I agree with Mr. K, this is one of the finest 4cyl turbo cars that Honda built. This turbo is water/oil cool and was built by Mitsubishi Motors, not a Honda turbo, but it is excellent turbo.

I have 2008 RDX. I bought it 2 year old and I drive it for 12 years. 370K on it. Love it in general. All Pros are in the video. Cons are: bad on gas, air conditioner compressor got changed 3 times, turbo gasket gave me a huge problem once. But I put regular in it all the time before and after and it's fine. Also multiple interior "leather" parts needed to be changed or repaired. Noone can figure out the reason of battery drain for years, even though I have bluetooth disconnected. Voice recognition is a joke. Audio system makes some buzzy sound. Too hard to figure out some street names on the Navi.
@dand900 3 ай бұрын
On the turbo how did you know it was just the gasket and not the turbo itself? Did you get the dreaded P2263 error code for boost system performance? I've read a lot about it, but nobody who's been able to fix it, even after replacing the turbo I've heard it's come back.

He did say that it was in for an oil change (I think, I'm not going back and rewatching it). I'm not familiar with Honda/Acura icons, but some of the change oil lights are really really close to check engine lights (my wife's car fooled her the first time she needed a change).

Peter Hemingway that is absolutely a check engine light, not a service engine soon/oil change light

My 13 escape has 310000km everything is original. Just done regular maintenance. Finally doing a water pump, thermostat,temp sensor and coolant bypass valve just because its got 300k on it. Even the transmission has never been serviced. Now we don't abuse it just enjoy it. And it has been great. The first 13 escape we had had the 2.5l and it was even better till a deer killed it with 375000km. But the ecoboost isn't terrible if you don't treat it like a racecar. And simply just drive it

I shouldn't say most people, but a lot of people that have a turbo overuse it and are not very knowledgeable about automotive equipment and don't or won't properly maintain it. Acuras like Lexus will be more expensive when they do break, but whatever floats your boat. I'll take a regular Honda or Toyota and bank the difference. I'm old also lol

I love the RDX turbo bit the reason they ditched the turbo 4 is because it got just as bad mileage as a 6 but without being smooth ..so they went to a 6
