Thanks for sharing! This is all too familiar to me. I own the same vehicle and you’re spot on about the oil pump, cam covers seals. Also the oil filter gasket housing is another common leak spot but very easy to fix. Mine has a little over 155k and runs great. My only issue at the moment is the front passenger cv axle boot started to leak grease. I did a lot suspension work just like you, I used Moog coils, Kyb shock absorbers, links , sway bar bushings, centric disk, Akibono pads and replaced both Lowe control arms with moogs as well. By the way if you ever hear a whining noise while steering there are 2 o ring seals that go on both lines that connect to the power steering pump very easy fix. I’m very happy with my pilot it takes me everywhere I wanna go and it has been rock solid all these years I can relate to the funny looks as well 😂 specially while venturing off road.
Put a Jeep tires on this and it will do the same thing, I'm not sure why people think that Jeep is somehow a great off road vehicle with 60s technology :) It all comes down to tires.
I just got a 2008 and I’m really hopeful it will keep us on the road for quite some time. I freak out whenever i spend money and your video is very reassuring. 😂 ty!
You have to send it to a company like Safety Restore if it's in crash mode, forgot to mention that. All my friend did was the calibration after the fact
I appreciate your videos. I own a 2007 EX-L 4WD AND a 2007 EX-L front-wheel drive. You noted that you replaced both of your fog light assemblies with new glass-lens assemblies. My OEM parts source wants over $400 apiece for the fog lamps. A set on eBay is $39.95. From what source did you purchase your replacement fog light assemblies? Thank you!
@@jameslaing Remove the silver side trim pieces, remove the dark plastic pieces on each side of the climate control, remove like 4 screws and pull the connectors out. Take it over to your work bench, unscrew the plate on the back, and remove each bulb and wrap the wire terminals the same way they came off. That's about it. All you need is a small socket set/screw gun and some small flathead screwdrivers.
I didn't lol, it was at the dealer for some other stuff so they did it. I did do the timing belt tho with the help of my friends. ATF every 20K. Runs like a top!
