2005 Acura MDX Overheating

Scotty,

Thanks for all your time in helping people with their vehicles.  I'm far from being a mechanic but I find your videos very enlightening.

 

My son has a 2005 Acura MDX.  It has about 270,000 miles on it.  He bought it 4 years ago from a traveling salesperson.  It was in mint condition and still is.  Most of the miles were highway.

 

It has been overheating.  His neighbor has a scanner and it says that cylinders 1,3,5 & 6 are misfiring.  Can you address that for us?

 

Thanks,

Scott T.

The first thing I would want to know is what’s the coolant temperature reading.

is the thermostat operational, the misfire codes could be something totally unrelated. 


Thanks!

if you look in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) topic, there's a whole article on misfiring, including tests you can try.
