FAQQuestions about the MDX manual
Which MDX years does this manual cover?
Every year from 2001 to 2024 — 23 separate manuals, one per model year. Pick your year in the selector; the manual you receive is matched to that exact year, engine and trim.
Is this the OEM Acura MDX manual or an aftermarket guide?
The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Acura published for the MDX, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.
Does it include MDX wiring diagrams?
Yes. Full wiring diagrams are part of every MDX manual, alongside repair procedures, specifications and diagnostic information.
Does the manual cover MDX recalls?
65 recalls are on federal record across the 2001–2024 MDX, listed by year below. The manual carries the manufacturer's diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems involved; the recall repairs themselves are performed free by Acura dealers.
Why do some MDX years cost more?
Pricing follows the manual: 2001–2012 at $29.99, 2013–2024 at $49.99. Newer model years have substantially larger manuals with more systems, control modules and diagrams.
Is this a subscription?
No. One payment, and the manual is yours to keep — unlike per-vehicle subscriptions that renew every year.
How do I get the manual after purchase?
It is a digital manual — nothing ships. Access details arrive by email right after checkout, and you can use it on any device.
