Default Post your RSX problems

I just bought an RSX-S. I want to know any problems (engine, trans, interior, exterior....anything out of the blue) you guys have had, so I can keep a heads up on mine.

Just go to clubrsx.com and type in TSB under the search function. The whole list should be there. Good luck...late.

Ok to solve that problem here is what you do.. BUY NEW BRAKE PADS!!!.. squeek is gone.. As for the Bass in the bose speaker, there was never any to begin with, just a small thump.. I took mine out and never noticed the difference,

As for problems here is what is bad so far for me:
-2nd gear notch
-blown motor mount
-cracked leather

And that is it. Good luck.
