#3365 of 3431 Goodwill Repair? by cj75

Nov 24, 2011 (9:00 am)

Not sure if someone can help me...we have a 2007 Honda Pilot with 104500kms on it...we just found out that the rear main seal has a leak. What are the chances of getting Honda to do a Goodwill repair?
We have taken the car to the same dealership for all our services plus we just bought a Ridgeline from them a few months ago...
Thanks

You sound like a good candidate. Years aren't too bad but might depend on the miles too. Since you said kms though, I'm assuming you're up in Canada and my (very limited) impression is that dealers and manufacturers aren't as willing to help the customer as much as ones in the States.

#3367 of 3431 Shocks...? by odie6l

Nov 26, 2011 (5:32 pm)

Just wanted to see if anyone has had to have their shocks done yet. I currently drive a 2006 Honda Pilot EX-OR named "The Beast". I'm just shy of 79k on him so shocks would be a little soon for him.

Well, I got lucky... turns out the shocks were sort of fine. They just needed a pressure adjustment. Gotta love the off-road shocks..

There is some limited information on this web page about knock sensor replacement on an 2003 Pilot that should help. The knock sensors are available for sale on the Internet from several companies, and it sounds fairly easy to replace. YOU WILL NEED TO REPLACE IT, TOO, as it is an important part and it generates its own voltage, so you cannot bypass it, or do without it.

Code P0325 indicates that your knock sensor is defective. You can't erase the code unless you use ODB2 car reader but it will come back again. To figure out the exact location of the knock sensor you can request the print from your Auto parts store. You can do it by yourself by removing first the plastic cover of the engine then figure out the next steps. I hope this will help.

Hello - I just bought a new stereo for my Honda to try and fix the problem with the speakers not working after jumping the car. I'm curious to find out if you replaced your stereo? Did it fix the problem? I bought the stereo because it was a good deal, but I would hate to replace it and not have it work still. Where are you at in the problem? Thanks in advance

Hello - I'm curious to find out if you ever found out the solution to the speakers not working after changing the battery. Did you have to get a new stereo? Where are you at on the issue. I just bought a new stereo but would hate to replace it and still have the issue of the speakers not working. Please help, and thank you in advance.
