The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:""The van shows normal wear and tear for its age. It has a dent on the passenger side sliding door. Please examine pictures because what you see is what you get. The hood has a few rock chips in it. There is a small rust spot in the plate area of the hatch and some minor rust around the rear right wheel well. Also if you look at the front windshield there is a crack that runs across the bottom but there is no leaking (See pictures). It was purchased this way several years ago and it has been fine. A new front windshield can be installed for around $200 if you do your homework. The transmission needs replacement or work (See description of issue below) and new front brake rotors, pads, wheel bearings. The passenger side sliding door handle needs to be installed. If you are a mechanic this may be your lucky day.""

2000 Honda Odyssey LX. No reserve. Transmission needs work. The van is in Mt. Pleasant Michigan. Buyer must make arrangements for pickup and transportation of the vehicle. Please make arrangements through me if you wish to see the car. The vehicle is at my parents' house.

I am selling my 2000 Honda Odyssey LX to the highest bidder. I purchased the van from the original owner. The odometer reads 131,700. I used the vehicle for freeway driving between Michigan and Ohio. It has 17 inch wheels and tires with 10,000 miles on tires. I also installed a new stereo just prior to moving. USB inputs and a CD player are included.

When I moved out of Michigan 10 months ago the van was put in storage.

Routine maintenance is all up to date. When my father went to start the van it started without any hesitation. Proper procedures were followed to protect the engine while vehicle was in storage.

The front rotors, pads and bearings need replacing. The replacement of bearings and brakes can be performed at the same time which will reduce labor costs if you plan to have the work done by someone else.

Also the driver's side exterior sliding door needs replacing (See picture). This requires removal of the inside sliding door panel. I replaced the passenger side one about a year ago and it took less than 30 minutes. A new door handle will be included with van.

I had planned to do this work myself and will include the following new parts with van purchase:

1. Two new front wheel bearings,

2. New pads and rotors for front wheels.

3. New rear driver's side sliding exterior door handle

The van shows normal wear and tear for its age. It has a dent on the passenger side sliding door. Please examine pictures closely. What you see is what you get. These pictures were taken yesterday. The hood has a few rock chips in it. Also if you look at the front windshield there is a crack that runs across the bottom. It does not obstruct the line of sight and does not leak. This occured several years ago and it has been fine. A new front windshield can be purchased and installed for around $200 if you do your homework.

The transmission fluid has been changed 4 times or every 15000 miles since I purchased the vehicle. At approximately 120000 the transmission began to "bang" when put in drive. Through my investigation on the internet I learned this is a common problem for the Honda Odyssey. I assumed I would eventually be replacing the transmission but because this was not the vehicle I used for daily commuting, I planned to drive it until the transmission died. I mainly used the vehicle for freeway trips and had been manually shifting the gears to reduce the severity of the "bang." Once on the freeway I would leave it in overdrive.

If there is a transmission expert out there it may be a simple fix, but with all the information on line regarding Honda Odyssey transmissions it seems that replacement is the only sure way to take care of the transmission issue. There are two very highly rated transmission shops listed on ebay who charge around $1200 for a warrantied rebuilt transmission. I had planned to do the work myself but that day never came as it still can be driven the way I described above. My current transmission never overheated that I am aware of, and the van has not been used to tow a trailer. It is recommended that when replaced, an external transmission filter and a transmission cooler be installed. These can be purchased for under $50 each.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask prior to auction end. Thanks for looking.

Honda settles class-action lawsuit over oil-burning V6s

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

Although we hadn't heard of this issue before, Automotive News reports that Honda has agreed to settle a massive class-action lawsuit brought against it for engine trouble potentially affecting nearly 1.6 million vehicles. The lawsuit includes Accord (2008-12), Odyssey (2008-13), Pilot (2009-13) and Crosstour (2010-13) models equipped with the 3.5-liter V6 with Variable Cylinder Management, which might experience engine misfire, excessive oil burning and premature spark plug fouling issues.
As part of the settlement, Honda will extend the powertrain warranty on these models for eight years (from time of purchase or lease) with no mileage limitation, and it will also reimburse customers who had to pay out-of-pocket expenses for related repairs such as spark plugs, pistons or, in some cases, apparently, an entirely new engine. (Of course, the repairs had to be related to certain trouble codes.) Lawyers will get no more than $800,000 from Honda and the guy who originally started the case, Vince Eagen, will get $1,000 for his "time and effort."
The final ruling on the matter will take place on March 21, 2014, and if you want to see if you're affected and what options you have in the settlement, check out this .pdf document with all the details.

Honda reveals new Civic hatch for WTCC

Tue, 03 Dec 2013

If you thought the Honda Civic Type R prototype we drove in Japan looked cool, and that the Civic Tourer that Honda will race in the British Touring Car Championship next year looks even cooler, just take a look at this.
Possibly the ultimate race-spec Civic, this is the car Honda will field next year in the World Touring Car Championship. Like the Type R prototype (but unlike the BTCC-spec wagon) the WTCC challenger takes the form of Honda's latest Euro-spec Civic five-door hatchback.
It's the car with which Honda intends to defend its title and capture the driver's title in next year's championship. It'll face a tough challenge from the new Citroën team headlined by Sebastien Loeb in the new C-Elysee, not to mention the rest of the grid. Fortunately, Honda is entering a whole mess of these Civics in the series, with former champion Gabriele Tarquini and former F1 driver Tiago Monteiro driving the works entries (hence the mixed "Gabriago" tag on the window) and another pair to be entered by privateer teams.

Honda to power new Formula Lites open-wheel racing series

Sun, 18 May 2014

Open-wheel racing is almost always incredibly exciting to watch, whether it's the constant passing of the Indy 500 on an oval or the technological tour-de-force from Formula 1. However, both of those disciplines are essentially impossible for a normal person to enter. Of course, there are already cheaper, more amateur-friendly open-wheel competitions, like Formula Vee. A new SCCA Pro Racing series called Formula Lites aims to be a step in the ladder between those, offering a development opportunity to young drivers who want to be professionals.
The series already has some impressive backers. One of the biggest needs is now filled, as Honda has signed on as the engine supplier. All of the cars in Formula Lites will use the company's K24 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. The automaker didn't specify power output for the competition engine, but in production models the K24 has made in the neighborhood of 190-200 horsepower in many applications. That should make the racers plenty potent.
All of the cars are using the new carbon fiber FL15 chassis from Crawford Composites, and Pirelli is the series' tire supplier. The organizers' goal for the cars is to keep racing costs down, while offering a reliable platform. Formula Lites plans to start racing with a few events later in 2014, and the full calendar begins in 2015. Scroll down to read the full announcement about Honda's involvement.
