I have an 07 Mdx with 260k miles and just invested $1000 for all new brakes parts, new suspension. Timing belt belt 10k miles ago. Its ready to go another 100k easy! Love this machine

[@ayushmalpeddi2793]

Only 1K?!? No way that's possible lol.

[@SlikLizrd]

My Sweet Wife was just gifted a 2007 Acura MDX, with the 300-HP V-6 engine, and it only has 112,000 miles on the clock. My job is to make it perform as good as new for another 10 years. Piece of cake !!

[@mrgold3591]

Watch out for transmission fluid mixing with the coolant in the radiator and power drain from the bluetooth module in the rear of the center console. Pretty solid vehicle that mostly requires scheduled maintenance.

[@SlikLizrd]

@@mrgold3591 Thanks for the heads-up !! I may by-pass the radiator trans cooler and install the B&M stacked-plate type cooler that has worked so well on the famous 95 MERC for the last several years. I read about the battery drain, so I unplugged the Bluetooth gizmo.

[@TheCobruhAlienat0r]

When they were comparing the ride quality, you also have to consider that the 2017 is obviously brand new while the 07' is 10 years old AND has almost 150k miles on it. Unless the suspension was replaced with new parts recently then not a fair comparison.

[@jriley1992]

It's hard for me to believe 2007 was 10 years ago.

[@jasonn2284]

I own a 2008 and 2017 mdx. Both wife and I drive it. The 2008 still looks better on the exterior but the 2017 drives better. In my opinion the 2008 is better. The old one has more style, bang for buck, towing capacity, and interior design.

[@NTIMD8]

Love your videos guys. I just picked up a very clean 2007 MDX for winter duty and had a hard time believing it did 0-60 as slow as yours in your video as it felt much faster to me. So today I used my V-box and tested my 2007 that has 160k miles on the clock. I did three 0-60mph runs one after another and they were 7.58 seconds, 7.52 second and another 7.52 seconds so something was not right with the one you were testing. Just thought I would add that input. :)

[@Audiman0aha]

Where do you live? There testing in bolder, Im in Colorado springs and just bought a clean one owner 2007 mdx today. I will do some of my own testing to see if my times line up with yours or theres… stay tuned!

@@NTIMD8 Sounds good, My wife took the car to Idaho for the week. When she gets back I'll let you know what I see at 6000ft above sea level. :P

[@Audiman0aha]

@@NTIMD8 ok my wife got back from Idaho today with the MDX, so with premium fuel here in Colorado springs @ 5800 ft I did three 0-60 runs and averaged 9.33 0-60 times. So the tfl video is correct, at this altitude that's what they run lol

[@NTIMD8]

m4N5L4y3R Interesting. I didn’t think it would make almost a 2 second difference 0-60. I figured more like 0.5 seconds. So in the video they ran 7.78 seconds in the newer one. Does that mean it would run 5.8 seconds 0-60 here at sea level? lol

[@evamaynard3021]

I loved this review! I have an acura 2008 mdx and was curious about how it holds up v newer one and other vehicles, and I think I made a good decision. I LOVE my 2008 MDX!

[@nopenope1965]

Love my 2008 except having trouble with Bluetooth. Had a sensor in the back go hot. But as far as driving and reliability I love it. My first was a 2003 it was hard to let go gave it to a family member. But I will hold on to this one for as long as it'll take me for a drive.

[@BradenWiseman]

I own an 07 and my mom drives a 14, I drive each on a daily basis and have to say that the 07 with the heavier steering and a strong vtech engagement is a much better car

[@Muddyspartan]

Mom's got a 2008 MDX its awesome! Its fun to drive and very utilitarian. Kind of a gas guzzler and really bouncy at times, but overall we love it! Oddly enough when I went to the LA auto show about 3 years ago before the new MDX, I remember thinking "Ours is just as good". Its interesting to see how this newer MDX drives.

[@24bergman]

I've actually owned both of those exact cars 2007, currently a 2017 with a 2011 with 130,000 miles thrown between them. You pretty much nailed it. Personally I think the 2011 was their best model because it was mated to the 6 speed not the 5 or the 9. But I actually get 29 mpg with the 2017 when on the hwy when three cylinders are idle. So that's the show stopper. All amazing trucks

[@IPGAuto]

Heard the 6-speed were the downfall of that gen MDX, and everyone advises to get the 5-speed

[@UnrealOG137]

2010 and up have the 6 speed.

