[@summushieremiasclarkson4700]

I agree with Honda on the decision to stick with timing belts in the American market especially, where people just don't do maintenance. The main things that fail on most engines are: Timing components, cooling systems (especially the water pump) and tensioners/pulleys. Forcing this into the maintenance schedule makes these cars a lot more reliable. Take BMWs for instance, if they had timing belts then BMW -ricers- customers would be forced to replace all of these, which are the most common failure points on drivetrains anyway. But then you'd have reliable BMWs, and that would be ridiculous. This is besides other advantages, including not having to worry about guide lubrication and wear, chain stretching, excessive chain noise and so on. Honda V6s are extremely smooth and refined for this exact reason.

[@SnipesXxX]

Timing chains are superior in every way. They last the life of the engine(200k+ miles with proper oil changes) unless there is a defect in the components. Most people are not going to change that timing belt when it's supposed to be, because it costs hundreds to replace if you don't do it yourself. I avoid any car that has a timing belt.

[@mrdave777]

Would the original comment elaborate more on the BMW comment? Thx

[@summushieremiasclarkson4700]

@@mrdave777 OK, in the case of most BMWs, the drivetrains are actually pretty solid. But Brad thinks his "ultimate driving machine" needs no maintenance, and BMW is happy to support his delusions, with absolutely ludicrous extended service intervals (18000 mi oil changes wtf). Typical failure points on most BMWs include the cooling system, lubrication gaskets and seals. My E60 545i for example, is famous for valve stem seals failing, along with other gaskets, not to mention thermostat and water pump. But it uses a timing chain, so no one bothers to fix these before they blow up. Maintain it like a toyota, and sure it'll be more expensive to maintain, but it'll last a heck of a long time, more than most people keep their cars. Also, avoid, avoid avoid Turbo BMWs that are not inline 6 engines, and even then do your research. The current crop of B58 engines seem to be rock solid, for instance.

[@summushieremiasclarkson4700]

@@SnipesXxX Read my comment more carefully. I never said timing chains aren't superior, but belts are cheap and easy to replace, and are a lot quieter and smoother. Most importantly, when you replace the belt, it makes it very easy to do all associated failure points on an engine except maybe valve adjustments (in the case of Honda engines). Not to mention, people have a belief that chains are lifetime. Yes, but the plastic guides are absolutely not. Usually they don't fail outright, but you will notice worse fuel economy due to loosening timing over the life of the vehicle.

I love the newer MDXs. I bought a used 2005 in 2015. It had 115k and I paid $10k cash. It was a great car but because of its size (was super tall and felt like it leaned when I drove) I didn't drive it as much as I had initially planned. After 2 years and 8k mi, I sold it to my dad and grabbed a 2013 Accord. Dad still has it and at 205k mi it's still going strong, and for pushing 20 it still looks great. I am hoping to grab a newer used model. The newer ones aren't as monstrous as the older ones and I feel I would use it more if it's not so intimidating to drive.

Say what you want about timing belts, but they are cheaper to change than a timing chain set: You have the timing chain, guides, tensioners, cam sprocket and cam phasers that all need to be changed if a timing chain gets stretched. Just ask anyone with a Honda Earthdreams 2.4L that has the cold start timing chain death rattle. Happened to my Accord with only 83K well maintained miles on it.

[@LoveLikeaHurricane]

Depends on the engine and oil I suppose . On my s2000 no issues timing chain related. But the car has been known to have timing chain tensioner issues. However there is a hypothesis that it has to do with oil quality as the owners who use regular Mobil 1 seems to have the most issues. I use Amsoil and no issues. So with timing belt you do have to change about every 7 years regardless of miles just for safety. That’s about 1000-1200$ every 7 years. How much is a timing chain job?

[@summushieremiasclarkson4700]

@@jhorton4329 Never understood the point of doing that. Exactly who is that supposed to impress? Women? Majority of them have no clue what type s means. I had a similar story with both my Acura TL (which had an "A-spec" badge, though I alter found out it was actually A-spec), and my BMW 545i with "M" badging all over it.

[@kayp4563]

U really think just the badge made the car 25k more than the base model 🤣

[@PWCDN]

@@jhorton4329 yeah I do that with my laptop, I slap an apple sticker on it and wear turtlenecks everywhere. What a thrilling experience.

