Brian’s answer seems right. Unless you’re getting the problem during the rain. One way to test for the heater core is to leave the heat off and see if you get any water. Leaving the heater switch off turns off the valve which sends water to your heater core.

Replacing a heater core is expensive because they have to remove the entire dashboard. It’s probably at least $1000+ job.

Not sure about the noise.

Acura code U0107 = "lost communication with throttle actuator control module" test it and replace if tests indicate failure or out of spec. if you don't have the ability to do this, take to your favorite mechanic or the stealership.

I am assuming it is oil fouled rather than fuel fouled. Oil fouling is usually due to valve stem seal leakage. Most engines have the oil return on the cylinder head at the rear. When the engine is shut off, some oil pools at the rear of the head. If the valve guide seals are worn, then the oil will leak around the stem of the #4 valve and eventually foul the plug. If there are no real issues with the engine other than this one, it is usually best to keep a clean plug or two available and swap out the plug periodically when fouling is detected. Then clean the fouled one and keep for reuse later. If it is happening too often, getting the cylinder head reconditioned is a good idea.

Check your owners manual!!! If the light still stays on, you may have a faulty sensor in one wheel.

are you parked, moving , idling, just key on, or what? what is the car doing? what are you doing? The CHECK engine lamp glows key on to say , IM happy. now. then you start car, and it must go out. if it comes on driving it means , IM not happy and that means connect a scan tool and read out the errors. if that is too hard, (it's not) then get it serviced. there are only 2 paths here, DIY,or they do it. hint , the newer the car the more things that can be unhappy PCM/BCM/TCM/etc. or like my car, up to 14 computers , not happy. fun stuff, no.....

Set tires to correct pressure (34 PSI) is usually the best because it allows for temperature variations and drive your vehicle. If this does not fix, then you have a problem with a sensor.

Changing the spark plugs it not the problemIf you did your own work & can't retrace the problemyou put in there, then you will need a repair shop

The whole system is very simple. There is a valve that opens and closes on one of 2 hoses that come from the engine. If the heater core is not getting water, the valve itself is the problem. If they did the flushing properly they should have checked to see if that valve was fully open to allow the flushing process to clean out the heater core too. If there is sloshing in the heater core (check it by listening under the dashboard when heat is turned on) then there is AIR in the core stopping the antifreeze mix from going through its coils. Remove the heater switch on the heater hose and check it for proper action first. Next have a compressed air test of the heater core to see if it is clogged. If you fix this, try to do regular maintenance on your beautiful MDX!

It is called a 'Waypoint', and is found using the Search feature. This must all be covered in the manual for your brand new vehicle. The Navigation Manual is in the link. https://owners.acura.com/vehicles/information/2022/MDX/manuals ..

SORRY WE DO NOT KNOW THE PRICING FOR REPAIR WORK ON YOUR ACURA

I had the same error. Delete your phone from your MDX, turn off car. Turn back on. Add your phone back to the MDX.

Are you saying that the freon is leaking. Most likely the seal in the compressor is the problem

At a shop that does a/c work. It is illegal to release it into the atmosphere.

depends how high up the leak is from , get the engine jet washed clean so you can see if its the rocker cover, head gasket, oil pan or something else

Have to remove the gas tank......

It seems that the battery is not the problem. It might be that you have a short our something that is draining the battery while the car is off. Have you had any accessories added to the car that require battery power? Anything plugged in etc.?

If the car thinks that it is not in park you can't remove the key.
