Service Details
At Hinsdale Automotive, our technicians are not just mechanics; we are Acura experts and are as knowledgeable about Acura vehicles as the dealerships. With our understanding of the latest Acura technology and features, we can provide top-notch care for your vehicle, whether it’s an oil change or an engine replacement. If you reside in Littleton, we would love for you to rely on us to keep your vehicle running at peak performance.
If any warning lights appear on your Acura vehicle's dashboard, you should visit an auto repair shop as soon as possible, ideally within the next 600 miles. Typically, you should change your motor oil and filter at least once a year, which could be causing the issue. At Hinsdale Automotive, we can accurately determine when you need maintenance so you don’t drive too long without replacing oil and fluids.
The brake pads on your Acura vehicle are designed with wear indicators to create a squealing noise when the brakes are almost worn out. This noise will begin when approximately 2 mm of brake pad friction remains, indicating that the brake pads must be replaced. If you hear this noise, replace your brake pads as soon as possible. You might hear the noise even when not pushing the brake pedal.
The Acura RDX 2013-2018 models are known for developing suspension noise over time, particularly in the rear. The first-generation RDX (2007-2012) with the turbocharged 2.3L engine is known for turbocharger problems, including oil leaks and failure. In some Acura MDX early models from 2001 to 2006, there have been reports of transmission problems such as rough shifting, slipping, and complete failure. These issues range in severity but should all be addressed as soon as possible.

Pe-Purchase Inspection
Buying a used car is a huge decision; it also makes most people nervous since there is no way to know for sure how a vehicle was treated before you. We always offer customers the option to bring a potential purchase down to the shop so we can give it a quick once-over. As part of our pre-purchase inspection, we will look at the most common trouble areas on a car and verify that these issues won't be causing you any trouble once you take ownership.
