$25 OEM oil pressure switch plus $7 o-ring took care of the problem. Got a check engine light for P3400 “Bank 1 valve pause system stuck”. We still love Odysseyĩ/2022 128, 000 miles on Odyssey. Replaced all the brake pads and disks myself, with that the original ones were still within the specs. I have 2000 miles of the extended Honda warranty left, but didn’t have a chance to use it yet. I'm using a precise measuring cap for oil changes and have noticed that the car started taking oil after hitting 85K miles, for now it is around 1/2 quart for 6000 miles and increasing. I'm on my 3rd set of tires and second set of brakes. Got parts from Honda and did it for $600 myself using all original parts going slowly for 2 days. With the pulleys, bolts and belts dealer wanted around $1700. Had to do timing belt/water pump service. At 60k expecting second transmission fluid change, those are super expensive when done with the dealer so I just got a box of ATF from Honda and do it myself. Oil changes - I’m averaging about 9-10k miles between those, it is controlled by the maintenance minder. Luckily we do not move them at all so it didn’t affect anything. Honda has installed some brackets to make it impossible to slide the seas into the middle making the seats much harder to move in and out. There was a recall for the second row issue when people do not pay attention and put the seats into incorrect middle position when they don’t latch. Had to replace front tires at 48K miles, the back are still OK and I stopped doing rotation at around 15k miles. No other issues with the car, we like it a lot. We still love our Odyssey.ĩ/2018, 51k miles on the Odyssey. Other than that the car is still great, tires are at 3/32 and need to replace soon. I have to call it a very poor design, Honda did a TSB for other years to replace that thing for free but not for 2016 (yet). The issue was intermittent but I was lucky to have it once for Honda service people to see it, part and labor was around $500 for a small button covered by warranty. There is no other way to open the rear door, you have to press on that rubber button while holding proximity key 2-3' away. Apparently, the rubber seal inside of the button is not good enough and allows water to get into the button membranes. That thing started driving me nuts, during cold freezing days it was not possible to open rear door (liftgate, hatch - whatever you call it). The only negative thing to report is a rear door lock/push button that had to be replaced by Honda. We still like the Odysseyģ/2018 Two years of owning the Odyssey. Usually my 25 miles trip to work deliveres 24.8-25.5 mpg with 65% hwy/35% city driving. Except that weird incident with VSA light no other isssues that required a visit to a shop. Overall I still like it, however would go with LX probably to save the money.ģ/2017 One year of owning the Odyssey, update. After 60k miles it would be a $1000 ordeal to fix I bet, some "sensor replacement-adjustment", not "it is all good, we didn't find anything wrong and reset cleared it". Dealer just did a reset, didn't find anything wrong with it. VSA light came on and stuck like that after making a tight turn during city driving. The car has been into the shop once and it bothers me, to the point I've got Honda care extended warranty to 120K miles. Sliding doors are fine but for $6000 extra many people wouldn't mind to get out and close the doors for the youngest ones, plus 4yo need help to do her seat belt anyway.ĭVD is ok, but it is cheaper get all of them brand new iPads with movies and still keep bunch of money. Vac was used once, not sure if it is really needed because of that :) With car seats in place second row seats do not give you enough space to slide them (LX doesn't have middle second row seat by default). I also think that LX at the current price (25k) is probably a better deal after all - the middle seat on the second row had to be removed to allow two kids to get into the third row without troubles. We made multiple long trips in Odyssey with 4 kids and it is great for that. I'm averaging 22mpg 50 highway/50 city combined. Also, 31k for SE OTD with 0.9% apr is so much better than 37k with 2.8% for Pilot. But unless I'm in the middle of a desert in Texas or in Chicago snows in January Odyssey still would be my choice. So much easier to see what is around you. Not as silent as Pilot, but so much easier to drive. Parking garage at work? OMG, not in a Pilot. Attach wheels to my house, give it an engine - that's how it I felt. Well, after trying Pilot and Odyssey (just to prove myself that Odyssey is no match for a 40yo alfa male) I almost cried. It is OK Pilot has a smaller trunk, OK that 3rd row is smaller, OK it is 5 grands more - such a nice car. Family is growing, was thinking a Pilot would do it.
