Just wanted to post a screen shot that my engine temp is under 165 degrees and my engine is in 3 cyl mode. 2022 Acura MSX type s 3.0 turbo

Confirmed: The S-VCM doesn’t work on my 2022 MDX type s. Not sure if all the j series DOHC engines will react the same or not

I got the app installed and the obd2 dongle today. I can’t find the PID for cylinder count. Is this something special?

So, funny you mention this. I have a 2022 MDX type S with the J30AC. 3.0 turbo charged. It has VCM and I installed S-VCM on my MDX over the winter time and I swear that it doesn’t work. I should say that the S-VCM works as intended, lowering the coolant temp to 165 degrees, but I swear the...

And this is why I don’t come here very often any more. If any one does anything that’s not oem or downsizing wheels and tires your all over them like stink on ****. If people want to modify their car or truck with an air filter, exhaust and some aftermarket wheels then so be it. It’s not hurting...

Wow this went off the rails

You have completely missed the point of this. Nothing to do with saving money. HPL is quite a bit more pricey than picking oil out of the clearance isle. If you have any real input on the best way to keep warranty intact and do diy oil changes then I’d love it hear it.

This ain’t the first bad experience with these knuckle heads…….

I’d think that would be more proof than a store receipt. I could buy oil and filter and never change my oil vs a time stamped picture of my license plate and used oil.

I forgot to mention that I do have 4 gallons of HPL and I would like to use HPL being that this engine is turbocharged and direct injected. Also, I don’t mind bringing it in for certain services just because

I purchased a 2022 CPO Acura MDX Type S back in July and a CPO car comes with a 100,000 mile power train warranty. I asked service about doing my own oil changes and how that would effect warranty in case I ever need to use it. They simply said that as long as I have documentation of it being...

It’s a bad batch of engines. The weight of the oil doesn’t make a difference in this situation

Sounds like the fiasco I had at Acura. They made it right in the end but it took a lot of fighting.

My new ride has 21 inch wheels. I must get 5 gallons per mile!

That is completely wrong. Side bags deployed all the time in a side impact.

I hustle. All the other slugs in the shop that truck would have been on the rack for 2 weeks. Or crying that their back hurts.

2 days

Just have it moved to a closer shop that will total it out. The other game they play is write a cheap estimate knowing there is more damage so the insurance approves the job. Then, fix the truck and send the insurance a bill for the rest of the stuff they missed up front. By then it’s beyond a...

I work in a body shop as a tech and I feel like that estimate on your truck is way to low. For example I just did a frame swap on a 2022 Ram 1500 and the only body damage was a front bumper. The final bill on that job was $20,000. How can you tell me that your 3/4 ton pick up that needs a frame...

Yup. Oem is not always that great either. Can you say lack of material applied to panel and tiger stripes lol
