#77 of 86 Re: 2007 thumping noise [lep4] by rezilient Oct 28, 2009 (8:03 am)
Replying to: lep4 (Jul 09, 2009 9:41 am) Hello. I have this same problem on my 2006 EX that we just bought used. The "thump" sound occurs after breaking almost as if something is hanging loose below the vehicle and "swinging" and hitting the underside.   It is sometimes very faint, but sometimes is louder if we brake harder. There is always a slight delay, for example you break and then 1 second later you hear the thump.   The answer from Carmax (where we bought the car) is that its fuel sloshing in the tank. This seems to make sense, so my test will be to let the tank run pretty low and see if the sound disappears when there is not much fuel left.   I'll let you know how it goes.
#78 of 86 Fog horn like noise from 2006 Honda Pilot by letat Oct 30, 2009 (6:06 pm)
My 2006 Honda Pilot makes this fog horn like sound when the engine is running. Noise occurs at random and at various speed. The noise stops when the engine is turned off and does not resume. Took to the dealer who said it might be the brakes, but noise happens when car is not moving. Took to the mechanic at local gas station, he heard noise and was stumped. Brought car back, could not replicate noise. Said he looked at computer codes and service bulletins and could find nothing. I am getting concerned because noise is happening more frequently. Don't know what to do. Don't want to go back to dealer unless I can point to something specific. Help

Replying to: tacoma50 (Oct 06, 2009 6:18 am) Has the windshield on your Pilot been replaced?   RE: I hear a similar gurgling sound while driving in the rain on my 2003 Pilot after having the windshield replaced by a Honda dealership. I suspect the windshield molding was not installed correctly. The molding has undulations that appear to have been caused by heating during the installation.

#81 of 86 Honda Pilot loud bang backing up by krs67 Nov 13, 2009 (2:41 pm)
My 2003 Pilot makes a very loud bang sound when I am backing up. It doesn't seem to happen backing up on flat surfaces (ie a parking lot); but if I back up my elevated driveway it happens every time.   I have taken it in to the dealer at least three times and they can always replicate the noise but have no answers. Has anyone experienced this? Any diagnostics?
#82 of 86 08 Pilot Water Gurggle by windshield by illini2 Nov 25, 2009 (7:28 am)
I have an 08 Pilot SE and every time it rains (a little or a lot) or even a car wash, the passenger side by the windshield on the bottom corner is where I hear water gurgling around when I drive. Sounds like the water is trying to move up the beam to escape. I've brought it in several times for the dealer to check and they check the drain holes and they are clear, they do not know why it is making that sound. They also have one other customer with the same issue. There are no bulletins out there as well. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?? Thanks Replies to this message: tacoma50 (Nov 30, 2009 9:03 am)

Replying to: tacoma50 (Nov 12, 2009 6:08 am) I spoke with the previous owner, and the windshield was never replaced.

Replying to: illini2 (Nov 25, 2009 7:28 am) Hi Illini2, You will see in my post titled: (#75 of 83 Water gurgling sound in roof area 08 Honda Pilot EXL by tacoma50 Oct 06, 2009) that I am having the same problem as you. My Honda dealer was also unable to find the source of the problem. The dealer also said they called Honda Corp and they have never heard of this issue before, therefore there is nothing else they can do. But there is strength in numbers, so maybe if share our contact info, we could prove to Honda that this is not an isolated incident. I will try sending you a message thru carspace.com. I think if you log into your carspace.com account and then go to the main page at: http://www.carspace.com/ you will see a TOOLBOX on your right. Inside the TOOLBOX you will see a MY CARSPACE MAILBOX, see if there is a message from me. If that does not work maybe you could just post the name and town of your Honda dealer(carspace does not allow posting phone #s) and I could call them.
#86 of 86 Humming sound by zdogs Dec 01, 2009 (7:49 am)
I have an '09 EX and was planning to take it in yesterday for it's first dealer service (indicator came on at about 5,800 miles). When I started driving to work yesterday I noticed a faint humming sound and thought how lucky it was that I was going in for service today. They checked it out and told me that my hearing was good because indeed there was a humming sound - front right wheel bearing was going bad. They replaced it and now it's good to go. I realize even Hondas can have some things go wrong early on, but I hope this isn't a sign of things to come...
