Sorry to my subscribers that I haven’t made a follow-up video to my original reviews. Unfortunately, I was very unhappy with my car because of the glitches in the infotainment system. So much so that I didn’t want to invest any more effort into doing anything with it. Acura had put out a couple of updates to help improve the problems with it but, I feel they still had a long way to go. Especially with their navigation and integration with CarPlay. Otherwise, the car was mechanically sound and ran well. As of a few weeks ago while I was getting my oil changed at my Acura dealer, I was speaking with the sales manager about my disappointment with the car and that I don’t even like getting into it everyday. After some discussion, three days later I was driving away in a 2019 MDX Tech. All I did was exchange keys as he was able to make me a good enough deal where my payment wouldn’t go up at all. I’m sure he didn’t want to lose my business as I’ve bought a few cars through that dealership. Besides, he made a profit too. I couldn’t be happier with what I’ve done as I’m loving getting in my car everyday again. Although the MDX is getting dated, everything works as it should without delay or problems. I’ve owned a few of the older Acura styles from the past so being back in a car with the double screens is like coming home. I’m glad they are back. If any of you have purchased the new RDX, I hope you have better luck than I had.

Very good info. Picking up my new RDX Advanced next month and your videos are a great advance help. Keep them coming.

Thank you. Very informative. Can't wait for the next video. Maybe about the rear seats, spare tire, and so on. Keep up the good work.

Excellent info I haven't seen elsewhere while researching which car to buy. Thanks!

Thank you for taking the time to post the small details.

I have my second Acura now. My first was a 2007 TSX. I wanted that car so badly that I sat at the dealership for almost 6 hours negotiating a price! I'm happy to say, they caved in. It was a great car and it had over 120,000 miles before I traded it for a roomier vehicle. I just wanted to give you a backstory before this. First let me say that you make really good videos on this vehicle. Secondly, there was the part in the video about the lock button near the rear hatch handle. I have a 2016 Advance RDX and it does have the lock button on the side of the rear hatch handle. So that was in the last model generation. I like the auto seat temps. That's a cool feature. As well as the auto high beams, heads-up display, speed limit signage--i could go on and on but then that'd make me jealous...lol. I actually wrote to Acura after I purchased my 2016 RDX and informed them that on upcoming models they needed to include rear heated seats, rear charging ports and a panoramic roof. The thing is, i was actually a bit upset because Acura prides itself on "ADVANCE". However, they seem to slow down when it came to features in the last RDX. All the features they have now should have been included in the previous model. Even Ford, if I'm not mistaken, was the first car company to introduce the rear kick panel. That should have been Acura first in my opinion. I am glad to say that they did listen to the customers(i hope) about these most needed features. Man, you got the top-of-the-line model with nothing left out didn't cha? I'm still enjoying my 2016 but I'm happy for ya chief! I'm happy that you got a good, reliable, fully featured vehicle that makes you love it so much you almost don't want to go in the house...lol. I'll be waiting on more of your videos about this awesome machine so keep 'em comin'! Thanks.

Thank you so much for the detail! These are the things I want to see more in reviews! Will done sir!

You did a great job, better than most reviewers)) thank you!

Just wanted to say, I reviewed all your videos and they're excellent. Far superior than the big boys. Keep up the good work. I currently have a MDX looking at the A spec RDX, Your videos have been very helpful and informative.

I have had my car for nine months and never knew some of the features you pointed out in your video! Thanks!

Thanks. I have learnt new features to use from your video.

Thank you, that was super helpful. you should do this in depth review for all cars

Excellent review! Didn't hear about the tire pressure beep except on your review! Thanks! My first Acura was one of the first Acuras - a 1987 Integra that gave me 260,000 relatively trouble free miles. I now drive a fully optioned 2004 Toyota Sienna XLE limited but the new and mind boggling upgrades on the Acura are causing me to return and become an Acura customer again. Lexus just doesn't have the features the Acura does at this price point and your review helped prove that.

Thanks for doing this video. Im getting one in January!

Learned about rear button for locking and headlight demo was excellent. These 2 features were not on other reviews. Thanks

Nicely done with helpful information.

Nice video and thumps up just the fact you kept saying thank you/ thanks lol. Much love, peace.

