  1. Bolt-On Basics: RSX Type-S
    So I have an 2002 Type S and I don 't know if it's just me, but I feel that sometimes the RPMs go up too fast and the car is barely starting to move. For example when in 1st gear I'll hit 20 MPH at 4K RPMs. That seems pretty high for only 20 MPH. Is it because that it's a smaller engine that it...
  2. Wheels & Tires EP3
    I have a new set of buddy clubs 16x7, I installed my used tires on them ( bought tires 9 months ago and so far they only have 1500 miles, 205 45 ) . Before I had the tires on rsx rims, no problem at high speeds, now new rims and it shakes after 80 mph , it feels stronger as the speed increases...

  4. Problems & Solutions RSX
    After Calibrating my TPS my car won’t accelerate more than 5 mph! I have a BXIM-10401 Blox Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) for my 03 RSX Type-S for over a year now. A few months ago my “RPM Guage” started to go on the fritz half the time by moving up and down randomly or not move at all. It...
  5. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Well I was driving on the highway late at night and I ended up doing a 360 swerve and by some miracle didnt hit anything or anyone. In an attempt to fix the swerve I over corrected and turned the steering wheel pretty hard. Now when I drive the car around a turn it feels like the back of the...

  7. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I have a feeling this is going to be wheel bearings but before I drop a couple hundred I want to make sure its that and nothing else. To describe my situation, I get a swooshing noise, speed dependent ONLY. It occurs regardless of on/off throttle, accelerating, decelerating, in gear/neutral...
  8. The DIY Garage RSX
    I have been searching for weeks now to find some kind of wiring to convert my type r cluster to read mph instead of kph. I found this thread that was made a long time ago but the links are old and don't work anymore. I have also found multiple threads for wrx clusters and speed sensors...

If when I am driving at 60 and let off the gas, it will get louder. or touch the break it even get the loudest. Dont know what to do. I have the new rotor and break pad all 4 wheels...
  10. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I had this vibration and shake starting around 3 months ago. I took it to the shop and they said I needed new tires which I kind of did. So I bought 2 tires, alignment, and balanced all of the tires. And I still had the shake so I kind of assumed it was the rear 2 tires. So yesterday I took it...
  11. Problems & Solutions RSX
    For some reason I would be driving and when I would reach 55 mph I would hear a humming sound coming from the front passenger tire(i think). That side has a new ball joint if that makes any difference. Sent from my iPhone using AutoGuide.com Free App
  12. Car Audio, Security, & Electronics RSX
    Since this is related to door locks/security I'm going to post it here. Done some searches, but didn't get anything so I wanted to see if there's anyone who has done this or know how to do it. I know the RSX doesn't come with pre-programmed auto-lock door after putting in gear or reaching a...

  16. General RSX Discussion
    I've got a 2003 RSX base model automatic. Last week the check engine light came on (it has since gone off). While I was trying to figure out the cause of the light, I noticed that the engine was doing 2400 rpm at 65mph, is this normal? I'll admit I've never paid attention to my rpm at highway...
