The "Check Emission System" warning may be triggered by a variety of issues, including a faulty oxygen sensor, a loose gas cap, or issues with the catalytic converter. It's recommended to have the vehicle diagnosed with an OBD-II scanner to identify the specific error code.
To pair your phone, enable Bluetooth on your device. On the Acura MDX interface, go to "Settings" > "Bluetooth/Wi-Fi" > "Bluetooth Device List" > "Add Bluetooth Device", and select your phone from the list. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete pairing.

To replace the key fob battery, use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pry apart the key fob case. Remove the old battery and replace it with a new CR2032 battery, ensuring the positive side is facing up. Snap the two halves of the fob back together.
If the touchscreen becomes unresponsive, try restarting the infotainment system by turning the ignition off and on. If the issue persists, check for any available software updates or consult your Acura dealership for further assistance.
To check the transmission fluid level, ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the engine is warm. Locate the transmission dipstick, remove it, and wipe it clean. Reinsert the dipstick fully, then remove it again to check the fluid level against the marked indicators.
To program the HomeLink system, hold the garage door remote close to the HomeLink buttons. Press and hold the desired HomeLink button and the garage door remote button simultaneously until the HomeLink indicator light changes from slow to rapid blinking. Release both buttons to complete the programming.
Common causes of battery drain include leaving lights on, a faulty alternator, or parasitic draws from devices plugged into the vehicle's power outlets. It's advisable to inspect these areas and consult a professional if the problem continues.
