- In this video I give a full in depth tour of a 2004 Acura MDX. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this suv while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this suv designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
My absolute favorite generation MDX and one of my all time favorite vehicles. It does and has all you’d need in a vehicle and on top of that it’s just gorgeous.
My dad has one with over 220k miles. Rusting and tons of lost features from him never maintaining it correctly or treating it well, but it still runs. Acuras from the 2000s were made with Hondas best.
Once again Kyle, you nailed it. Absolute perfect review, I’m planning on buying one next week. Your vid showed everything I wanted to see. I’m buying my mother in laws mdx and I don’t remember it very well due to only driving it a few times during last years major snow storms. Thank you very much. I deffinatly will buy it now since I’m driving a 01 Grand Prix gt on it’s last legs. Now that I remember it I did fix a few things on it last year, one blown fuse, one headlight bulb and hood supports were shot. Very simple things to fix and happen with any car. Ever since she has been driving my sister in law to her chemotherapy appointments and it still never skipped a beat.
Love my 2001 Acura MDX
I drove the car for 250,000 miles and it still runs, I love the car and is great in general. The car is built to last and I have had very few problems with it over the 8 years and I plan for it to go for another 200,000 miles. The back row, and middle row both fold down which is great for when I need the extra trunk space for work. You can be surprised how much the car fits. I like this car better than the 2006 lexus rx I had. I like how the car is sporty and the engine is loud.Good 1st car too.
It’s been 8 years do you still have it?
yes! it is a very reliable car and we still have it after 7 years!
My 5th grade teacher had a Billet Silver Metallic one just like this, no nav or Bose or DVD, had a Black Leather interior and Dark Wood interior trim, AWD Base Model...... still has it (I'm in 9th grade now), and she bought it used in 2006. Nice truck.
Its a really nice car if well taken care. Mine is 2001 and has 217000 and runs like new.
We have an 06 back at home, my mom bought it new at the end of 06 about 3 years before I was born. It’s still going with 170,000 miles, it’s now my brothers car. It’s hanging by a thread though. We might sell it soon,
“starts up perfectly” LOL
My Dad has 230,000 miles on his 04 MDX and it is still running great! There has been very few problems!... and as I have just got my license he is giving me this car. This car is great for reliability and I plan to drive this car for another 5 years until I graduate college. I am excited for the car and I agree that it will be a good first car.
Ghettolyfe Clan be wise with the vtec
My dad bought me this car for my birthday and i like it it has lots of room in it.
Great video as always Kyle! Keep up the good work!
the 2001-2006 Acura MDX was assembled in
Alliston, Ontario, Canada
my 2002 acura mdx is.. well pretty good for having 180K miles. it has that fabled transmission problem and the interior is kinda baked from Sacramento CA sun... but the engine still sounds and preforms better than my 2015 mdx. the hydrolic power steering is also much better than the new electric power steering. and last but not least, being able to lock the diff actually saved my ass one time.
I've got the 06 base and the transmission problem infects mine as well, dealer won't do anything about it. But you say you can lock the diff? How do you do that? I understand that you could go into 4 wheel drive in first and second.

Are these good on gas ?
David Fuller hell no, it averages 15mpg for me
Great review! You provided a nice in-depth review. I'm thinking about getting one. I love CUVs. These have enough space for college students to pack what they need to.
anyone else notice it has a lot of gears on the shifter? o.o
I have a 03 Pilot EX-L, these are really nice SUVs both the Pilot and MDX
There was a dead bug on top of the sunroof.
Always liked these, especially in this color, silver, & red :)
i love this suv/crossover. it had AWD with a center diff lock, i saw it to the driver's right.
the 2001-2006 (Acura) 2003-2006 (Honda) Acura MDX/Honda MDX was assembled in
Alliston, Ontario, Canada
@koioo2 The CRX isn't for sale anymore in the EU. It was based on the Civic, first generation from 1983-1987, second generation from 1988-1992 and the thirt was the last, produced from 1992-1998.
I don't know if it is on sale in America, but in Europe is there the CR-Z, in fact the fourth generation of the CRX, introduced this year. Wich s a hybrid by the way.
The closest car in the EU to the Acura in this video, is probably the CR-V, please correct me if I'm wrong.
i love this truck we have a 2005 at home, amazing performace too :P
You couldn't get the 5-spoke rims for the MDX of this model year in Canada.
dream car i start driving next year
Navigation, power passenger seat, and memory driver's seat were all optional...the touring model had those features, so it's only missing two "Lexus like" features...very close to par if you ask me.
i love this car

Great review, could you do the Pathfinder next to it (current model)
Thanks!
yay, this car is so cool i love it! :)
Would appreciate it if you could do a review of a 2012 Acura MDX
@MrAcid125 nope its missing some features iike nav and backup camera. I should know as I have the exact car.
How much is your Acura MDX?
Sad that these are hard to find with low mileage
Yeah. My mom has one and I love it to death. I would honestly love to buy one for my first car (And this is coming from a car guy)
Youngling Number 9 I did have one as my first car, a 2004. They are surprisingly fast, faster than they look, really good at exploiting gaps. The handling is also amazing, outstanding for an SUV. I guess thanks to the 4 wheel independent suspension but it really handles like an Accord
HondaGuyMatt mine has 180K miles!
Matt Rowlands They're amazing cars. My mom had a 2006 MDX.
Eamon Conners I'm looking for a car. I'm 13 almost 14 and getting ready for life ahead. I have 3 cars that I would see reasonable
This car
2006 Honda Accord
2008 Lexus GS which is the best in ur option
Nice review. What's the song that was playing at 5:03-5:08?
Can you do a review on the 2011 Acura MDX