[@fortunatedad7695]

I have a 2010 with a 6 speed and it's great. Eventually had to get a software update because it was downshifting hard going down to 3rd gear but after the update, it's a thing of beauty.

[@the-boring-car-guy]

This is what's good, just like old TfL, best video you guys have made in ages

[@joeray795]

As the proud owner of a 2008 MDX, i truly appreciated this video. I have absolutely loved this vehicle and still find it fun to drive after 140k miles. in fact, i bought a 2009 MDX last year for one daughter and am giving the other one mine this fall. Which brings me to my question: Do you ever create pieces that give your suggestions for cars for teens, older parents, etc? A mash up of used SUV's you rec for teens would be interesting. You guys are goobers (me too) and i really enjoy your work.

[@mariawaugh-clayton7978]

Good Suggestion. I'd be afraid to give my MDX to my girl. It's too fast and she is scared. I'll give her the Chevy Cruze which I hate. It's new but slow and cuts off everytime you stop. For Heavens sake. No fun whatsoever. Takes all the fun out of driving but good for teens.

It's nice, but after researching all the problems it has with that 9-speed transmission, infotainment and other crap, it sealed the deal on keeping the '09. Had the front struts replaced and it feels like a new car again! Scheduled for it's 100k timing belt maintenance and I'll be set for another 50k - 100k

I just recently bought my wife the 2007 MDX with 117,000 miles on it for Around 15K. It has the technology package on it and with 3 kids it has the DVD system installed also and we thought that was a delight to have. For being 10 years old you really can't tell just by looking at it, it's a great car and my wife feels very safe driving it around and loves that 300hp when she punches the pedal. Thanks for the awesome review, I'm even happier we bought they one we did because it was very well taken care of and will last is many years of fun around town lugging all the kids to all the places they need to go.

[@mestizzo]

Thank you for doing this, guys. I've never owned an Acura. As a (lifetime) college student all I could ever afford was a used Honda Civic (I've owned three), and I've always loved their integrity, longevity and reliability (very important things when you live like a college student). Having experienced nothing but goodness from Honda, I've always dreamed of owning an Acura some day. Particularly the TL or the MDX (I know, two completely different sections of the car industry), but I've always looked at the older models just, in my opinion, looking better, and having that sporty and fun attitude that characterized Acura. I feel they've lost that somewhere, for example, the moment they dropped TL to make a TLX. It is just too plain. Maybe not vanilla plain, but it's like French vanilla; still ordinary, but you could argue it's better. Can you guys do a TLX vs TL video, please?

[@brianmcg321]

Just bought a 2007. It has an automatic tailgate.

[@matthewgallagher7218]

KevanRay my 2007 has the Sport and entertainment package. This includes the power lift gate. It can be lifted from inside the car with a push of a button or outside the car using the key fob. Closing it uses those methods or a button on the tailgate. And yes my MDX has heated seats front and back. Also has the rear DVD player

I have both a 11 MDX Adv+Ent with +150,000 miles and 19 MDX Adv Sport Hybrid with +32,000 miles. Both are great vehicles and provide different advantages and disadvantages depending on needs. Hard pick a favorite between them because it is like picking a favorite child.

[@rogerthat24]

I have a 2008 MDX and love it! I think the lack of panoramic sunroof is due to their rear seat entertainment system, when optioned, being on the roof instead of in the headrests or center console.

[@SachinKokane]

Hv a 2007 MDX 1. It’s heavy, so feels little uneasy to maneuver especially during turns 2. Maintainance cost is higher especially the shocks if you own Sports model ($850 a shock 😬) 3. The front grille color film coating tends to wear out, which worsens the look. 4. You wont get more than 13 MPG in a city But it is a class and definitely a luxurious car, a notch above similar cars during that era...

[@mariawaugh-clayton7978]

I'll take my 13 mpg and enjoy. I like old cars and don't mind spending the money.

[@jramirez31890]

I too like the older MDX because of the sporty look and the actual exhaust tips

[@Gilbertmk2]

The older mdx had a power closing hatch option.

