2005 Acura RSX 2dr Hatch
210-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD
| 83500 mi US $420 |
Cleaned relay causing intermittent cylinder 1 misfire. Incorrect initial diagnosis resulted in purchase of fuel injectors (now on-hand, unused -- cannot return). Also tried fuel additive (2x) suspecting bad gas and injector blockage. |
| 130000 mi US $850 |
Replaced compressor. Old unit was leaking refrigerant. |
| 145000 mi US $15 |
replaced main headlight bulbs |
| 72500 mi | Tail light assemblies filling with water, ~1 inch deep in left, condensation spots on right. Acura Carland dealer goodwill warranty repair. |
| 117000 mi US $125 |
Replaced both (2) windshield/back window fluid spray motors (mounted on the washer container). |
| 90200 mi US $300 |
After 90000+ miles, the only repair items have been a set of brake pads at 82,000 and a set of head light bulbs. The RSX seems to eat head light bulbs regularly. Other than that, completely bullet proof car. I wish they still built them, I'd buy another. |
2005 Acura RSX 2dr Hatch
160-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD
| 82000 mi US $300 |
Replaced the following driver side door window parts: Regulator & Run Channel. |
2005 Acura RSX 2dr Hatch
160-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD
| 115000 mi US $440 |
Engine would crank but very briefly, then not at all. Lights worked fine. Cranking was more labored when cold. Gradual problem where engine would eventually start after several tries. Eventually did not respond to tries. Replaced starter. |
| 194000 mi US $900 |
AC clutch and compressor failed. Had to be replaced along with the dryer |