@topdollars2 that i did t know europe does t have acura never sat in a CR-V either
thank you
you should do more test drives
in europe if am correct goes under honda crx
yo what car do you drivenow?
kyle i really like your vids but as a long time subscriber i just want to say ur vids are too long! We dont need to hear every time that ull limit noise cause ur close to hwy(we know) Plus ur vids have no specific order (u show the car in the beg start it up get out show agian the show interior and then show the outside yet again) i think you need to plan ur vids out....and make them have order and a much shorter time agian just some constructive criticism and i really like what u do!!
@shiguaman yes lol its not a expedition .
wow this car is seriously fully loaded......
the transmission on the 2001-2006 (Acura) 2003-2006 (Honda) Acura MDX/Honda MDX
Transmission
5-speed automatic
i'm 16 and my mom is giving me her's. same car but in silver. is it good for me? i'm a responsible driver and i don't speed but is it easy to maneuver and handle?
Nice Car
This is a nice suv/cuv, but where are the Lexus like features, power tilt/telescopint wheel,power passenger seat, nevagation, power lift gate, and memory drivers seat. I've always liked these, but its too much like my 2001 Toyota Camry LE, Leather, Sunroof, Wood Grain, Remote Entery, and Power Drivers Seat. Still a nice CUV, just not up to par.
@dieselbox604 no man , hat was the MUSIC !
@5:11 Reminds me of Harold and Kumar go to Whitecastle and Bridesmaids lmao
@topdollars2 i ment CR-V or CRV
Just so ppl know, when you turn the steering wheel when the car is parked, it can fuck up the power steering pump and other parts. If people think otherwise, just do it then and see lol
It won't do anything to any power steering components, the power steering pump has a return valve which engages when the pressure is too high, such as when you turn the wheel all the way til it stops, you then hear the pump whining, which is the return valve returning some pressure back into the power steering reservoir. The only thing you will do is create flat spots on your tires if you turn the steering wheel all the way back and fourth like 20 times while the car is parked.
I have a gray one it doesnt have a spoiler
you need to some of the newer ones
@markkjay i even saw some of the same parts from in my old 1987 accord lol
Price Rite Hyde Park
@TJC450 Well yeah you like Buick
@hrpt07 yep, ur right, it is just like grinding medal against each other! take it slow lol. also, people don't know this, but doing " rolling shifts " are bad 2.
This thing is nothing more then a honda accord because the engine and interior electronics are the same guts minus the lcd screen. All the guts are backwards compatible to other honda car and truck line up. This thing is really nice suv plateform but she needs a deeping cleaning to get the stains out. The J series engines in these suv are little power houses in the civic plate form if any of you do complete powertrain swaps.
Try not to move the camera soo quick at times,makes one dizzy!! Thanks
2003 Lexus RX.😊
Well, if you think about it, sad because they aren’t worth much with the miles but awesome because that means they last long!👍
@RolfRoyce25 your correct CR-V appoldhes mi fault
can someone do business with you?
@Gangster3811 i agree with you
Aux???!
Dude you shouldn't be turning the steering wheel like that when the car is stopped.
I bought my wife a 2001 MDX but we sold it in 2015.
love it! oh, but then there's the interior. That I don't like.
Family of 4, Lexus rx. Family of 5, Acura mdx. Family of 5+ infinity qx56
Sundaye what's funny is my mom's side of the family has always purchased mdx cars and my dads side has always purchased qx56s
the qx56 has turned into the 70K contractors pickup because of the abuse it's put through xD
1:06
70% Honda Odyssey
where is the aux input/output?
Maximus Trolleus it has a 6 cd changer under the driver seat
Maximus Trolleus You can install an aftermarket radio in it.
Green And Orange Line Productions no you cant. the radio os the main thing that runs the car. at lease i cant in my 2004
@thecarexpert18 Yeah same!
Thank you for the wayyy too loud audio im gonna find a good video now

My Ford sierra does all that too, but better.
The car is nice but mine has gear fault
Mine just hit 112
The dash looks close to my 01 accord...LOL
@hrpt07
And you are excited about this?! It is one of the worst reviewed cars of the year (the CR-Z)
Acura needs to stop making station wagons and start making SUVs again.
Can't even hear the engine with all the traffic noise
I need
@austinman1995 davewhodavedunn speaks the truth, power steering is force crap to move and is hard on it, I don't have all the tech details but I know it to be a fact.
5:40 = scary bug
hi
my mothers has 175,000 miles on it (2002)
Stop and Shop Roslindale.

I wasn't impressed by the interior for some reason.
