#400 of 414 Repair of side mirror by mjsteam Jan 28, 2009 (8:21 pm)
I struck my right side mirror pulling into my garage and the mirror (glass) broke. I do not have a dealership close to me, so I researched parts on-line. To my surprise, it appears I can just replace the mirror (cheap) without replacing the entire mirror assembly (expensive).   My question is, do anyone know how to get the assembly apart to just replace the glass?   Thanks, Replies to this message: jpm150 (Aug 04, 2009 6:03 am)

Replying to: ljc2tall (Jul 21, 2008 6:01 pm) Finally had a chance to get my ridgeline in to the shop when the engine amd vtm-4 light was on. They diagnoised it as a bad relay that is common to the engine and vtm-4 light. Alls well for now. But as I was driving over there on the rough winter roads I started to hear a clunking in the right rear. Maybe its the start of something else.

Replying to: ljc2tall (Jan 29, 2009 7:13 pm) See my earlier post (#380 I think). For me, the clunking was a defective strut assembly.

Replying to: ljc2tall (Jan 29, 2009 7:13 pm) I've experienced that clunking or wheel pulsing in the right rear area a few times as well and it always seems to be during the winter months. Can't find exactly what causes it, but I believe it may have something to do with snow or ice build up in that area. It never lasts long and it has never caused me enough concern to take it in.

Replying to: chaddo_kailua (Apr 19, 2006 7:21 am) Google for:   wwest abolition hesitation -dfg   For all you might ever want to know about the re-acceleration downshift delay in these newer, post 1998, FWD and F/awd transaxles.   Ford has a breakthrough solution in that they have adopted a variable displacement ATF oil pump for the Edge while everyone else seems to be stuck trying to get drivers to adapt to their "future intent" detection technique.   Release, Fully Release, the gas pedal FAST/QUICKLY/RAPIDLY and the engine/transaxle ECU control firmware will "judge" (assume..??) that your intent is to slow using engine compression braking and thereby remain in the lower gear you were just using for acceleration, low to MODERATE acceleration. On the other hand ease up on the gas pedal slowly and the ECU will command an upshift.   Once that upshift is (inadvertently) commanded it MUST be completed before a downshift can be commanded and now with the engine idling and the new HIGHLY EFFICIENT ATF real time line pressure control system there will not be enough fluid pressure in reserve to complete a second sequential gear shift/change.   So DBW is used to delay the onset of rising engine torque until the required downshift can be completed.   1-2 second downshift delays are being reported as typical.

Replying to: anicoll (Apr 01, 2008 8:53 am) My 2007 ridgeline windshield crack. Its a straight crack originating at the left side progessing toward the center. I took it to two dealers, Cerritos and Downey and said its from a rock. I disagree because the crack is clean and have no spider type impact. Is there anybody suggest how to go about getting an honest opinion. Replies to this message: bolivar (Jul 20, 2009 10:35 pm)

Replying to: encarl (Jul 20, 2009 6:03 am) What does the cause of the crack matter?   Are you trying to warranty this?   If so, what Honda says is what you are interested in.   Otherwise, you should be interested in what your insurance says.

Replying to: mjsteam (Jan 28, 2009 8:21 pm) Did you ever get any advice on how to replace the mirror glass? Mine got whacked and simply popped out without even scratching the plastic mirror assembly so I'd like to just replace the glass. Also I can't seem to turn up a mirror glass replacement for my Ridgeline -- just the entire mirror assembly. Do you remember where you bought your glass?
