I have a small dent in the same spot as well. I notice as I turn to exit the vehicle my left elbow hits the seat in that exact spot. I think this is what might be the cause of the dimple, at least in my case.

Time will tell how the 1.5 turbo holds up in the long run. If pushed hard on a daily basis I suppose the outcome will be problematic, this is true for a lot of platforms out there. As for Scotty Kilmer while I think he has a good grip on the automotive repair field, many of his posts are...

OK good to know. I now have to find a shift knob I like that won't burn my hand.

I thought that you need to have access to the nut below the knob to back it off and remove the knob. also need to tighten up the nut against the knob to index the new knob

I wanted to drop the shifter boot on my car to possibly change the knob for on which won't freeze or burn my hand in weather extremes. Last summer was a burn my hand learning experience and I actually put a leather glove over the shifter knob on very hot sunny days. I tried to pry the boot...

Thanks good to know

I have not seen the problem reappear since the part was changed out

Which dealership in NJ?

Most likely the push button on the hatch itself is frozen. The telltale sign is that the button does not actually depress when you push it. I had this same problem and the dealer changed the button assembly on the hatch. The key fob unlocks the lock so that you can open the hatch by pressing the...

BKK JACK , Did Modern Spare honor your refund request? I went to my Acura dealer yesterday. They told me the spare tire kit will ship in April. As they asked what trim level Integra I had, I guess that there is more than one size spare tire available. At this point I think I would rather...

For all the reviews saying this is the slickest manual trans out there I find the shifting is often pretty crunchy. Especially noticeable when the trans is cold. At times it shifts like butter once its been driven a while, other times not so much. Has me scratching my head and wondering. Where...

Has anyone actually gotten the spare tire kit? Either thru the dealer or PRL motorsports? I ordered 5 months ago thru PRL and I am still waiting. I call once in a while but it's still on backorder with them.

I had this exact problem. The button freezes and will not depress in freezing weather. The dealer replaced the button on the hatch and it seems fine now.

Wow I have been following your dilemma. I think it's time for Acura to step up and give you a new replacement vehicle. The lemon law is not what you should have to invoke with an Acura. You buy new to avoid this type of aggravation. Are you in touch with the Acura headquarters?

Just to clarify I don't have any problem shifting into second gear. There is however a normal acceleration lag when you shift and its at this point where an aggressive driver runs up on your tail. When it comes to people with a heavy foot They follow too close to begin with and then almost rear...

Lunchbox thanks for your suggestion and comments. Do you mean to shift at 4000-4500 rpm or rev up to that between the shifts> I don't slip the clutch between gears and Didn't think anyone else did this either. My comfort level for general driving is shifting at around 3000 rpm, I am retired...

I had read somewhere in this forum that the stout rear mount makes the low rpms a bit harsh, do you find this to be the case?

I have experienced numerous scary moments when being first in line at a red light. When the light turns green I take off and shift to 2nd gear at around 3000rpm. There is always a slight lag in acceleration from first to second gear, this is a normal occurrence for me in a standard shift...

No tint added for me

I have the type A with tech and I believe the rear defogger is slow to clear the window. While the mirrors clear fast the back glass seems to take a solid 15 minuets to clear. Are others finding about the same time frame or is mine not up to spec?
