My 2007 4wd Pilot has about 29K miles, and I'm wondering what we'll need to do at 30K. I can't find any list of recommended service in the manual, and I've read that you should just do things as the MM tells you to. However, I'll be on a roadtrip at roughly the time that I hit 30K, and worry about whether I should be proactive to get the work done. My dealer offers a 30K maintenance package, but charges almost $500, which seems like a bit of a rip-off. Can anyone tell me what I need to have done at 30K? Thanks!

| My 08 EX-L with 500 miles just developed a weird noise from under the car. A rattling noise when I'm accelerating. It sounds like loose metal, almost like the heat shield. I plan to get under the car (after the heat wave leaves DC) and poke around but thought I'd ask if anyone else had the same problem. Thanks! | |
 I have an '07 Pilot with a little over 6K miles on it (Yup is my wife's she's not a "driver") The problem is that whenever we drive up the driveway the rear hatch makes a "thump" sound. It also does it randomly over uneven terrain. I took it to the dealership and they adjusted the latch and greased up the rubber feet on the hatch but it still makes the noise. Any clues?? Thanx

Something moving around in the most rearward storage compartment that goes across and just inside where the rear hatch latches. If you have a trailer hitch receiver and the "Tow Bar" is inserted, it can bump or rattle. Could also be something like a "Strut" or shock absorber. But not likely. |

Fuel tank in newer models isn't any better. My Pilot is a 2007 and, though I didn't have a sloshing sound, it was worse, it was a whistling sound. After trying to convince me that it's "normal" and after telling the dealer that I am not takng the car out of the dealership till they fix the problem, they first changed the fuel pump, didn't work and then they changed the fuel tank. We went on the lot and tried several cars, till we found one that didn't make the noise They just exchanged the tanks between the two cars. So, obvously, Honda has done nothing as far as the noisy tank is concerned. It's just a matter of luck, some make the noise, some don't.
