#863 of 1285 'TCS , ABS, AND PARKING BRAKE LIGHT" by inshan Nov 07, 2008 (5:24 pm)
Hi Everyone,                  I own an 2001 Odyssey and sometimes I notice when I start the engine the tcs,abs and parking brake light stays on, I usually turns of the engine for a few seconds then restart and it usually comes off, has anyone here has any idea or experienced this problem before?.   Thanks so much.

Replying to: rfreitas (Nov 07, 2008 12:39 pm) I think faster than actual mileage odometers were installed to some Honda models. There's a law suit re this and I think Honda extends extra 5,000 miles in warranty due to this.
#865 of 1285 "TRANSMISSION FLUID FILTER" by inshan Nov 08, 2008 (5:47 pm)
Hi everyone,                 I'm just curious if anyone here ever replaces their transmission fluid filter when changing the fluid? The Honda dealership says they doesn't change the filter but with so much transmission failures I'm just wondering if it might be a good idea to request the filter to be change during my next service. Thank you. Replies to this message: car_guy_61 (Nov 11, 2008 11:58 am) MrDavis (Nov 30, 2008 10:08 am)
#866 of 1285 Possible transmission failures on 2008/2009 models? by yak33 Nov 09, 2008 (9:18 pm)
Has Honda correctly addressed the failure issues that seem to plague earlier models? Is the latest Odyssey transmission different than these earlier failure-bound versions? Like others here I was shocked to see how many failures have occurred, as the Odyssey consistently gets excellent reviews and reliability scores.   We just bought an August-built 2008 EX-L and am wondering if we're looking at a possible failure in the future.   FWIW, today I talked to a very good friend who works only on Japanese-based cars (and has for 30 years now) and told me he has yet to work on or investigate a failure-bound odyssey transmission. However, he mentioned other Honda models with a record of tranny failures, and also that it's his policy to change transmission oil and filter earlier than factory recommendations. (I'm the same way with all my vehicles too and have for years - imo cheap insurance).   If someone could enlighten me on this it would be appreciated.   yak33 Replies to this message: bobber1 (Nov 09, 2008 9:32 pm)

Replying to: yak33 (Nov 09, 2008 9:18 pm) Most of the problems you'll read about are the 99-04 models. Honda had a design flaw. Beginning in 07 they put the Ridgeline transmission in the Oddysey. Evidently it's a little more rugged design which has had few problems.   There's nothing wrong with changing fluids more often in my book, but I don't think you have much to worry about with your 08.   By the way, wise choice letting your wife make the call on van choices.

Replying to: inshan (Nov 08, 2008 5:47 pm) The Honda Odyssey doesn't have a transmission filter, that's why they recommend changing your fluid every 30,000 miles. Replies to this message: MrDavis (Nov 30, 2008 10:08 am)
#869 of 1285 Honda 2007 Odyssey Transmission replaced by scswanberg Nov 13, 2008 (12:04 pm)
Our 2007 Hoda Odyssey (one year old) has had lousy gas mileage since day one. Dealer kept obfuscating about 'break in' and 'your mileage may vary' (12-15 MPG?). Lately developed occassionally what sounded like a gas knock on steroids (nearly a growl). Went to dealer (Memphis TN) ... conclusion is they are replacing the entire transmission.   This is just FYI to folks reading this forum. Warranty replacement of the entire transmission after one year for a 2007 Honda Odyssey.     Replies to this message: nash1234 (Nov 13, 2008 12:19 pm)

Replying to: scswanberg (Nov 13, 2008 12:04 pm) Wow. How many miles do you have on your 2007? I also have a 2007 EX, and while I do not have issues with noise etc, my MPG is also terrible. Hope that's not indicative of a future issue.
#871 of 1285 transmission "upgrade" possible? by 2000glxstick Nov 13, 2008 (8:29 pm)
So I was wondering...what is required to upgrade an '05-'06 Odyssey EX to the '07+ transmission? I assume a new PCM?   Does anybody know if this is possible?   '07 transmission is part number 20021-R36-000 '05 transmission is part number 20021-RGR-A01 (which is itself a replacement for the original 20021-RGR-A00) '07 Ridgeline trans is 20021-RJF-T10 '07 Pilot trans is a 20021-PVL-050   None are available in the US except as remanufactured parts by the way.
#872 of 1285 Re: 2005 transmission needs replacement in only 43000 miles [2000glxstick] by jlindke Nov 15, 2008 (1:47 pm)
Replying to: 2000glxstick (Nov 06, 2008 7:20 pm) I have this same problem, the transmission shudders and shakes the car slightly when the car goes from 4th to 5th gear at low speeds, usually around 40mph. This problem is exacerbated when going over a slight incline or on a turn or anything that puts slightly more pressure on the engine/transmission during this shift. I have had it to the dealer 3 times and each time they jump in and go for a ride with me and it doesnt do it. I had the transmission oil changed which solved the problem for about 1000 miles then it came back. The car now has 68k miles on it and i am the original owner. This is my 5th new honda, my last was a 2002 odyssey. I thought these honda transmission problems were solved with the new 05 units. Mabye they are not, as i begin to seach on this problem it sounds like there are lots of folks that are starting to have this problem with 05 Odysseys. Im wondering if we will start seeing alot more of these transmission shudder problems as the 05 units start to get miles on them like mine. Im headed to the dealer again on Monday, hopefully it will do it this time when they drive it and honda will cover it. I would hate to think i would have to pony up for a new transmission on this new of a car that has had impeccable care. If so, this number 5 honda will be the last i ever buy, as I could have better luck with a just about any other brand.
