AUTOKAY Air Intake Hose for Acura MDX 2010-2013 — Direct-Fit 17228-RYE-A10, OEM Match, Sealed Replacement

AUTOKAY 17228-RYE-A10 is a direct-fit replacement air intake hose engineered to restore proper airflow and sealing for Acura MDX 2010–2013 models.

If your Acura MDX shows rough idling, reduced throttle response, or an engine bay vacuum leak after inspecting the factory inlet tubing, replacing the air intake hose with a compatible part can often resolve the problem. This AUTOKAY hose is manufactured to match the OEM fitment references 17228-RYE-A10, 17228RYEA10, and 17228 RYE A10 and is intended for the 4-door Base Sport Utility Acura MDX produced from 2010 through 2013.

How does this hose restore proper engine airflow?

The intake hose channels filtered air from the airbox to the throttle body while keeping the system sealed from dirt and leaks. Installing a correct-fit hose eliminates unmetered air and ensures the mass airflow sensor and engine computer read accurate intake conditions.

• OEM-matching dimensions for correct alignment with airbox and throttle body
• Seals against vacuum leaks that cause erratic idle and loss of power
• Durable construction maintains shape under engine bay heat and vibration
