2003 Acura MDX Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$29.99 USD
Unit price
The 2003 Acura MDX service and repair manual is matched to this exact year, engine and trim, so every specification and sequence is the one that applies to your vehicle rather than a generic MDX.
Engine
- 3.5L V6 — 3471cc (212 cu in), SOHC, naturally aspirated, gas
Trims
- Touring Sport Utility 4-Door
- Base Sport Utility 4-Door
Known issues on the 2003 MDX. Five recalls are on federal record for this model year: a passenger frontal air bag inflator whose explosion may send sharp metal fragments at the driver or other occupants, a driver frontal air bag inflator with the same explosion and fragment risk, a second passenger frontal air bag inflator that may rupture and strike occupants with metal fragments, an air bag system fault in which electrical noise causes a component in the air bag control module to fail and the front air bags to deploy inadvertently, and a replacement accelerator pedal assembly that may bind so the engine does not quickly return to idle. Owners have filed 259 complaints for this year, and 160 technical service bulletins are on record. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From an SRS control-module fault to a hard-to-trace wiring problem, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2003 MDX.
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling specific 2003 Acura 3.2CL, 2013-2016 ILX, 2013-2014 ILX Hybrid, 2003-2006 MDX, 2007-2016 RDX, 2002-2003 3.2TL, 2004-2006, and 2009-2014 TL, 2010-2013 ZDX and 2001-2007 and 2009 Honda Accord, 2001-2005 Civic, 2003-2005 Civic Hybrid, 2001-2005 Civic GX NGV, 2002-2007 and 2010-2011 CR-V, 2003-2011 Element, 2007 Fit, 2002-2004 Odyssey, 2003-2008 Pilot, and 2006-2014 Ridgeline vehicles. The affected vehicles received a replacement driver air bag inflator as part of a previous Takata inflator recall remedy or a replacement driver air bag module containing the same inflator type as a service part. Due to a manufacturing error, in the event of a crash
Consequence

Honda is recalling certain model year 2003 and 2004 Pilot and Odyssey and 2003 through 2006 Acura MDX passenger vehicles manufactured from November 26, 2001, through August 30, 2006. The interlock lever of the ignition switch may deform, which can allow the interlock function of a vehicle with an automatic transmission to be defeated.
Consequence
Removal of the ignition key when the gear selector of a vehicle with an automatic transmission has not been shifted to the park position can allow the vehicle to roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