[@caliboyrob]

yeah they tested the non tech package mdx

[@benb2358]

We have an '07 MDX, thing is a tank with about 164,000 miles and very few issues. It's getting to be a bit old now and is starting to develops issues ( we've stopped taking it on long trips after it broke down 108 miles from home ). But it's still a daily driver and is still going strong. Hoping to get another MDX as our next SUV.

[@dennisknight3840]

I have a 2017 MDX as a loaner right now. I have an 08 model, but here is where I like the old over the new: 1. Once I got in, I could tell that the 17 is less spacious than the old. 2. The visibility is less due to the huge headrest Acura decided to put in. 3. Worthless computer technology - if you drift off into the next lane, the steering brings you back center, but drifts you back over again. Very weird! 4. The whole center touchscreen is boring. Only blue, black & white colors & you have to control EVERYTHING mostly in the center screen. You have to lean in now to control it instead of the older models coming with the closer dials to your body. 5. Seats are nice, but it feels like their less plush. 6. I'm not a fan of the push button transmission. I wonder how much it'll cost to get THAT fixed! 7. Everything seems more computerized. Appears to be that Acura will be the ONLY place that you could go to repairs for. 8. The outer body looks beautiful, but I feel like Acura put more hard work into the older models perfectly.

[@klein2042]

Somehow the 07-09 is more modern looking than the 17

[@efthimios]

Great review we still have our 2007 looks like that with sport package 155k mikes it's a reliable as a tank defonetly will get a new one eventually

[@efthimios]

Zachary Strain absolutely zero!!! The only issue I had was the magnetic shocks, which I paid for replacing but now Acura sent a letter that they will reimburse you if under 100k miles or so? So my wife still loves driving it I'm just gonna keep putting off replacing with a used 2017 eventually! I buy them two years old certified will he 40k or less by then - great vehicle overall. I'm thinking about selling my 2011 high maintmence 335 for a 2014 TL shawd too- great oversll sport sedan even if not as fast as competitors -rock solid reliability

[@rightfight100]

If you can, the 6 speed manual TL's with SH-AWD is a really nice under-rated car and is super fun to drive on back roads! My next goal is to find a 07-08 Type S since I currently own a 05 :)

[@Maserati7200]

My family had both the 2010 and 2015 MDX. I liked the 2010 way better. Had the J37 Engine (3.7 L V6) and 300 HP. Styling was aggressive and good looking, with prominent exhausts. They kinda pussified the 3rd gen MDX. Softer, blobbier, and 10 less horsepower with a smaller engine (3.5 L). Plus they hid the exhaust pipes.

[@rngrscott]

It's great seeing comparisons of vehicles, not only in their respective classes, but one that highlights the updates (if any) aswell. As a everyday consumer, this is important to know and understand. Toyota, for instance, does very few updates. If a 2014 is the same chassis and performance as it is today, why buy the newest one? Or visa versa? Great videos.

[@stephen3164]

We bought the '17 model. Push button takes a day to get used to but then you wonder why other cars still use the ancient lever to move. Also sport mode plus changing dynamic control to sport and the steering firms up and you can flip off shifts with the paddles. We've used it for 7 passenger as well as big cargo - ride is very comfortable and it does everything you need. The lower screen does suffer from some sun glare, depending on position of sun.

I completely agree . The 2007 looks nicer than the 2017.

[@Reno2324]

I have no idea why a lot of reviewers don't like the push button transmission. I have a 2017 Mdx elite awd in Canada. Just love it... its so simple to use, frees a lot of space and looks high tech. I love the dual screens too. The way I've come down to understand this is that maybe it needs to be driven everyday for it to be appreciated, which is not the case with car reviewers. It's been 2 months now since I bought mine and I love it every time I get to drive it. Now another thing to mention is maybe I'm wrong since I own a 2010 Dodge Ram 3500 Cummins Turbodiesel that have been driving since 2013 (and still do, due to type of work) and I have no idea how a luxury SUV(CUV) is suppose to feel.