Thanks and I agree the details you showed were very interesting. Thinking about getting one and it would be the Advance package with SH-AWD because I love all the tech. Years ago I did own a 2004 MDX that I was happy with, sold it to a friend and they have around 150,000 miles on it and still love the vehicle. Wish the rear turn signals in the RDX were LED and not incandescent. May have to mod it if I get one. Thanks again for the video.

So helpful! Most other reviews just don't go in on the details of the features

Nice video with many of the subtle features of the '19 RDX. Mine is a Tech model. Our second RDX, after three MDX's. The "19 RDX has superb sound deadening. This years RDX is very quiet compared to the previous '17 RDX. Now about the NAV system...oiy vey.

Thanks for showing the seat features... the adjustable seat bolster is an awesome feature! being a bigger guy, it's hard to find a good fitting seat! I'm gonna try the Acura!

your videos help me to learn a lots thanks.

Thank you soo much! This was really helpful

Excellent information. Good job

amazing details review, thanks

Thanks for the info. It's easier than searching through the owners manual.

Than you! This is helpful. I pick up my gun metal grey advance on Thursday.

Great videos. Can you do a review of the adjustable suspension and how much difference it makes when changing drive modes?

Good stuff! I take delivery of mine in a few days.

Got mine yesterday, the advanced package, 2021. Awesome car 🚗

Good Info-Thank You!!

Verry well done , Thank you

This is my 3rd Acura! My first was an 1994 Acura Integra Coupe! She went 10 years 135k miles on the first engine then 2 subsequent engines where each went about 5k each! Then bought a 2012 TSX Tech pkg still going strong at 37k and now the new RDX Tech package! Couldn’t pay $3 grand extra and upwards to $10 grand extra for the same 4-cylinder engine! I Love This vehicle! The navigation sucks even in the 2012 TSX! LEXUS has the better infotainment system in my opinion though! I do wish the engine noise was quieter, a touch screen navigation would have been best...still getting use to that touch pad thingy and an electric/power tilt&telescoping steering wheel would have been great...for a $40+ thousand vehicle it should at least be an option! Maybe by the end of my lease, they will have a V6 option and better navigation! Overall, I’m very pleased with my decision!

Really useful. Thank you.

Much appreciated. Thank you.

This was excellent.

Great Video... A lot of videos on KZfaq definitely don't cover the little small features and quirks!

Great video! The infotainment/Nav is the sticking point for me in buying the RDX. Could you do a video on the infotainment TTI? What's your experience with CarPlay? Thanks!

Thanks for the details! I had no idea. My questions on advanced features are 1) how is the lane centering function (is it accurate and comfortable to use) and 2) are you able to configure the cabin temp from the mobile app and; if not, how annoying is it?

Great review.. can you please do a review on android auto now that these cars have it .. thank you

Thank you! Just purchased a 2019 RDX Advanced Pkg. No manual to explain features or how to program / change info screen. Tried changing and setting up the 3D ELS studio sound system. No info on this. If you have another video, I’d appreciate watching it.

Thanks for sharing these details. How would you rate the overall driving experience and quietness of the car at highway speeds?

Very nice!!!!

Good video

Very helpful

I don't regret buying this car I love everything about it

Great video. How effective have you found the rain sensing wipers to be?

Excellent overview of features not seen in most reviews - very informative! Couple of questions, does the 'trip computer' reading in the dash display elapsed time since turning on the engine? And, secondly, I hear the A-SPEC RDX doesn't have a spare time, rather a tire repair kit? I know you have an Advance version, but I was wondering if you can confirm this since you seem to be quite knowledgeable about Acuras. Thanks and keep posting more of your experiences with your new RDX.

awesome. THANKS.

Nice video. You demonstrated how the side mirrors tilt down if you hold the button. Do they also fold in when parked?

Auto Car walk away lock is an old feature from 2016 Honda Pilot EX and above, which I have. Acura is a bit slow in getting the latest features.

Little things anyone says. Good video

Subscribed! Great video, you include the details most others leave out. Does the mirror switch have a middle setting so both mirrors tilt down when you put it in reverse?

Thanks for the information. I’m planning on purchasing an advance model when I can get somewhat of a deal, maybe early next year. Question, did you have a rubber wrap on your key fob? I was curious of the options on the key fob. I can’t believe they don’t offer remote start via the key fob.

