    Hey Piloteers! Been really enjoying learning from these threads. Thank y'all for sharing your Pilot knowledge and experiences. I'm a product/market researcher, and currently looking to learn more about the 2023/24 Honda Trailsport. If anyone is willing to chat with me about your experience...

    Does anybody know if the 2024 trailsport trim level has a transmission cooler? I read somewhere that it is not required with the new 10 speed transmission but I kinda think it would benefit from it. My trailer is a Nucamp Tab 400 that has a wet weight of about 3100 lbs. Does anyone here have...

    I’m considering a change from my ‘22 Ridgeline BE to the ‘24 Pilot Trailsport edition. The horsepower (285), torque (262) and tow capacity (5000) of the two vehicles are the same. The RL has a tongue weight of 600 lbs but I can’t find that number for the Pilot. My trailer comes in at just over...

    I had a really hard time finding out how the new pilot would perform with towing a heavy load up the hill and it lacks a dedicated transmission cooler that the 3rd generation had. I towed a 4500lb but up 2000 vertical feet. It’s around 6-8% grade for 20 min. The 2023 Honda pilot performed very...

    What is the best drive mode for wet slippery steep paved boat ramps when retrieving the boat? Trail/Mud/snow/normal/tow/luck some other combo? Going to be pulling out about 3000lb 19 foot bowrider.

    T-one 4 pole wiring harness and bracket. Had it mounted for 6 months then swapped it out for a 7 pole. It's been in the garage since. Got it from e trailer. It was on my 2017 so it should fit similar models. Use the link to confirm. Part number 118760. $40obo. I'm in the Tampa area and can meet...

    First time poster here with my 2011 EX, and just realized my 2nd gen's towing package doesn't have a wiring harness! There's a cutout in the trim for one, but nothing behind it. Has anyone else run into this and can recommend whether to DIY it or have a shop do it? I

    I will be moving to the state of Washington this spring and driving my beloved 2006 Pilot with 185 k on it starting from Scranton, Pennsylvania. And I am so wanting to pull my Four Winns Horizon 180 (3300 lbs. including trailer) with me. Both boat and car are worth more to me than what...

    Hi all, I'm a newbie here and we've been looking recently at trailers, trying hard to keep within specs for our 2016 AWD Pilot. We've had the factory trailer hitch installed along with an ATF cooler so Honda specs are 5000 GVWR / 500 hitch weight. The Airstream 19' is nice in that it's 3650lb...

    Hello, Got a 2018 Pilot Touring June 1. Had towing package installed to tow my Coleman camper (~3500lbs). Mid July had error code for engine and took in to dealer to have fuel injectors replaced (recall). Dealer has auto alignment sensors on floor as you enter the bay. So this car went over...

    We received an transmission over heating message while pulling a utility trailer that was bo where near 5000 lbs. The dealer said we needed a cooler, why do they say it can tow 5000 if it has to br modified to do so?

    I just joined this forum. I'm considering a 2016 Pilot Touring at Carmax. I currently have a 2016 CR-V, but am awaiting a fiberglass camper trailer that is being manufactured - it has a dry weight of 1,100 lbs. I am running into problems with technicians not wanting to hard wire a CR-V and...

    Hi, I have had no issue towing my 18-foot sailboat behind my 2011 EX 4WD. It is well below the 4500 lbs limit. I barely notice it is there (aside for the noises it makes that is). I am looking to upgrade my boat which would put me very close or right at the limit. Does anyone know if there is a...

    Hello, I am the proud owner of a new 2022 EX-L! I had a beautiful 2020 EX-L (6AT) but last month an Inexperienced, 5 Weeks licenced, driver thought they could cross main street traffic withouth checking. I t-boned her passenger side and all our Airbags deployed. My 1st collision ever, since...

    Anyone have experience pulling 5000 pound boat/trailer with a 2WD Pilot? I’m not looking to tow very far, just 2 miles from storage to the ramp. Any trouble on the ramp? Thanks

    Trying to decipher the tow package options for our newly purchased 2021 Pilot Black edition. We ordered the 5000lb package through the dealer but can't get a straight answer as to what all is included. We've been told by the dealer we purchased from (after several discussions between sales and...
  17. 2003-2008 Pilot
    I am thinking of buying a 2008 - 2010 Pilot to pull a converted cargo trailer.I have seen lots of references to “towing packages” but can’t figure out whether there is also something that needs to go in under the hood ( a”cooler”?) in order to beef up the towing capacity, and what the capacity...

    Did anyone have a similar issue they were able to fix? We have an issue with our 2017 Honda Pilot AWD having a shimmy only when towing. It occurs from 60 to 80 MPH (that is the fastest speed I tried) but that is as fast as I have tried. It does not appear to be speed dependent as it occurs...

    I am a traveling Respiratory Therapist. I was going to add a towing set up but a 22 ft Minnie Winnie deal fell into my lap. So now I am having to add a towing package sooner than later. I am getting confused about what I need. My thought is to buy Honda parts for what I can then get the rest of...

    I'm looking for the better solution (I don't care the price if the solution is good) to upgrade my 2016 Pilot to do off road. The biggest concern with 3rd gen Pilot is ground clearance. I know that I can put bigger tires but, at best, it will only provide 1 more inch clearance. Also, I'm towing...
