acura mdx emission system problem message on dash

In this video I troubleshoot a 2014 Acura MDX with an emission system problem message displayed on the dash screen. I found codes p0420, p0497, and p145c.

Nice video.!! Thanks

[@noelvillafane7747]

bro thanks awesome job

[@timothyayoola3244]

Thanks for the information

[@lannybrasher2452]

Good video dude. Hope this is the same on 2010 Acura TL.

[@duanedonaldson2262]

Thank you for the flow test, wouldn't the PCM monitor the MAP sensor to see if engine vacuum changes when the Purge Valve is commanded on, if there is no or a small amount of MAP change then it can set a code for low or no flow? If you have a chance in the future to diagnose this valve, can you give this a try via your scan data and bi-direction control, thanks again.

[@delyodonnell8461]

Easy to understand

[@mrweisu]

Can’t you put something like liquid wrench there to free the valve up?

[@peterashayib3164]

Is this same for an 08?

[@dannyperez07]

Thanks!

[@billyalvarado9191]

[@faviodiaz78]

Good video

[@suprmax]

So was that the emissions problem? I like how you really did your best to find the problem and how you fixed it. The kind of mechanic you really want to hire!

[@gautorepair]

Issue was resolved

[@ammar36000]

Thnx

[@jamiecruz4465]

Can I pass inspection with vsa light on

[@brittherrera4924]

My mdx kicks this light on then it turns off why would it do that?

[@agustin86iskander]

Other than the code, what other signs the car gives you if you have this problem? My wife’s mdx while driving the car pulls (rpm gauge goes up and down quickly) thanks

[@gautorepair]

For this particular code there should be no other issues

[@esteve801]

Need part number and price. Also what tools for the repair? That head camera is great. I am subscribed!

[@gautorepair]

Pv872. All you need is 10mm socket and ratchet, pliers.

[@MWDrone]

You have a part number for that? I need one, emissions problem on my 14 MDX just came on today. Tapped on it and code went away

[@Wxsharpe]

I also have 2014 MDX. Have you had the issue of all warning lights illuminated and erratic hard shifting?

[@simonmhamdi2955]

You should be able to find it at any local auto parts, or dealership

[@kevinwheeler1631]

[@powerblaze2u]

[@senadkurbegovic1311]

[@Un4seen]

Use the fuel injection cleaner and I promise you, all that would e fixed. FIC cleans the emission system

[@carmonacarmona5861]

What’s up G mechanic… on the Acura did the code clear after repair or did it still need the catalicconverter..
And thumbs up and subscribe

[@gautorepair]

I cleared the code. If you have catalytic converter efficiency codes you may need to replace the catalytic converters

[@dannyperez07]

I have the same problem, can you fix it? Where are you located at?

[@gautorepair]

South Florida

[@Arthurcci]

Acura dealer in sunrise Florida rapped me off. Told me I had put bad gas that contained water. Flush the entire system, changed the catalyzer 1 and 2 .
$9000 job. 2 days after repair the same light came on. They did not want to help , the manager was nasty about my issue after spending $9000 to their business. Don’t go there , they are thieves

[@gautorepair]

Sorry that you are going through this. I understand that the same light came on but do you know if its the same code

[@deshanelargie5907]

I'm having the same problem

[@atlsweetie1521]

How much would you charge for this?

[@gautorepair]

About 270. Part included

What happens if it doesn't get fixed?

[@mhhc1720]

Nada pero gasta más gas y si en su estado hacen emissión test no pasará

[@jakepthsd]

your car will not passed the smoke check and needed to fix before operating on the road again :)

[@hortonsstuff6948]

Lol why put stuff like this near the hot engine

[@liblib54]

Long video. Nothing fixed.

[@mr.upshaw5689]

All those valves have to be replaced... All this guy did was waste time...

Turn off the radio Dingo

[@1962dwlucas]

Please no more videos, you are not a good mechanic. Your just a parts changer at best.