Catman-Thank you! You features review is very helpful. Small question: How did you get the tire pressure view in the multi-function display?

How do you change the setting of the zoom level in the navigation screen? It always reverts back to 500 ft.

Great video Sir and nice car. The Advance has active suspension. In Comfort mode, is the ride more plush or the same as the Technology package with same size wheels?

Is there a way to quickly add a destination address in Navigation?

Great video, Thank you. May I ask you how the adaptative cruise control works on the 2019’s vs previous model. When the car slows down because you drive faster than the car in front of you, you put your turn signal to overtake and you move to the left lane, the car keeps slowing down instead of accelerating. That was very annoying compared to some Volvo, BMW or Audi systems. Hope Acura improved it on the 2019 model. Thank you for you feedback.

Great video; thanks. Couple of questions: When opening trunk with your foot, is this a standard feature on Advanced model or did you pay extra for it? Does the rear-view mirror automatically adjust for each driver or do you have to do it manually? Again, thanks.

how do you like he LKA on higher speeds... does it steer the car automatically in place?

For hot countries I hope Acura and many other brands will consider heat ventilated back seat, instead of heated, at least if they forced to add one of them.

I have some great information my 2019 Acura RDX Just had The electronic brake booster fail just out of warranty they would not cover through corporate Acura. Car had just 52K .. Had to pay $2500 to get it repaired so I took the part home checked it out the electronic portion the module made in Mexico that explains everything!! I’m done with Acura!!

Nice videos. Is there a way to label destination 'favorite' in navigation vs. just seeing address?

In the trunk, when you want access to the hidden cubby-hole, there is no way to hold the flap up automatically, or perhaps have some way to hang it from the ceiling. Am surprised the engineers missed one thing. A small issue but I would expect they will resolve that on future models.

Thanks

Nice video and do this have remote start?

Do you know if there is a way to adjust the settings so that the interior lights come on after turning the vehicle off. When it's dark out it's pitch black in there and I can't see what the heck I'm doing! LIke previous vehicles, I feel the dome lights should illuminate rather than just the dull dashboard lights. I looked in the settings and it says it is set for 30 seconds but it's still dark as can be...

Wanted to ask you about the current version of Acuralink. I need remote start, have an iphone7+ and when looking at reviews on the app store they were mostly very negative. How are your feelings on the app and service?

Many people states that the infotainment system freezes a lot. Did this happen to you?

How do you answer or cancel calls over Bluetooth? Is there a dedicated button on the steering wheel?

Two questions: What does the button on the top right of the touchpad, to the right of the home button do? Looks like a partially depleted battery. Secondly, is there a way to turn on the around view camera without being in reverse? I use it for pulling forward sometimes to get closer to things. Most cars have a separate button which we can activate below certain speeds. Thanks!

What about folding mirrors

Thx

The side mirror feature has been around for decades. =/ Don't know if its the first for acura but dont think so.

Good video. One question, do the side mirrors fold in?

How hard is it to work the entertainment system with that touch screen configuration thing?

Catman70 - your tire pressure looks a bit high. Should be 33 cold. You’re at 41. Do you see that much of an increase when driving?

It seems kinda big, do you think it will fit in a small one car garage, condo

I do have a 2020 acura Rdx

What MPG have you been observing?

i thought theres remote start on the advance model?

I haven't figured out what the lower area of the center console is for. What do you use it for?

Catman. Sorry that setting for the MID does not work. It does for a little time but then it keeps defaulting to the stupid trip computer. Makes no sense. I spoke to soon. Sorry about that.

Do the rear seats recline?

is there an eco mode?

👍👍👍👍

Does the car have auto folding side mirrors?

I cannot, for the life of me find a button to power fold in the side mirrors. Is that really not an option on the advanced model??!

How did you get your mpg to go up to 25? What's your secret?

👌🏽

Does it come with side windows

Those mirrors should just both go down when you put the car in reverse

Don't you guys know 2019 rdx has 2-3 gear transmission issue? even acura acknowledges the problem.. but they cant fix it!

0:40 So when he washed his rear windshield and camera his backup sensor tripped? LOL! "i'll get back to you in bit". I could just see it triggered constantly everytime I wash my rear windshield...

The cat is out of the bag now.

Neato! No wireless charging though.... booooo Acura!
