When listening to talking books using the CD changer (factory installed) there is a high pitch whine when stepping on the gas. The whine goes away when I take my foot off the gas. This noise is not present when I use the single CD player in the dash. Any advice? Thank in advance.

I have an 06 EXL AWD w/RES and have just hit 4k miles, and the 'Oil Life' indicator reads 40%. The users manual and the on-line schedule i found here both say oil changes every 3750 miles. I thought the new 'Maintenance Minder' in 2006s lights up at the required maintenance scheduled mileages. Any insights please.....

Replying to: cathkiley (Mar 08, 2006 1:06 pm)  . CD Changer had an amplifier and I had not screwed it in tightly when I installed the CD changer and that caused it to rattle and would whine. So after screwing that amplifier in firmly the noise went away. So I am not sure if it is the same problem and I do not know how easy it is to access the amplifier module in Pilot. But it is worth giving it a try. |

Replying to: mouac01 (Apr 04, 2006 3:34 pm) I've just had too many problems with those quickie places either overfilling or underfilling the crankcase, putting in the wrong oil, etc. They just have too many different types of cars to deal with, so they treat them all the same. The Honda dealer knows exactly what and how much your vehicle takes.

Replying to: qbrozen (Apr 05, 2006 6:50 am) 1. takes too long - some require a drop off for an oil change and that is rediculous. I figure I've had 50 oil changes in my life not counting my wife's car. While I've never had anything go wrong at either place, I can tell you that the a Jiffy lube type place is so much more effiecient. Usually I'll wait till I see an oil change place that has no line so I know it can happen in less than half an hour. Also, Jiffy lube will fill your fluids as well. You have to figure what your time is worth, and for me, life's too short to spend hours on an oil change.

Replying to: aspesisteve (Apr 05, 2006 9:32 am) And I certainly agree about what my time is worth, which is why I decided its not worth all that extra time I need to take to go home and add oil or drain the excess because jiffy-quickie-spiffy lube/oil/works either didn't listen to me when I explained how much the vehicle needs or didn't care what the car actually needs. But, hey, I'm sure everyone's experiences vary in this regard, too. After it happened to me 3 times at 3 different places, I gave up trying to save $5.
