  1. Problems & Solutions RSX
    02 base model manual transmission. 2 owner. No history of timing but water pump was done(don't ask why both weren't done). Car runs great most part. Slight rough idle when warm and sitting still, vehicle seems as though when any accessory is used it runs a little more rough. Main concern is...
  2. ECU Tuning RSX
    So I fired my 02 up this morning and it seemed like the idle was a bit off. I figured it was because it was cold so I started driving and the throttle is jumpy and hesitant at different RPM ranges and in different gears. I bought this car 5k miles ago. Has run perfectly with no problems up...

    What's up everybody? A little issue here. Shop changed VTEC solenoid ( actually just replaced filter/screen) and next day my speedo starts getting jumpy. Didn't do it for like 10 minutes then hit a big bump and it started again. Makes me think loose wire to VSS or something? Brought it back to...

  5. ECU Tuning RSX
    I've noticed the ign not doing what you set it to in K-pro and figure its a software thing but would it be the same for cam angle? I just did a boat load of maintenance (including valve lash) and ran around for a bit. Here is a WOT log and you can see that before I gave it 100% throttle, cam...
  6. Problems & Solutions RSX
    While driving at any speed my speedometer will randomly drop down and go right back to where it was, the needle only drops once a day or so. I've noticed this ever since i bought the car (last April).. Any ideas?
  7. Problems & Solutions RSX
    after heavy acceleration when i come to idle it bounces from 1000 to about 2000 like its trying to catch up. Acura says they have seen it in rsx and tsx but they usually replace whole throttle body. There is a tps whish cant be removed unless you replace with aftermarket correct? and map sensor...
  8. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hey Peeps! I own a 2005 RSX premium 110K, noticed lately that my accelerator is jumpy. What happens is when the car is moving (coasting), especailly at higher RPM, when i press down on the gas pedal there is a slight jump and then normal acceleration... when i take my foot off, the car jumps...
  9. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I have an 03 base automatic and everytime it's shifting, the engine jumps a little. The engine will also just die while idling sometimes. The malfunction light just popped up today. I replaced the o2 sensor last year. It has 130,000 miles on it and hasn't had a tune up yet. But I don't think...
