Re: What suv to get?

Do the RDXs have the same issue with the trans and the MDX's? Also what years RDX should I look at?

Never been a huge fan of the looks of the lexus, but could consider I know they have great reliability.

Also I really dig the looks of the new Tahoe. We seen a Tahoe XL at t-ball today sitting on some black 22s and it looked really nice. Usually you can throw a set of rims on something though and it will always look nice.

Don't believe so, that was a generational issue with almost all the 5 speed auto's they attached to their V6's in the late '90's and early 2000's. Believe all the newer trannies are a newer model/generation AFAIK. Thus I believe the RDX's don't have those issues.

Our MDX, my bro's MDX, and my other bro's TL all had their transmissions replaced(including torque converters) by Acura, two for free, and one was discounted 50% off. All right around the 100k mile mark.

The shuddering issue you are having in yours is possibly the torque converter.

Yeah its super weird the shuddering only happens at like 1400 rpm and like its missing going into gear. You have to either smash the gas or get out of it to stop.

But your probably correct its the torque converter