No one is actually paying this, as that's just sticker price. I paid $67K for mine about 9 months ago...

I've been driving various Honda V6 engines since 05 . ( Pilot/Odyssey ) . Never had a T Belt or engine issue . My oldest 16 Pilot has 193K on it .

[@Rhymezny]

Did you ever change T belt on them ?

[@generictoast7678]

im not a thief but i don't think people would wanna steal a medicore speed SUV. the mpg and speed is already bad, doesn't make sense. maybe just put 1 security rod instead of locking it down like fort nox

[@mrgurulittle7000]

MDX is Acura’s bread and butter and it’s one of the best sellers. I would prefer the Infiniti QX60 because it’s more luxurious, but the Acura is good value.

[@danmar007]

I found the key to my ex's 1993 Civic. Because I'm curious, I tried it in my 2005 Civic. It works! :-) There's a very small difference between the keys, but apparently it's not enough to make it unusable.

[@acenewholland564]

Only 3L? I remember they had 3.7L in the older ones. Well I hope it will be as reliable as it was back in the day

[@tankmango757]

Prob the lightest Honda V6 engine if it's a 3.0 J Series

[@melissasmess2773]

352 horsepower out of a 3.0L 🧐

[@chrislj2890]

That's a 3.0L Turbo V6 (355 HP) but they also still have the 3.5L V6 (290 HP) that they've had for years. I have the 3.5L in my 2014 Crosstour and it's plenty powerful for me, and I would not own a turbo.

[@tankmango757]

@@chrislj2890 sheesh imagine that on the new Acura sedans

[@BennyC-qg6rd]

I have a question. If the MDX is brand new, with all its technology, why is Scotty looking at it? Did something break already?

[@wydopnthrtl]

No he's just an influencer and given a car for free. So he makes vids

[@fandean3330]

Will never buy a Honda or Acura product after seeing the videos of Acura of Troy and how bad Acura/honda customer support is.

lol you think Honda/Acura owns the dealerships? How old are you?

[@jamesw7710]

I have a 2012 advanced technology MDX. I love the thing although that was the year they had the class action lawsuit for all the oil leaks in the piston rings With the quality of Honda going downhill I wonder if these will have the same issues that the rest of the fleet is having

[@linkzz00]

I work on Honda - I was very happy they put a double wishbone suspension again (air suspension too!) It is a rocket for what it is - for the older crowd: it accelerates like an 06 6-speed v6 did as an suv 👀

[@pollentree]

I believe MDX Type S and RDX have timing chains ❤

[@thakiddmistic7610]

MDX still has a timing belt sadly

[@basbass429]

Hej Scotty, that honda is probably better than any toyota/lexus 🙂

[@allergictoglobalists]

Hahahahaha😂

[@julianp.2840]

I love my Type-S MDX - It has some flaws for sure but overall it's so good.

[@kane5445]

What flaws ?

[@livefreevinnie]

Too many electronics meaning too many microchips that has potential to break.

[@JN-un2xz]

Tell me one single new car that doesn’t have too many sensors, they all do

[@joeln0671]

Do they use the same engine and transmission in the new 2024 Honda Pilot?

[@bradstonesifer3398]

Nope... the pilot is nowhere close to being on this level.

[@harrybosch8972]

Great car, but after 25k or so, you will feel every bump on the road very rough on the road. also loses value very quickly unlike the Lexus. But very cool and drives well on clean roads.

[@termainefields3342]

Not true. Acura has the highest resale value in 2024.

[@Andy44Andy]

Hate rubber timing belt….as well as super soft bumpy struts that goes bad within 40k or so.

[@dorkbear]

Jiminy Christmas, $75K is ridiculous.

[@Narco.Trafficante]

Thats why you dont buy the Type S trim level new, unless you're feeling generous.

[@bradstonesifer3398]

Got mine for $67K. Bought a ‘23 model last year when the ‘24s first came out. If you compare what else you can get for $67K, this becomes a no brainer

Should be locking up the actual wheels than the steering wheel

I currently own a 2022 MDX and I have only owned Acura/Honda vehicles my whole life and love them all. The MDX is very unique, agile, comfortable, quick, handling is excellent and gas is not bad. I love my MDX.
