#63 of 99 reving '03 odyssey by huston1 May 03, 2008 (6:28 am)
Have an '03 odyssey w/77,000 mi. Had power steering connection replace 3mo. ago that fixed the idle revs. However, it revs slightly while driving at 30-50mph. Any ideas? Replies to this message: dang_tri (May 03, 2008 4:40 pm)

Replying to: huston1 (May 03, 2008 6:28 am) I have my Idle Air Control Valve replaced on my 04 Odyssey and it didn't fix the problem. It still revs up and down in drive gear (not at Park or Neutral) between 700 and 1000 rpm when stopped at traffic light. The amazing thing is that it doesn't happen all the times. My coolant level is right. I checked my Power Steering Switch wire, it is fine. I don't know what to do now. It drives fine at high speed. I need help desperately. I am thinking trading it in for Toyota Sienna. Can anyone give me a good tip how fix this problem?

They told me that some of the 06s had dirty power steering lines which messed up the power steering fluid which ruined the power steering pump. They replaced the pump and flushed the lines and it has been working great since. no noise

#67 of 99 2005 Odyssey EX Engine Noise by arl12317 Aug 11, 2008 (5:56 pm)
2 days ago after a 300-mile drive that was perfect, after stopping the van for about an hour, then starting up again heard a dull tapping/knocking noise.   The closest I can describe the sound is like the sound helicopter off in the distance. Opening the hood, I could almost replicate the sound by tapping on the plastic engine shroud with my fingertips (not my nails).   The sound occurs whether standing still or moving, and whether the fan is running or not. It speeds up with light revs. Once you get 'under way,' the sound disappears and the car ran effortlessly and quietly for the 300 mile return trip home.   Took it into the dealer this morning. They heard it, want to take it in an look it over, but they admit they are unfamilier with the noise.   Car has 38,000 miles -- just out of warranty -- This car has been driven gently by my wife all its life and has been meticulously maintained at the dealer.   Anybody with a similar noise?

Replying to: pingpingping (Feb 28, 2008 12:58 pm) I took my 07 odyssey back to the dealer today for inspection. I had the service mgr. take a ride with me and I drove him around untill he had to admit that he hears the pining. It was like a game of cat and mouse. I could hear it, he said he didn't untill I just about parked it in a underpass and the ping was very audible. I told him that I had blogged with several people in the same boat, and he still wouldnt admit that there is a problem with the 07 odyssey. I also told him that I am worried about the engine failing once the 36k mile warranty was up. He then said that he would double my warranty and make it good for 75k miles. He knows there is a problem, but he wont come clean. Why would he I guess. He also told me that his factory rep will be in next month, and he would let me talk to him, and "maybe he could do something more for me". I am not holding my breath, but I would love to talk to him. Replies to this message: geologist (Aug 15, 2008 4:32 pm) youngers (Sep 30, 2008 10:51 am)

Replying to: pingy (Aug 15, 2008 11:40 am) we have our 15K service in about 2 weeks, I am bypassing the service manager and going to the dealer owner before I turn the car in for maintenance. I'm at my wits end with the problem. We've had the heat shield replaced, plus the service manager claims he can't hear the problem, we've ridden with the district rep. and that didn't get anywhere. He just basically said, even if there is a problem, the car is under warranty.... our tranmission makes a low growl noise at <1800RPM, when not under full power. good luck!

Replying to: geologist (Aug 15, 2008 4:32 pm) I have the same weird and annoying idle problem with my 2004 Odyssey. I have almost 93,000 miles on it. I think I may just trade it in before I hit 100,000 miles rather than address the revving problem.

Replying to: dang_tri (Apr 12, 2008 6:52 pm) I have an Odyssey 2008 -lease. Had it about eight months. About 3 months ago it would do the same thing. Went up to 2000 and came down. A bit scary but I disregarded it. Last week, it went up to 3000rpm - car was hard to control but it settled down. Drove that evening and the car started to race so much as I was coming to a stop. I looked down and the rpm was at 5000. Couldn't stop the car and I was afraid I was going to run someone down. I quickly put in park and shut it down. People on the street came running to get me out since they thought it would explode. Had it towed to the dealership. They kept it for three days, put 100 miles on it and couldn't find a thing. I've driven it for a bit but I really am scared. Guy was really nice but said he couldn't find anything wrong. Don't know what to do. Replies to this message: bigdadi118 (Feb 12, 2009 3:37 pm)
