  1. ECU Tuning RSX
    The idle on my 03 Type S is driving me crazy. I have cleaned the factory IACV, replaced it with an aftermarket one, calibrated TPS, and adjusted IACV duty cycle. My idle is set at 1000rpm because of mounts and torque damper. Here's my problem: sitting still the idle is perfectly fine, regardless...
  2. Suspension, Chassis & Brakes
    I bought a used 05 RSX-S with 124K. The suspension appears to be stock, and sits at stock ride height but the ride quality so beyond aweful. When I drive it down a bump road it feels like I driving on the rims with no tires. Going over speed bumps feels like nothing is absorbing to hit so it...
  3. Problems & Solutions RSX
    I have a 06 type s. It has been getting really bad mpg this past week, I'm not sure why but I've changed my oil about 2 weeks ago, spark plugs changed about 5k miles ago, cabin air filter looks clean, intake filter is probably dirty but it wouldn't affect the mpg by much i dont think. but i...
  4. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hey guys, I need a little help pin-pointing what exactly is going on with my car. About almost a year ago whenever I tried to start my car, it would start fine, but there would be a little rattle at the end of it. It progressively got worse to the point that it's at now where it sounds...

  10. Wheels & Tires EP3
    Went in to get my winter tires swapped out, and the goonsquad at Town Fair Tire in Manchester, NH decided it would be cool to zip the wheel nuts on with an impact gun and cross thread em. When I got back to pick the car up, a few of the lugs were missing. When I asked the manager what happened...

  12. Car Care RSX
    Hopefully this information is useful for those contemplating on paintless dent removal or mobile repair. I really don't know where to start as his dude messed up my ride from end-to-end with crazy overspray, unmatched paint, paint brush-like strokes, no masking used, accidental spills all over...

  15. Problems & Solutions RSX
    So my car makes this rattling sound like its coming from the front driver wheel or perhaps right somewhere in the hood down and behind the wheel. It only happens when I engage the clutch or am decelerating between 1-4th gear from over 4000 rpms. The sound can best be described as a metal on...

    I'm getting probably less than 300 miles a gallon. I have an 05 type S and its just chugging gasoline worse than a v8. My school is only about 14 miles from my house and my job is only 3 miles from my house. What should I do ? I have exactly 59,000 miles, my alingment is perfect, 95% thread on...
