I don't have an RSX but I'm guessing it's due to air pressure. Do you have the same problem when any of windows in the car are open when you shut the door?

Don't want to tell you how to suck eggs, but as well as the air pressure mentioned in previous posts, if this is the first new Honda you have owned, generally they require a fair slam to shut the doors until the seals have softened up a bit...you'll be glad when it's got a few miles on it and it doesn't have air/dust leaks!

LOL. The full expression is "don't teach your grandmother how to suck eggs". I have no idea of the origin, but it means don't tell people how to do something they are well-versed in. So apparently all grandmothers are egg-sucking experts, go figure! Maybe it's an Australian thing. So I just meant that I hope in not stating the obvious, but the door seals on new cars are usually tight to start with.
