1995 Honda Odyssey Ex Mini Passenger Van 5-door 2.2l on 2040-cars
Lawrenceville, Georgia, United States
|
Up for bids is a 1995 Honda Odyssey van. We bought this van used in 1998 with about 35,000 miles on it. Always garage kept, all services performed as scheduled, timing belt at 240,000 miles, oil changed every 3,000 miles (up untill I started using synthetic oil about a year ago...then every 5,000 miles), ATF changed every 10,000 miles. I work at a Honda dealership in the parts department, so only Honda parts have been installed since I have owned this van. What I couldn't do myself mechanically, one of our technicians did the work. Accessories include am-fm-cassette deck with single cd player, roof rack with cross bars, Honda carpet floor mats, splash guards, middle seat under-seat storage drawers for the kids' toys and small items, center console storeage bin, and rear bumper protector. AC blows ice cold, everything on this van works. Recent repairs include new front upper control arms, front struts, rear shocks, front brake pads, and a new head gasket. Still gets well over 22 MPG around town, almost 30 MPG on the highway. Engine still runs great, transmission shifts like it should, and all engine & transmission mounts are tight. The bad news...the SRS light came on about the time I decided to sell this van when we bought our newer Odyssey (I wonder if she knew something was up). The SRS unit needs to be replaced (you can find one used for about $50.00 - $100.00). The ABS light sometimes comes on, stays on for a while, then goes off. This has been occuring since about 1999 and I just never got around to fixing it. I don't know if it's the accumulator, modulator, or one of the wheel sensors. A deer ran into me back in 1999? at the left front of the van (see pics). The lights weren't damaged, so I never bothered to get the work done. The backlight for the radio display and AC control is out, but still displays in daylight. These are minor annoyances that don't affect the way the van performs. That's about it. This van has taken us on vacation every year since we bought it, and has proven to be super reliable (like all the 95-98 Odysseys). She has survived 3 kids and has held up great! My wife wanted a newer van, so this one has to go. Check out the KBB website for values on this van. I am starting the bidding about where I expect it will sell for, considering the SRS and ABS lights on and the very minor body damge. I live in the Grayson area of GA and work in Buford, GA. You can call me to arrange a test drive at (404) 944-0385. Leave a message if I don't answer. |

Japanese automakers ramping production for renewed American sales
Wed, 21 Nov 2012The 2011 earthquake and tsunami that struck Japan took quite the toll on the automotive industry in that nation. Not content to lean on that tragedy as excuse for slagging sales, the Japanese automakers are planning on a major production expansion in North America. The aim is to reclaim the market share lost from the Tsunami-based dip, and overcome a dollar/yen exchange rate that makes exporting to America unprofitable.
Following the Tsunami, Japanese automakers ramped up production in their North American facilities to compensate, but according to Automotive News, Nissan, Honda and others have all reported plans for still-further increased production in the year ahead. As part of this ramp-up, Mazda will open a facility in Salamnca, Mexico before March of 2014. Part of that increase in output is 50,000 units of a Toyota-badged compact car, which Mazda will produce.
Other Mexican production facilities opening include a Honda plant, which will open in Spring 2014 in Celaya, and a Nissan plant, set to open later this year in Aguascalientes. Nissan also said that it will need another plant in North America within the next five years. According to Nissan Boss Carlos Ghosn, the company aims to raise its stake in the US market from 8 percent to 10, and adding production will help achieve that goal. Even Mitsubishi is aiming to boost production at its Normal, Illinois plant. Production of the Outlander Sport is currently at 50,000, which Mitsubishi wants to raise to 70,000.
Analysts say Honda's growing woes in Europe not just the economy
Tue, 12 Feb 2013There is no denying that the European auto market is taking its lumps right now - just ask Peugeot - but Honda might be taking this downturn on the chin a little harder than some of the other Japanese automakers doing business on the continent. Automotive News Europe is reporting that things have gotten so bad for Honda that it will be cutting 800 workers from Swindon, England plant that builds the CR-V, Civic and Jazz (a.k.a. Fit). This will be the first time Honda has made such cuts in more than 20 years.
Despite an increase in output last year over 2011 (165,607 units compared to 97,459), the Swindon plant is still running well below its full capacity (250,000/year), and its 66 percent capacity is less than the expected breakeven point of industry analysts (75 to 80 percent). Unlike in the US, however, Honda's new CR-V and Civic aren't selling well, and the similarly sized Nissan Qashqai is outselling the CR-V at a rate of more than five to one. Slow CR-V sales are blamed on a relatively high price and the crossover's conservative styling. On the complete opposite side of the spectrum, the report notes that Nissan continues to experience growth at its UK operations, leading analysts to suggest that Honda can't blame the sour economy for much of its woes.
Honda reveals Mobilio MPV, Brio Satya hatchback for Asian markets
Thu, 19 Sep 2013Sometimes, vehicles developed for mainstream markets don't work as well in emerging markets due to a lack of infrastructure for which they were originally designed. Indonesia is one of those environs where vehicles that are low, long and wide struggle cover the country's often rough terrain, let alone fit into the nation's compact parking spaces. Taking this into account, Honda has been developing the Mobilio multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), which it teased in July, based on research conducted on the country's roads and weather conditions. Today the Japanese automaker unveiled a prototype of the MPV at the Indonesia International Motor Show.
The Mobilio has three rows of seating for seven occupants, is compact enough to fit into the country's parking spaces, which are often less than 14.4 feet in length, and has a sports utility vehicle-like ground clearance of 7.3 inches to handle most road conditions. It's equipped with a 1.5-liter i-VTEC four-cylinder engine, which should give the MPV good fuel economy.
On September 11, Honda also introduced the Brio Satya five-door hatchback (shown at right) for the Indonesian market, which features an i-VTEC four-cylinder engine that Honda says will help the car net a fuel economy rating of 20 kilometers per liter of gasoline (equivalent to 47 miles per gallon). The model is closely related to the Brio budget hatchback, which was first revealed back in 2011.
