March 2007 marks the 5th proud year of ownership of my trusty MDX. The odometer has barely clicked off 28,174 miles. The OEM transmission perform's flawlessly. Even more incredible, the OEM battery still works like a charm. My MDX has been a solid performer and a reliable workhorse. It still feels like a "new car" to me. Whether First or Second Generation, I hope you enjoy your MDX as much as I have enjoyed mine.:29:
It's good to hear from you. Thanks for your unwaivering interest in The Official "Hottest Thongs" Thread. 508,315 views has got to be an acuramdx.org all-time record. It was a good run. I hope your MDX continues to run even better.:7:
My OEM battery finally gave out at 5 years and 28,370 miles of dependable service. I replaced it with the Costco Kirkland battery @ $44.99. The #3 is the correct application for the MDX. Made by Johnson Controls, it has 700 CA, 550 CCA, and a 100 month limited warranty. Consumer tip: Take your Costco Kirkland battery back to the store before the first 36 months, and you can get a brand-new replacement for FREE. :4:
I just received and installed the BumperBib XLE SUV in my MDX. This is "just what the doctor ordered" to help prevent damage to the rear bumper when loading and unloading objects that can scratch the paint. Now I will be "armed and ready" for wheeled luggage the next time I have to use my trusty MDX for an airport run. This product will work well with first and second generation MDX's.
