I finally found the source of the loudest rattle in the car. It’s coming from my passenger seat trim where the controls are. There appears to be some bracket with a hole in it and a stem that rests on it. Looks like there should be a screw or clip there.
Can anyone confirm? You can just push...
Hand washed the car a few months ago and noticed it. Ignored it for a couple months since you can only see it from certain angles. But after washing it recently I can't unsee it. Was trying to save a trip to the dealer and go when my oil change is due but I'm at 40%. Sent Acura Customer service...
So a few of my doors are off and a passenger fender is raised slightly. When I press the door down with my hand it will sit flush. I went to one dealer in So Cal and service guy mentioned it's pretty common, his RDX was like that and then he took photos to forward it to a body shop but I...

In my apartment's private lot. If I parked any farther from the line I'd be on the curb....no note or anything. I put a sign up next to it in case the neighbors saw anything to contact me.
Anyone know of a good body shop in the Bay Area? Looks like the scuffs will buff out the panels easy but...
Drove it a couple days ago and it was fine. Started it up today and it makes a loud clunking/mechanical popping from the front end.
Any known failures like this could be the source? Car handles fine and a spot check behind the wheel looked ok.

Something I noticed quickly since CA has aggressive speed bumps every 10 ft in every parking lot.
You can really feel the impact when it hits the rears. And I'm assuming it is because the stiffer rear end and thinner tires. But damn, It's comical at times, I wish the adaptive dampers mitigated...
