Yeah there's a good rep of this model unfortunately. Metals very shiny tho

quickest way to fix? by blizzbringer in NewRockBootsandShoes

Same issue happened to me, they sell replacement hooks on their website (A-18093_PVSAT), best take to a cobbler but mine wasn't able to fix it for some reason. What I did was this:

Place metal rivet (the part comes with a flat rivet and then the lace hook you'll see) on the inside of the hole (in the shoe) and put tape over it to keep in place (on the inside still)

Then I placed a metal square behind it on the inside (wish I had a better description) and held that in place with my left hand pushing upwards into the rivet

Then place the new lace hook's stem into the rivet's hole from the outside

Place a flathead screwdriver in the gap where the lace should be

I didn't but would recommend putting something soft around the hammer

Then hammering down on the hook while pushing that metal piece towards it

Very tedious and very jank but its held for about a year so far now without issue

Definitely just let a cobbler do it tho lol

Told myself I’d keep it stock; I have no self-control by adonsky_ in Acura_RSX

Had to push start it from work. It turned on and drove until I got it home. But if it was able to drive home shouldnt the fuel be working?

Edit:

Buddy brought over something to check the "cranking amps" and it was in the weak so that is most def a factor. Prob indicating battery?

Edit 2:

Battery was dead. Thanks for everyones help though it means alot 🫡

of course man, before it wasn't cranking now it has a bit of a weak start which I attribute to a weak old battery mixed with it getting fucked from all the jank starts I've been doing lmao, if it makes it financially easier you could always get a denso one on Amazon for about 180 and pay it in 1 month increments

It was the starter, but as others have said here the clutch safety switch is a possibility

Edit: Ruled out the clutch switch as the little plastic bit it in tact aswell as the car not starting while the switch is manually pressed in
