The asking price reflects the high mileage, or so I believe.
Was it used to tow anything? Short trips/long trips?
Has the timing belt and water pump been replaced?
The seller tells me that it has been used mostly for long interstate trips (how else could anyone put 40k per year on a car?).
I had it inspected by my mechanic, and the only thing they could find was some play in the front stabalizer bars. The seller is paying to have that fixed before we close.
Thanks for posting. I obviously needed a reminder to check it.

Does anyone has a best bumper protector solution that (1) can hide existing center dings/dents and (2) provides future minor damages.

I have a 2008 Odyssey, bought new about 8 months ago. I have put only 2200 miles on it. The dashboard indicates 70% oil.
When should i get the first service?
Thanks,

I think I paid about $89 at the dealer to have it done on my 2005.

yea i am in that catch-22, oil shows 70%. i don't want the oil change to be that long. But long drives are hard with the infant.
Still debating if getting oil change is better than letting it rot..
Its 9 months today..maybe will change it next weekend..i am sure the dealer would insist on changing it
Anyone else face similar predicament in the past?
Any ideas? Has anyone tried anything or is there anything on the market that would cover the high plastic walls of the back trunk?
Thanks
The other cars that my family have/had are Toyota Camry and Nissan Sentra. Both Camry and Sentra are pretty clean and oil level are pretty full for each oil change. So this is a big surprise to me. Do I need to worry?
By the way, our dealer says it's normal. I also called HondaUSA and they refuse to give me an answer and ask me to ask dealer.

I usually change my oil when it gets to 10% and sometimes even 15%. You could have changed it 1000 miles ago. I also check my oil level at every other tank full of gas and, if it goes below the low mark I add some oil.
I do all this maintenance my self because I don't trust my expensive cars to an absent minded 20 year old know it all. But that's just me.
Try to get a new engine under the warranty after you run it out of oil!
Back in the 70's Chrysler used to let their executives drive new cars for a few months and then sell them as new. But they got caught and I don't think that goes on these days, with Honda anyway.

Thank you!

Anyway, question is, can we turn somewhere for any sort of warranty support on the tires and batterries? Also, should we just sell this and cut our losses and never buy a mini-van again - because seems like there could be many more things that we have not been "blessed' with yet, such as transmission, sliding door and dvd player issues.
Thanks in advance to all for your advice.
Good grief, what are you doing, driving on lava??
What happened to each of these sets of tires that they needed replacing? Were they worn down? Or unevenly worn? If the latter is the case you should have checked alignment-type issues, b/c that's probably what was ruining your tires.
What is the 'front window motor'?? My front window doesn't move in any way, shape, or form...
I suppose every forum member has a first post, but this person's was yesterday so I'm thinking troll.
However, when my wife drove the car out, she found that it how HAS the "jugging"problem it didn't have and which the PCM upgrade was supposed to "fix." At 30-40 mph, if I slow down, and then get back on the gas, the car intermittently shudders and hops.
Dealer says (in a basic crayon level explanation that doesn't fully describe the issue) - transmission PCM was running original software and is now running software with upgrade. But torque converter is still running original version and they're not talking to each other quite properly. Claiming that software upgrades cannot be removed or reversed once installed, they have ordered a new torque converter for the car. It took them 4 hours of time, including a call to tech-line at Honda, to diagnose the problem.
However, I have a problem with a software upgrade that damages hardware enough to require a replacement after only 40 miles. Moreover, I was unaware (and may admittedly be naive) that there is even any software or computer controls IN the torque converter. Something just doesn't make sense to me at an instinctive level. What I fear, is another day without my vehicle and an annoyed wife, and still no solution to the problem they created.
Anyone else had this problem or tried this fix if you did? All knowledgeable feedback would be welcome b/c I'm really lost on this one. If anyone has a TSB or other literature I could show the dealer, that would also be helpful.
Thanks!

There is a TSB 09-053 from Honda that addresses this problem. http://www.in.honda.com/Rjanisis/pubs/SB/A09-053.PDF
My Ody has 39K miles and interestingly enough my dealer told me today that according to Honda's record my vehicle had the "new" software installed recently. I told the dealer we had never brought this vehicle in for any service visit at any time to any Honda dealer. My wife thinks that some unscrupulous dealer must have filed a bogus warranty claim for the software update. Bizzare.
Thanks for this info. It really floored me that the dealer took 4 hours to diagnose a TSB issue that should be readily apparent in ten minutes. This is not the 1st time this has happened with this car and/or this dealership.
Did you have the PCM update already? If so, did you have the stumbling problem before the PCM update or only after, like me? Just curious.
Again - thanks! :shades:
Did you get any recall or update notices from Honda?
