  1. Any owners in Oregon that want to help with getting a roof rack kit made for our cars in Oregon? (Yakima)

    I'm in the Seattle area and just signed up. It will be a fun trip to Voodoo Donuts if nothing else! We'll see if anything happens.
  2. Android Auto

    I've had this problem too and it's been maddening. I've done 3 factory resets (thank God for the user settings export function) but I think I've figured it out. My Pixel 6 will connect via Android Auto but will only show up in Bluetooth audio mode. Android Auto is actually connected but...
  3. Cargo net

    Remove the weather stripping, then there are 4 clips holding the trim piece in place. They are oriented vertically and point down, and are all spaced pretty evenly along the tip of the trim piece. They are this type of clip:
  4. Cargo net

    You don't actually need the rivet gun tool. I installed the Acura cargo net, including the rivet nuts, using the method I found in this link:. https://www.spyderindustries.com/blogs/news/diy-how-to-install-nut-inserts-rivet-nuts It ended up being really easy.
  5. What are your audio settings?

    He makes a good point. My grandfather lost much of his hearing in WWII so he would shout all the time in normal conversation. His hearing was so bad that he fell asleep seeing Stargate in the theater. He had 50 grandchildren by the time he passed, and because he always shouted every one of us...
  6. Ridiculously Low MPG, Whats going on!

    Perhaps manufacturers know the limits of precision in the fuel system sensors and injectors hardware and then program the cars to prioritize the most optimistic data when validating sensor readings? Just a theory, but I can't think of another reason. I had two WRXs, 2015 & 2018, that also...
  7. Ridiculously Low MPG, Whats going on!

    I have discovered that my Integra's computer is a little optimistic with regards to the mileage it reports by about 3%. I try to record the computer reported gas mileage for each tank when I fill up, which allows me to compare the computer calculated mileage to the actual mileage based on...
  8. Dash Switching to Sport mode on shifter S

    Yes, they all start in Normal, if turned off in Sport or Individual, or Comfort if turned off in Comfort. Individual mode allows you to disable auto stop. The EPA doesn't like that, and their rules require that if auto stop is going to be used in calculating EPA mileage, that the car turns on...
  9. Dash Switching to Sport mode on shifter S

    In general automatic D will turn lower revs than automatic S with the CVT. My CVT will turn the engine at a lower RPM level while driving a constant 70 mph on the freeway in automatic D mode than it will in automatic S mode. S will never actually shift to as high a gear ratio while cruising...
  10. Ridiculously Low MPG, Whats going on!

    28 miles is a very small sample size, too small to draw conclusions from. Expect lower mileage for the first 600-1,000 miles due to parts breaking in. After reaching 1,000 miles try monitoring each fill-up. If you're still very low over the course of the first 3 or 4 tanks that come after...
  11. Difference between S mode vs dynamic sport mode. CVT

    D mode is basically fully automatic CVT mode for when you don't want to think. You can use paddle shifters to "change gear", but a short time after you stop using the paddles the CVT will go back to doing its own thing. S mode also has an automatic mode which is more performance oriented than...
  12. Driver's Side Dash Buzz

    I checked this wiring in my car as I have a similar sound from that area and I found that the wiring in my car is quite tight as well. The large yellow connector has some play within the connection area itself, but is pretty quiet when I do move it and doesn't seem like a candidate for the...
  13. Dashboard Rattle

    The left side of steering column/dash area rattle has been very tough for me. I've padded anything that looks like it could move and it keeps coming back, but inconsistently. Sometimes very loud, sometimes soft, and always very hard to pinpoint. I'm hoping to go back in this weekend to see...
  14. Random Bolt/Pin fell out of the steering column of 2023 Integra

    I've looked around inside my steering column quite a bit looking for rattles, and I don't recall seeing a piece like that loose anywhere. I wasn't looking for something like that though, so could have missed it. I'd make the dealer figure out where it's from and do the work necessary to ensure...
  15. Dashboard Rattle

    For the benefit of anyone who wants to work on the seatbelt adjusters, hardwire a radar detector or dash cam, or do anything else to quiet down their Integra's interior, here is what I've been using, all ordered from Amazon or bought at Lowe's: JVCC FELT-06 Polyester Felt Tape 1mm Thickness -...
  16. Dashboard Rattle

    The seatbelt adjusters for the driver's seatbelt and front passenger's seatbelt are extremely noisy. Both of my adjusters were rattling terribly to the point that even my wife noticed them, and she is not attentive at all to this kind of thing when riding in my car. Since they're right next to...
  17. Dashboard Rattle

    Here's the TSB, it doesn't look too hard to do. I've decided that I'll be far more successful just doing the rattle proofing myself rather than hoping that the dealer will care enough to really look, and if they do try, hoping they they'll actually find the problems.
  18. Dashboard Rattle

    There is a TSB for a rattle from the infotainment area for the 2022 Civic with the same 9" screen that we have. That might be your issue if you have that screen. I've spent a lot of time chasing rattles in my Integra so far. This Integra began life with far fewer rattles than my '18 WRX did...
  19. Spare Tire

    I actually stumbled across a file where I had recorded the part number: "Temporary Wheel Kit" - 06421-3S5-A10. The site, on 7/17/22, listed an MSRP of $160.18. I had five accessory items I was researching, and as compared to that corporate site, my dealer's prices for those five were higher...
  20. Spare Tire

    There is actually an Acura OEM accessory part number for a spare tire, I think it was a donut spare. If you subscribe for service manual access (https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/logon.aspx) you also get access to the parts system and can find really good information. My dealer didn't know...
