2002 Acura RSX Type-S review from North America
"You won't be dissapointed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Noisey fanbelt-Dealer replaced belt at 60000km warranty covered.
SRS warning light kept lighting up. Dealer reset computer fee of charge (3 times)
Check engine light comes on time to time. usually fueling the car up shuts it down. I figure its the fuel door or stopper not properly closed.
Dohnut gasket on exaust manifold leaked when I gunned it! No warranty
gasket kit - around $60 cdn.
General comments?
The car is great! never fails even in really cold weather -30 or below..
Very quick and fun to drive!
Cheap on fuel. (about 30% less than my 4cyl tj)
Bose stereo don't have quality sound I expected. NO equalizer really sucks. subwoofer is effective, but could use improvements or upgrades..
