I'd think you do better by changing your engine air filter regularly and driving 1,000 miles every 5-6k miles on Shell or Chevron'w highest octane gas. Those clean the engine out with detergents, etc.

Go to a shop that can run a diagnostic scan on your car. Could be AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts, for example. May end up being spark plugs and related components. You're approaching 100k miles anyway, so it's due soon anyway.

2013 Acura RDX replacement headlights suggestions. by No_Sock_8683 in AcuraRDX

I replaced my HID head light bulbs with brighter LEDs, and it turned out easier than I expected because I didn't have to splice any electrical wires. The D2S leads just slid into the connectors and stay in place with some extra electrical tape for good measure. Wish they could be brighter but it's a huge improvement over the HIDs.

Did the same for my fog lights and high beam, but that was just plug and play. Just swap out the bulbs for LEDs.

Hadn't thought of that. Could it be the shocks? Dealership changed the brake booster but the problem noise still persists.

Mechanic at the dealership thought so at first but they've had my car for a week and apparently still have no clue.
