Are you saying that the freon is leaking. Most likely the seal in the compressor is the problem

At a shop that does a/c work. It is illegal to release it into the atmosphere.

depends how high up the leak is from , get the engine jet washed clean so you can see if its the rocker cover, head gasket, oil pan or something else

Have to remove the gas tank......

It seems that the battery is not the problem. It might be that you have a short our something that is draining the battery while the car is off. Have you had any accessories added to the car that require battery power? Anything plugged in etc.?

If the car thinks that it is not in park you can't remove the key.

This happened with my '04 MDX. What I found was a broken wire. It was not at the camera but up in the wiring harness in the pillar/roof support. There is some slack in the wiring and you can pull it out a ways. I have no idea how or why the wire became damaged. Once repaired everything work fine.

First thing to try is disconnected the battery for 20 min. Then reconnect the battery. It may reset the computer. You will have to re-enter the radio code.

The battery is so dead that a jumper will not have the amps to start the car. The clicking sound is from the starter trying to turn. First I would go a head and replace the battery with one you no to be fully charged and try again.

Yes the wheel sensor or sensors may be at fault here.

Go to helm.com and buy a 'real' shop manual. You will need it and it's extremely helpful, especially with the MDX's. yes it's a little spendy (around $100+) but you will value it immediately. I love mine! While you're at it, buy a good code scanner with enhanced capabilities. Very helpful, especially on these cars. Good luck!

Yes it should work

5.9 hours plus alignment

Spark plugs come pregapped. Look at them though, Sometimes one has been hit and the gap is smaller.44 thousandths is the gap for yours.

probably not, but if the frame twisted it could have pinched a brake line.
