    I own a 2011 Honda Pilot where the TSPM light comes on then it says system malfunction. Won't read the tire pressure for awhile but eventually restores itself. I assume it is because of the salt and extreme cold temps we are having in northeast PA. But that is not all of it, for the last few...

    Hello all, I am new to the forum and need advice, thoughts and solutions for a transmission issue. I recently replaced the transmission on my friends 2011 Honda Pilot FWD automatic trans. Very long story but I will spare the labor pains. The trans I installed was a low milage tested transmission...

    I'd like to clean my MAF sensor on 2009 Pilot, but not sure what to use. Is it OK to use compressed air; or do I need to use a purpose specific product such as the CRC MAF sensor cleaner spray? Thanks in advance.

    Hey folks, Just got an EXL with 89k miles, paid $13.5 in the SF Bay area. Really happy to have the space for second baby plus occasional in laws, major step up from my 2003 Element! Hoping the Pilot will last over 200k miles, and it will be tested with use in Central America. Hood and roof are...

    Hello! This is my first post on this site, I have a 2011 exl Pilot (no nav system) and I was wondering if anyone had any advice for preparing it for snowy weather? It’s got 4wd, but does it need winter specific tires or anything? I’m going off to college soon and it’s located in the Appalachian...

    Hey e'erbody, So, my exhaust is sounding pretty raspy and kinda like a tin can kazoo. A shop said it sounded like a bad flex pipe was the source of it, but when I got under my car with my friend stepping on the gas, it's definitely my resonator. Even when the car is off, I can shake it with...

    'lo all, So, I purchased and installed an s-vcm per the recommendation of some helpful people on the last post I made and that seemed to fix the problem almost immediately. I also replaced my pcv valve while I was already in there trying to get Pontius running like new again. He seemed good...

    Hey e'erbody, So, my shop, who I trust pretty well, just diagnosed a few issues I was having with my 2011. They found that a spark plug was all fouled up with oil because a seal or something must be damaged in my engine. They put a new one in and basically told me it will run okay for a...

    I went to my dealership last week to get a key cut for my Pilot. While I was there I had the transmission fluid changed because it hadn't been changed for around 40K miles. The technician did an inspection of my vehicle and found that the rear sway bar bushings needed to be replaced and the...

    I had my Pilot into the shop yesterday and apparently they unhooked the battery. When I got into my vehicle, the clock was displaying a time that is 4 hours and 7 minutes behind the actual time. I tried to go into the settings and change the time, but the clock does not change time. I know...

    When setting the valve lash for a 2011 Pilot, what should the jamb nut(s) be finally torqued to, once you have the clearance correctly set? (0.20mm to 024mm on an intake valve, and 0.28 to 0.32mm on an exhaust valve), and are "done" with adjusting that valve? (There are wonderful write-ups of...

    My 2011 Touring 4WD won’t start. No noises. I have checked the battery, starter, a few relays, and the ignition switch. The only thing left I can think of is the neutral safety switch. I bought a new one to replace and hope it works, however I cannot figure out its location. The only info I can...

    Hey Team, My 2011 Pilot Touring has been in and out of the shop for about 5 months now fighting back symptoms of an issue nobody can figure out. December, the Entertainment center went out and was replaced. January, the Parking sensor system started an intermittent yellow warning message...

    Hi all, new owner to an old (2011 lx) pilot. So far the resources here have been very helpful. I’m looking for help fixing/repairing/replacing the glass on the top display (mid?) of the center console displaying radio channel, ac info and temp. There is a super annoying crack in the plastic...

    Hi all! I have a 2011 Pilot EXL. The back lift gate/hatch supports aren’t lifting as much as they used to. This is nit a powered lift gate. I’m pretty tall. I’d love for the replacements I get to enable the gate to lift 4-6” higher than with OEM. I’d be killing two birds with one of stone. I...

    I have a 2011 EX-L (111k) and just installed new shocks and quick struts (first time doing any suspension work). Stabilizer links were also replaced as they ... resisted ... being disconnected. The first time I turn after it's been parked for a few hours, there is a single clunk. I believe...

    Last summer I planned to take The Gary on his first road trip adventure. Alas, it was not to be. While my wife and I did get to go on our Pacific Northwest adventure with our new pup, we had to do it in a rental car; my wife was rear-ended while driving The Gary the day before our trip. Our...

    I have a 2011 Pilot Touring. I have has it for a little over a year. In the past couple weeks the Air Conditioner has started acting up. It will blow cold for about 10 minutes from a cold start but after that the front air will start blowing hot (on both the driver side and the passenger...
