  1. 2016-2022 Pilot
    Hello all, I just ordered a SVCM off of CampingRandy Store and I’m really excited to give it a try. I’ve always felt like my 16 Pilot downshifted too hard. So I did lots of research and read that the SVCM disables the VCM and allows it to run on all 6 cylinders rather then 3 and runs a lot...

    I never made an official "goodbye" post - so here's my reflection post. I sold Princess in 2018. I miss her dearly but the transmission died for the 3rd time in 3 years and I was over it. They were going to charge another 5k to put another refurbished one in and I didn't want to roll the dice...

    Please bear with me as I am a newbie. My pilot did not come with hitch, but I recently had one put in by Honda. They couldn’t offer me a brake controller, so I didn’t think anything of it. Is there a chance that it is wired for one and wouldn’t be hard for me to add it Myself? Or should I assume...

    Hi all, Newbie to the forum, hoping to engage with the community. We are looking a 2nd car and have zeroed in on a used 2019+ Pilot or the Passport AWD. We anticipate to hold the car for about 5yrs and drive about 8-10k miles every year. We also have an 2016 Accord, but our goals for this one...

    Hello, Hope you all doing well. I'm considering a 2019 used Pilot. The only concern is white residues on hood liner. The dealer told me it's water entered the liner and it's relatively "normal" for used Pilots. I'd like to know if there are similar situations in your cars? I looked up...

    Hello, I have a 2011 pilot with 161k miles. I recently changed my engine oil and now whenever I leave early in the morning on cold mornings, pretty much every morning since I changed the oil, my car pulls a cel with p3497 code and the vtm-4 light comes on and the pilot rides rough… then if I...

    Hi all, We have a 2009 Honda pilot EX-L. We just recently encountered a problem where even though the trunk is fully closed, the trunk sensor in the dash shows that it is still open and all the dome lights still stay on. This has also caused the car to not be remotely lock as it still shows...

    Hi everyone. I have an 03 with 235,000 miles. Recently it occasionally started downshifting violently. Most notablily if I let off the gas around 60mph the rpms shoot up and the car lurches hard. It feels like it missing a gear on the downshift. I changed the trans fluid and saw nothing unusual...

    Hello, new to the forum. Chasing a pesky EVAP leak. Replaced Gas cap, canister, valve, and smoke test showed no leaks. Get the check cap light. When the tank is above 3/4, I get a P145C CEL. Today I noticed that the gasket on the new gas cap is compressed—dented where it presses against the fuel...

    This post features several 4x4 and AWD vehicles making passes on a purpose built offroad obstacle course. The more it rains the slicker the course gets! Check it out to see how the Pilot does! Let me know if you were surprised?

    This video concludes our AWDFEST 2023 Series. I was really impressed with all of the AWD rigs! Not bad for a mom van :)

    I just bought a used 2017 Honda Pilot, Touring model. I would like to install a Rockville 8" powered Sub. I was quoted $350 by a local car stereo shop. I think it is steep and want to do it myself. I am no expert but I have installed a stereo and speakers in my previous Buick Enclave. I am...
  14. 2009-2011 Pilot
    So, upon leaving to work today, I noticed that my wife's Pilot is leaning more to the right side than the left (front right passenger side), like as if it had a flat, but it doesn't. Could this be a suspension issue? Bad shock or somethin' like that, that would cause it to be imbalanced lookin'...

    My power steering line was leaking like a sieve. Luckily this repair was pretty straight forward due to my subframe drop! If you don't have a subframe drop you could also put the vehicle on jack stands and lower the subframe to replace the power steering line this way.
  16. 2009-2011 Pilot
    Good evening, I attempted to go after the PCV valve on my 2011 Pilot after replacing all my spark plugs. Worst of luck like many on the forum was that after removing the 10mm bolt and attempting to gently wedge a flat head screwdriver between the head of the PCV valve and the the casing of...

    It used to work just fine. But for a about 2 months for no reason the garage door goes down, hits the floor and comes up again. It doesnt happen if it closed from the wall button or from other cars (Subau Outback and Toyota Sienna). I tried changing door sensors to no effect and cleared and...

    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...
