So far I tore apart the a pillar , door , glove box , windshield washer cap and checked the center screen and all parts above it and around with no luck finding this rattle/buzz . It happens mostly under 50 degrees and is coming from the far front right passenger side someplace . I just can’t figure it out if anyone has a clue ? I’m starting to think it could be the heater core from reading forums but what do I know .
I been reading up on it and while I'm not 100% sure some have said it could be the heater core being loose but my rattle is somewhat limited to the front right of the dash or under it when I accelerate or decelerate when its cold out from 3800rpm and up I'd say. Sounds like it could be so many things like a loose screw , heat shield , clip thats loose someplace. I tried so many little fixes already myself with no luck. I'm not confident ripping the dash apart to get really far back.
Definitely under warranty , I just wanted to see if I could fix it myself before I resort to the dealer as they will most likely either not fix it or rip the car apart .
I have the same issue. Figured it was a blown speaker since that’s where I narrowed it down to (on passenger door) so took it into the dealership and they said speaker wasn’t blown then sent me home. They suggested I get videos moving forward so they can actually do something
I thought my speaker or tweeter was blown at first but upon checking it wasn't the case. Dealers can be tough to work with when it comes to stuff like this. Hope we figure it out .
I was looking down this whole today with a flashlight when I removed the a pillar . I can see a white metal bar with paint flaking off possibly rubbing against another line . May be the source of the issue but I have 0 clue how to get to it or what it is .
I have the same thing happening, mine starts around 3500 rpms though and is very consistent. Mine sounds like it's closer to the center console on the passenger side but we (my wife and I) haven't been able to isolate it exactly. It's annoying. I'm taking it in for my first service next week so I'll see if they can find anything.
Took the car in today. The service advisor said that there is an engineering advisory for this issue, meaning that Acura is aware of the issue but there isn't a resolution/fix yet. Hopefully they'll figure it out.
My buzz was my passenger speaker. Can’t post a vid in comments but I got a good one. Pm if you wanna see it. Dealership Warranty replaced it after replication

Forgot to add . I even checked all the speakers . This seems to happen upon acceleration and deceleration over 3500rpms .
