Yes, I understand todays cars are different, but they still are designed to not require the kind of power that drains a battery in a couple weeks. Something is wrong, wrong wrong. The only thing that should require power (at least that I can think of) is the clock (or radio clock) and the receiver for the key fob. Both of those combined can't be more than 1 or 2 milliamp. You have a 200 mA draw. That is big.
 
I have never heard of any radios or DVD players (or anything else) ever being damaged by leaving them on when replacing a battery. Possibly, if the key was also left on while changing the battery but I doubt it would happen in that case either.
 
Since electronic problems are difficult to trouble-shoot, even is Honda is aware of a problem, it may take them years to figure it out.

Specialized knowledge to change a tire w/TPMS? by mitch65

I'm planning to change my tires on my 05 EX-L. I'm bringing my car to a local tire place that basically just changes tires and fixes flats. I know the TPMS sensors are in the wheel, but should I worry that the tires aren't installed correctly? Do they need special knowledge when they change the tire? I'm going to warn them about the sensors, but I'm not sure they'll really know what that means. Anything I should watch for?
Thanks.

Need "Check Engine" Codes. Dealer won't give them to me. All the sources on a Google search want to charge for the codes.
 
Anybody got a "Free" list Pilot: '03- 4wd and CR-V: '03- 4wd
 
Thanks,
Kip

In case you haven't tried it, enter "Honda Pilot" and the specific error code (without the quotes) in a search engine. That will almost certainly get you the information you need.

Check your local library; most library systems have a subscription to the ALLDATA database, where you would be able to find the codes.

I have lost my maintenance schedule and want to know when the timing belt is due for replacement. Has anyone lost an engine because they went beyond the recommened miles?

NO, that was just a waste of 20 minutes. Can someone give me the answer without another search?

I'd do it no sooner than 90K and no later than 105K unless you are operating your vehicle in extreme heat (100+ degrees) or extreme cold (-10)--then at 60K.
