or has a slight wheel hop when accelerating from a stop Its the same feeling you get if you accidently leave the hand brake up and try to take off from a stop, but not as bad. Its like a mild wheel hop. I checked all the brakes and none of them are sticking, pads...

I've searched and found no results on this exact issue. It sounds like the grinding is coming from front driver side and now also the front passenger side wheel wells simultaneously. Only happens when I start accelerating from a stop and goes away after a few seconds. It sounds like a...

Alright so basically when I first bought my rsx type s a month into it my car started jerking back and fourth while driving and the rpms would bounce, it went away after a while and now recently I changed my tps and plugged in a O2 sensor that was unplugged and then the problem came to haunt me...

i hear a clunk front end of the car everytime i step on the gas hard, started after i hit a curb. alignment is okay, what could be it guys? help

Hello, so I was having a CEL which was pointing out to the tps having high voltage and it was because the type s I bought had an after market tb and the sensor could not be calibrated within spec. So I went to the dealer and bought a brand new stock TB and had my mechanic install it. After the...

Hey all, Been noticing the acceleration on my RSX is rather sluggish compared to what it was awhile ago. Im applying steady pressure to the gas pedal and its like at times Im like "come on!!! what the hell is wrong with you!!" seems it takes longer to accelerate for whatever reason. Im also...

2002 RSX with 169,xxx miles. Just purchased 10/20/14. While pressing on the brake while in P, I noticed a "click" in the right side area of the center console. Additionally, I hear a similar "click" in or around the shifter cover when coming to a stop or accelerating from a stop. Any...

2002 Acura RSX Type S 90k miles. I am wondering if this could be a sign of a clutch replacement? When I am accelerating I can hear a faint scratchy / "staticky" noise coming from under the hood, the same noise occurs when I am decelerating when I release the pedal. However, I dont feel any...

Hey crsx, Well I recently got my clutch replaced. I replaced it with an Exedy Oem replacement and a 10 lbs flywheel. After the installation I drove calm for about 500 miles. Once the 500 miles were up I pushed my car to 8k and I heard a loud whining noise when accelerating. I hear a whining...

I just noticed this last week. Not sure if I should be worried. The sound happens between 4-5k before vtec. Both in 2nd and 3rd gear possibly the rest of the gears as well. Mods are intake/header/exhaust. Heres a clip i recorded with my phone. The echo starts at 00:05 (4k rpm) It might be faint...
