I've always heard that on a brand new engine you want to change the oil after about 600 miles. Then follow the normal pattern from then out. The manual on the...
My Odyssey manual says that the vehicle is supplied with oil with special additives and should not be changed until 7500 miles in normal running conditions. I...
Yes, this is what I was told also. I will change the oil at 7500, then every 3,000-3,500 after that. David ... [Non-text portions of this message have been...
... My salesman told me not to change the oil early because Honda uses special break-in addatives in the first fill. I don't believe that for a minute. I do...
Thanks to everyone for the feedback. I think I'll wait until 7500 for the first change (as recommended and consensus agreed) then maybe compromise between ...

Hi, I own a 2001 Odyssey....Have just 25,000 Km... Recently, When I was on a freeway, My van suddenly seemed to skid at over 90Kmph...( Just like it skids on...
sounds like you need a leather steering wheel cover and to work out the hand grip a little more. I keep little bottles of airplane liquor and just take one ...
At 90Kmph I'm suprised the metal on the outside of your van didn't turn white hot from air friction. In a message dated 1/3/2003 2:37:10 PM Eastern Standard...

I recently purchased a 1999 Odyssey - owner lost the manual. I am waiting for mine to come into the dealership but in the meantime need to do two things: -...
I have a 2002, so it may be different... The middle row seats have a metal loop underneath the seat for a car seat teather. The door opener procedure goes like...
This is the problem of a sound (like Fluid Quivering) resulting from the movement of the fuel inside the fuel tank especially when the tank is full of fuel...
This is a widely known issue. Due to the floor well for the magic seat, Honda had to make the fuel tank flatter and wider. This design causes lots of...
I was looking at the instructions for installation on hparts.com. It doesn't look too difficult to install. Has anyone installed these lights by themselves?...
After recently being told that my odyssey needs a new transmission, which is still under warranty, my question is whether to buy it out after the lease is up...
BUY! BUY! LOSS OF A TRANSMISSION IS A SURE SIGN THAT YOU'VE COVERED THE WORST PROBLEMS YOU COULD FACE AND THERE WON'T BE ANYTHING OTHER THAN ADDING AIR...

Hi, I have a new 2003 odyssey. I am frustrated that the reserve fuel light is coming on after 180 miles on what I think is a full tank. I have tried to...
Hey John: Welcome to the real Honda world. You can check numbers 2 & 3 off your list. Unlikely or not you are probably not getting anywhere near the mpg...
I have a 2002 Ody and it gets great gas mileage. While the worst I've gotten is about 16 (cold weather, short trips), I have gotten over the 25 MPG on the ...
John, The answer is number 3. The Honda low gas warning lamp comes on very early. In my 2002 Ody it comes on when the needle is a little above Empty. If I ...
John, I have a 2003 also. I totally agree with George Waters and gstoneburn. The light comes on very early. My husband usually figures the gas milage and we...
I have bought a 2003 Ody in Nov'02. I am experiencing the same problem though the mileage is not as bad as 15 ! From the measurements that i took, I think I am...
John, I also have an 03 Ody and love it. I have seen and read somewhere on an Odyssey web site that the reason the light comes on so soon is to keep the fule...
If this is true it's bad design and not an excuse. Honda should design the vehicle without risk of component failure just because I'm low on gas. ... ...

It's engineering tradeoffs. If you want a 3rd row magic seat that folds flush into floor, then you have to give up something. In this case you end up with a...
