#157 of 162 Re: 2007 Odyssey Vibration - Worse with Update [dnicola] by dnicola Nov 06, 2009 (7:38 am)
Replying to: dnicola (Oct 08, 2009 7:30 am) It has been two weeks with a new torque converter, and I have experienced no shuddering. The van seems to be running like new! Replies to this message: bman344 (Nov 21, 2009 8:22 am) claim5 (Nov 22, 2009 11:14 am)
#158 of 162 If you are not under Warrenty by commercialguy Nov 06, 2009 (7:50 am)
Congrats. for those of us not under warrenty they may want to at least try what I did and use the Shudder Stop after flushing their Trans.
#159 of 162 I've heard of Dr. Tranny's Shudder Fix by claim5 Nov 06, 2009 (8:41 am)
Used on older auto trans to stop the sticking between gears that caused their shuddering. Don't know if it would help an Odyssey trans, but is a heckuva lot cheaper than having the shop open up the trans. Gunk and several other brands are available at most parts stores.   Just make sure it doesn't cause an overfill of the trans fluid, and I would highly recommend having a shop flush and refill, adding the shudder fix if that's the route you wish to take. I'd probably have done that if mine wasn't under warranty.   My 07 is one week back on the road and still running like new, post new torque converter.
#160 of 162 05 Odyssey torque converter/motor mount problems by redflag1 Nov 08, 2009 (9:58 am)
Dealer quoted $2700 for parts and labor to fix my 2005 Honda Odyssey EX-L with rear motor mount and torque converter problems. I located Genuine parts on-line for 1/2 the dealer cost. Looking for quality mechanic in Minneapolis MN area. Please help. Thanks

Replying to: dnicola (Nov 06, 2009 7:38 am) All - I have a 2007 EX that has been experiencing the vibration for the past four months. I took it to the dealer in August, but they said they didn't feel it. I took it back yesterday, and the Service Mgr told me they needed to replace the torque converter. In his conversation, he stated it would take the better part of 1.5 days, based on previous jobs. That led to search whether others have had this problem. For all those who have replaced torque converters, does this seem to be "the fix"?   BTW - he did admit they have had to do several of these... Replies to this message: claim5 (Nov 22, 2009 11:14 am)

Replying to: bman344 (Nov 21, 2009 8:22 am) Yup, had mine replaced recently under warranty and it does clear up the shakes rather nicely. My 07 is still running smoothly.   Apparently this is a much more common problem than Honda will admit to the public. They're fixing all of them that report the vibrations, and had (when mine was done) a shortage of replacement torque converters. Honda should issue a recall but won't, it would blemish their reliability record. It took my dealer several days to get the part, and the better part of two days to fix it. They also have to remove some of the front suspension to get to it so the job includes a total alignment when done.
