Blcok heater vs in line hose heater - Honda Pilot

Greg32 · 10-12-2008, 08:05 PM

Brand new (to me) is an '05 EXL RES being imported to Canada. Only 20,000 miles on it!
I have never owned a Honda before; could anyone give any advice as to whether a block heater is suffice for northern Canadian winters or is there enough room for someone to install an in-line hose heater to keep the upper engine warm as well. I think I prefer the in-line method, but I've never had my nose under the hood to check out the degree of difficulty.
Thanks

A block heater will suffice. I've never known anyone whos had a in line hose heater, and never heard of one either.
