    Hello there. I’m no mechanic by any means, but just like the title states, I’m have a misfire on multiple cylinders, but only when first starting my 2002 Acura RSX Type-S. After the car runs for about 10 seconds, all cylinders start hitting like normal, and it idles beautifully. At times, this...
  2. Problems & Solutions RSX
    There are 3 consecutive high-pitched beeps that only happen after I start rolling on 1st gear after starting the car. This doesn't happen if I go into 1st gear at a red light, only happens right after starting the car. It doesn't happen in neutral, only when the car starts moving while in gear...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViuqJCy1MhA You might have to turn your volume up a little, but since I bought the car a few months ago, it will make this noise on startup whenever it has been sitting for a while. The noise will come, then I can turn the car off instantly after, then turn it...

    Turns out that the knock sensor was the cause. It went out on me so I turned it off in kpro. Since then, everything below started happening. I replaced the sensor yesterday and turned it back on in kpro and everything is back to normal! So this has been happening for the past couple months now...

  12. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Please help. I have a 02 base RSX with 150,000 miles. Recently there has been a squeal on startup when the engine is cold. It only lasts for a second or 2. If you start the car when the engine is warm, it doesn't do it. Is this the serpentine belt? I replaced it about 30k ago but maybe it...
  13. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hello, I notice everytime I start up my car I notice a hissing-like sound, I honestly don't know what it is since I'm not very good with cars at all. It seems to only happen in the morning when it's cold out and not really during the summer-time. I think it's because the car is already warmed...

  19. Problems & Solutions RSX
    Hey, I was hoping that someone has had this problem and knows what is causing the noise. I tried to bring it to the dealer but they can't reproduce it. My 2006 RSX Type S makes a noise right after the car turns over. Seems more like a grinding noise vs a squeal or high pitched noise. It seems...
