  1. Defect in shifter/gearbox or is this normal?

    I bought a new 2016 BMW 328i 6MT and although it's not a popular opinion, I loved that shifter/clutch combo. It felt very smooth. My Integra A Spec 6MT does need more effort to get into the gates than that BMW or my 07 TSX 6MT This might be what you are experiencing. I think the best thing...
  2. Autocross megathread

    Yeah, I'm also interested in hearing more about the EV ride and drive. Was it sponsored by Honda/Acura?
  3. Review: 2024 Acura Integra Type S - In Defense of the Type S

    After having two TLX loaners, I am still surprised how little I desire a car which should be an upgrade from the Integra. Other than interior materials, there is nothing it does better (in regular or Type S trims) than it's little brother.
  4. What should I ask for my 2024 Integra?

    I would take the higher amount between CarMax and Carvana and be done with it. Since the car you want is private owner, no ability to trade and I doubt dealers will give you more. Private sale would take a while and probably only net $1,500 over the Carvana number.
  5. Excessive Seat Bolster Wrinkle?

    I would confirm you don't get water in the trunk with it misaligned before giving up on that one. I remember a few people on here had that issue.
  6. Ultimate Sticky Steering poll (CVT/6MT)

    Good idea on this poll. It definitely seems to be more frequent in the 6MT, not sure how many CVT owners are on here. However, my son has a '23 CVT so it is really easy to feel the differences in steering. I haven't had the sticking in my 6MT addressed since it doesn't happen until warmed up...
  7. Oil Analysis at 5k (Blackstone Labs Report)

    You can always not reset the maint minder when performing your own oil change and get every other one covered by Acura.
  8. How are the Tech Orchid interiors holding up?

    Knocking on wood, surprisingly not bad. I'm at 12,000 miles and 17 months and still looking good. I am pretty diligent about trying to keep it clean so that helps. Ironically, my son has a Tech in red and those seats are harder to keep looking decent. Part of it is use, but also part of it is...
  9. Is there a Valet Mode?

    I had my 2010 Mazda 3 GT's clutch burnt out by a valet. The car was less than 2 years old with about 10,000 miles on it following a family wedding. The car smelled as it came around, I took possession of the car since it was so late for my 4 year old but kept the parking slip just in case. I...
  10. In The Market for ITS

    Exactly this, the A Spec 6MT will feel rather similar to give you a decent gauge. I had a '16 328 6MT and my wife drives a Macan S. All 3 are great vehicles. If you really want a manual, nobody does it better than Acura/Honda. If that's not a huge consideration, you might prefer the interior...
  11. [Solved] Low speed drivetrain rattles?

    My 6MT A-Spec has no such noise. Hopefully your dealer will investigate further.
  12. List of Honest Acura Dealerships For Type S (MSRP vs Markup List -- Integra Type S)

    Found a dealer in South Jersey willing to do MSRP with no add ons, and maybe even a little less.
  13. ITS or other performance vehicle?

    I just test drove my first Type S a few days ago. The clutch seemed similar in throw length, slightly heavier in weight, than my A Spec with 10,000 miles on it. Others who have spent more time with both models might have additional input.
  14. Emergency brake failed

    I'm thinking this was the cause. I had an Infiniti G35 Coupe 6MT roll out of my driveway in similar conditions. Parking brake was still on. With low profile tires, this can certainly happen.
  15. Emergency brake failed

    Was your driveway snow covered and a hill?
  16. Second Mod: Remark Exhaust on my ASpec 6sp

    Very cool. How long did install take?
  17. Oil Change A1

    My son's Integra has been on the road since April with 5,200 miles, and is still at 40%. More importantly, it's been at 40% for over 1,000 miles and a couple months. Does that seem right? Will it drop much after 40% like the gas gauge does after half a tank?
  18. How easily is your Integra Type S getting rock chips?

    Acura/Honda paint is certainly not the quality of the premium European brands. Knowing that, I still didn't get PPF as I don't need my car to look perfect. However, for someone who wants to avoid all blemishes, I would say PPF is more important with this brand than your past makes.
  19. Advice on Integra options vs Civic or ILX for teenager

    I leased an Integra A Spec Tech for my 16 year old son, and have had the ILX as a service loaner when my Integra needed service. I would say any of these work. I think the weak spots are as follows. ILX accelerates faster compared with a little CVT bog (not a bad thing for a teen driver!)...
  20. **Official Integra Forum Members' Type S Reviews**

    As an Apex Blue A Spec 6MT owner, I agree with almost all of these pros and cons. Interesting to see they remain the same, if maybe at a higher degree, in the Type S.