[@Daddyj2007]

yall should've compared the 2010-13 to the 17 considering that was the better version of the second gen, and having owned a 11 mdx I also drove the newer one (I think it was a 14 or 15) the older ones have a more sure footed drive and felt bigger inside compared to the new techy ones but that's just my opinion

[@joeaverager]

Depends - I find that in my part of the country - with the sun overhead its HOT with the sunroof open or the sunroof cover open - at certain times of day. I'd love to have a VW-esque panoramic sunroof if the covers were effect at keeping the sun out during the mid-day hours. Last night we did some shopping and then went home the long way through the country with the windows down and the sunroof open and the stereo playing nice tunes. Just on the edge of being too cool.

[@PaulReedy]

Nice video guys! We used to have a 2005, now we have a 2008. The 2008 has a motorized hatch, which I guess the 07 did not according to this video. One thing I think Acura really did wrong between the 2005 and 2008 is the human interface design. The 2005 had a touch screen, while the newer models have a stupid joystick that you have to rotate to select letters and numbers, then push, and sometimes you have to move it left/right/up/down... awful! The 2008 did have a shade for the video screen, which the 2005 desperately needed. Trying to backup with the sun shining on the screen made it useless. The 05 got about 2 mpg better than the 08. The AWD system on this works great, I've not spun the front tires from any intersection, whether wet or dry.

I really like the post refresh second generation, and I like the improvements they made for 2017, but certainly wouldn't be at the top of my consideration list for a luxury crossover.

GOOD JOB !

[@mrnoname6327]

Lol, I like how he complained about not having a shifter...unless it's a true manual transmission you don't need a shifter. I grew up on manual transmissions and I am definitely okay with the shifter being out of the way. I have a feeling traditional shifters will be gone before too long. I guess the moral of this video is, don't have two people with old school mindsets without the ability to learn new things test new tech lol.

I just got an 07 and it was actually a decent used car deal and it has only 136k miles.

[@williams2652]

I had a 2002, 2012 and now a 2019 and the 2019 is so superior to the MDX's before.

The new ZF 9spd transmission is a no go. We owned a vehicle with it. Never again. Look at the new upper trim Honda Pilot or Jeep Cherokee. The transmission is a common complaint. The older Acura is easily the better buy.

I have an 09 mdx and I love it.

[@zachharwood9806]

With the old mdx, you can also shift manually, which makes it a bit quicker off the line.

[@alexgdaq8146]

Look up Chuck missler Gene Kim n Robert breaker on KZbin

Enjoying the 10 year comparison...question on longevity of the newer MDX

[@junghshin]

Fun review! Can you review old rdx (turbo) vs new rdx (v6)?

[@moose64]

Do you think a 10 year old with 150K miles would lose some HP making the 0-60 a tad slower?

[@TFLcar]

+todd baker yes of course.

[@urbanguyill]

todd baker what was the 0 to 60 of the 2007 mdx 10 years ago?

[@moose64]

2007 Acura MDX 0-60 mph 8.0 | Quarter mile 16.2. That's for the non sport.

[@moose64]

That'll make a difference. @ 0.1s for every 100lb drop.

[@Anthony-fv9ic]

its 150.000 miles which comes to 241.000 KM < they are great

[@chasedrgc1223]

Would love to see an '07 RX vs '17 RX.

Jet black custom 2013 Acura MDX Advanced. Identical to the ones in Captain America! But even more epic! I named him ONYX 11 years, and half my life of dreaming, it is even better that I could ever imagine! Doing some epic modifications and custom work in the coming years! I’ve done a few awesome ones 6 months in. Completely restored the interior and exterior, including the rust! And put around 300 hours of hard work into the truck! I did the best that I could with my tools and a low college student budget. I don’t own many tools, because I have nowhere to store them. I had mechanically refurbished the engine, transmission, catalytic converter, power steering, and more to list. I baby the truck! I will insure will last it until I am 30. But life happens, and nothing is guaranteed. I learned that with my beloved old 2004 MDX Tech. (Maximus). A computer virus from a 2006 navigation system(Trojan horse) very very unfortunately killed all of the computing units! It killed Maximus. I cried privately for weeks! 7 years (age 14-21), 220,000 miles, many fun and sad experience later, road trips, and memories. Over 500 hours of repairs work and hot rodding! That truck was my life! I loved Maximus more than any (romantic) relationship that I’ve been in through my youth. People can be shallow. Maximus was not only my vehicle, but my passion. Still sitting in my driveway for 6 months. R.I.P old flame. 🔥
