I have a 2005 Acura MDX and felt the car noisy while driving after a while the vsa light came on and stayed on. Thank god I purchased an extended warranty because this happened 1 month after the manufacturers warranty expire. They had to replace the transmission at a cost of $3900.

I took my 2005 Acura MDX in to the dealership to have an unusual sound checked out. It occurs while accelerating slowly to about 40mph. I was told that the torque converter needed to be replaced. I had a warranty purchase when I bought the vehicle so I did not incur any expense for this repair. The next week, the D4 light was blinking indicating a possible problem with the transmission. I took it in again and I was told that the 4th gear pressure switch was probably defective, as it was just replaced along with the torque converter. Ironically, a friend was having the same problem. She took her 2005 MDX in for service, had the torque converter replaced (unfortunately she did incur an expense), and the next day her D4 light was blinking. Her vehicle is being repaired as I write this complaint. My concern is that the transmission in this vehicle is defective altogether. As I have done a little research, I have discovered that this is fairly common with the Acura MDX model.
