Check Engine Light Flashing

When the check engine light is flashing on a 2026 Acura RDX it often indicates a severe condition such as an engine misfire that can damage the catalytic converter if driven long-term.

2026 Acura RDX Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2026 Acura RDX without diagnosing the underlying cause can mask problems and lead to more expensive repairs later.

2026 Acura RDX Check Engine Light Codes

Common check engine light codes for the 2026 Acura RDX include P0420 (catalyst efficiency), P0300–P0304 (misfires), and P0130–P0167 (oxygen sensor or circuit faults). If left unrepaired, P0420 can lead to failed emissions tests and expensive catalytic converter replacement; misfires can damage engine internals and converters; sensor failures reduce fuel economy and performance. At Crown Acura Richmond in Richmond, VA, we identify the exact code, explain the consequences of delaying repairs, and provide cost-effective options that prioritize long-term reliability. Our factory-trained technicians use OEM diagnostics and parts to correct issues efficiently—this approach often costs less than independent shops over time because it prevents follow-on failures and preserves warranty coverage, which requires repairs at a certified dealership. We also offer service financing and regular service specials to minimize immediate expense. For clear, professional guidance on codes and repair choices, schedule service with Crown Acura Richmond and protect your vehicle’s performance and value.
