Shop for Acura ILX Hybrid Parts

The Acura ILX Hybrid is a gasoline-electric hybrid subcompact executive car manufactured by Honda's luxury brand Acura from 2013 to 2014. The first Acura ILX Hybrid was introduced along with the ILX sedan in 2012 for the 2013 model year. It was Acura's first gasoline-electric vehicle and shared its gas and electric powertrain with Honda's Civic Hybrid. Competing against models like the Dodge Avenger, Chevrolet Cruze and Toyota Avalon, the ILX Hybrid had been available for only two model years before being discontinued.
The Acura ILX Hybrid made its debut at the 2012 Chicago Auto Show and went on sale in the U.S. on May 22, 2012, as a 2013 model. It was offered in only one trim level and only one body style, a 4-door sedan but had Premium and Technology packages. Coming with 17-inch wheels, leather upholstery, navigation system, premium audio system with SiriusXM satellite radio, high-intensity discharge headlamps, a multi-view rear backup camera and others, the ILX Hybrid was powered by a 1.5 L inline 4-cylinder engine rated at 111 horsepower and 127 lb-ft of torque coupled with an electric motor and a small lithium-ion battery pack. A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is standard on the ILX Hybrid and takes the place of a conventional automatic transmission.

Boasting plenty of standard luxury features, smooth ride, steady handling, the top five-star rating for overall protection in crash tests, the Acura ILX Hybrid is worth your consideration as a family sedan. However, as the accumulation of mileage, you still need to make good preparations for these common problems on it:
First, engine failure. Although the Acura ILX Hybrid is a hybrid vehicle, the engine is still its main power source. Once the engine has something wrong, the vehicle will also be on the verge of breaking down. But experienced ILX Hybrid mechanics told there are obvious signs to diagnose this problem. It often shows as strange sounds like squealing or rattling from the engine, burnt oil smell filling the compartment, oil and coolant leaking, a decrease in power, acceleration and fuel economy appearing and Check Engine Light coming on. All these signs are indicating that the ILX Hybrid intake manifold gasket, air filter, oil filter, cylinder head gasket, drive belt and timing belt are in trouble.
Second, braking failure. The significance of the braking system is valued, and every driver will attach much importance to its working condition. However, after a while of driving, some Acura ILX Hybrid drivers complained the brakes would become noisy and the brake pedal would pulsate when being depressed. Moreover, if you find the brakes respond poorly, score marks cover the brake rotors, the rear brakes are locked up on the wet surfaces, the parking brake cannot hold the car properly and the Parking Brake Light is activated, then the ILX Hybrid brake pad set, brake disc, brake proportioning valve, hydraulic hose and parking brake cable need replacements.
Moreover, in order to enjoy a perfect ride brought by your Acura ILX Hybrid, you have to make sure auto parts of it work well first. However, some parts just could not last as long as the vehicle could due to harsh working conditions and fragile materials. And seat belt, as the protector of occupants during a car accident, needs to be replaced when the pretensioner is activated. Other parts such as fog light, headlight, seat belt, antenna and antenna base and so on should be maintained on a regular basis as well for a safe and comfortable driving experience.
