#254 of 293 droning noise in the odyssey van by mooger1 Apr 18, 2008 (2:18 pm)
wanted to add to previous post, while driving my van at 40-45 miles an hour there was a constant droning noise, did not want my van used as a research vehicle to try to find the problem, had the y - pipe replaced and the noise only got quieter but did not go away...kept driving it for 8 months hoping someone would really figure what was causing the noise. Went back to the dealer hoping for some new information on the noise and one of the mechanic went with me for a ride. While traveling down the highway we turned the van off and coasted at 40 miles an hour..Noise was still there and the motor and transmission were out of play..We then figured out it had to be coming from the wheels. After taking it into the shop and listening to the wheels as he spun them he figured out the bearing was making the noise..I really do like this van, it drives great,it's comfortable, looks better than a toyota and is decent on gas..

Has anyone who has had the A-Pipe and the rear engine mount replaced under TSB's 06-050 and 06-083, did this get rid of the droning and vibration at 2100 rpm or was it just a temporary fix and the droning came back after awhile? Some say it resolved the problem and others are saying that it made little difference. My dealer ordered the A-pipe and rear engine mount for me and will change it out for me when the parts arrive.

Replying to: poocat (Jul 03, 2008 8:57 pm) i had both the a- pipe replaced and a front wheel bearing replaced and i am happy to say all my noise is gone.....suggestion drive the van between 40 and 60, the speed noise is noticed. On a flat highway turn off the engine and see if the noise is still there while coasting at that speed..You may have the same problem as i did , a noisey wheel bearing. we couldn't believe that was our problem but we are noise free now..We are now feeling alot of vibration in our steering wheel when stopped at a red light. Help anyone with this problem. I know all vehicles have problems, and i love this van but it drives me crazy the money you pay for what you get. We have just gone over the 30,000 mile mark and I'd like to get all the problems worked out before it starts costing me more money.....help anyone with the vibration issue Replies to this message: poocat (Jul 06, 2008 9:56 am)

Replying to: mooger1 (Jul 05, 2008 4:21 am) I took our van in to the dealer last week and complained about the droning and vibration at idle. The service manager checked it out and ordered the A-pipe and is also replacing the rear engine mount for the vibration at idle. The vibration in ours isn't too bad but at idle and driving you notice it and it drives me nuts. Strange that in Park and I rev the engine to 2100 rpm I don't hear the droning noise. It only happens when you are driving or when there's a load on the engine/transmission. Glad to know that to know that you got your droning noise problem fixed. I'll keep the front bearing fix in mind just in case replacing the A-pipe doesn't work for me. Thanks.

I just got my van back this afternoon. They replaced the A-pipe and the rear engine mount. The loud droning noise at 2100 rpm is basically gone. It's quiet for a change and we're pretty happy with it. I hope it stays this way. But.....even after replacing the rear engine mount the vibration in the steering wheel is still there, there was no change between the old and new engine mount. Back to square one on this one. At least I got one of my problems fixed.
#259 of 293 Re: Droning Noise Occuring under ECO mode [jameshayden] by markymark10 Jul 12, 2008 (6:23 pm)
Replying to: jameshayden (Jan 17, 2008 6:24 pm) I have a 2005 EX and absolutely hate my ECO (VCM) mode. Would do anything to disable it. IF anyone knows how to, please let me know. Basically, anytime I decelerate the ECO light comes on followed by a resonating droning sound that vibrates throughout the vehicle. Not to mention the continuous shifting in and out of ECO mode to maintain speed. Can't stand this feature, even worse with load. Woudn't have bought this vehicle had I known this performance. Really bad feature, extremely dissapointed.
#260 of 293 Humming on Odyssey 2005 EX by van_info Jul 16, 2008 (11:55 am)
Hi, I have an Odyssey 2005 EX that started to hum several months ago. The humming came from the back of the car.   I went to a Honda Dealer in Irving, TX and initially they said it was the tire and hence they rotated and switched the tire. Apparently that did not solve the issue.   I read this forum after that first attempt failed and suggested them to check the wheel bearings or the A pipe. I took 2 technicians on a ride so that they could hear the humming sound (The humming sound only occur on a smooth road so I took them to a smooth road). Having heard the humming, one of the technician told me that it could be the wheel bearing. Hence, they replaced the rears wheel bearing.   So far my Ody has not given me any humming noise anymore. This is my 2nd day though. I will report if the hum comes back again. Replies to this message: mooger1 (Dec 19, 2008 2:20 pm)

Replying to: van_info (Jul 16, 2008 11:55 am) great news that you found the source of the humming noise..I was the one that posted the message after i discovered that my noise was coming from the front wheel bearing... I have no more humming at all, and am well pleased with my van..my daughter just bought a new 08 ex-l i sure hope that she has good luck with theirs.
#263 of 293 Brakes can be fixed by erik_h Dec 19, 2008 (6:00 pm)
Replying to: michal513 (Dec 18, 2008 2:27 pm) Try some of the upgraded aftermarket brakes. It could fix you issues. I saw one company (brakeperformance com) which guarantees its rotors for 2 years or for life, depending on model. The ody is fairly heavy so they work the brakes pretty hard. I may try this company next time my rotors need to be replaced.
