@scottykilmer Hu how are you? I was told by a friend of mine who is a fan of yours as well he tells me that you are in rhodeisland for a while and I could come scan my car with you?is that a possibility?iliv3 I. Rhodeisland aswell
Car owner: “$200? Just to stick on a piece of tape? Robbery!” Mechanic: “No, sir, I only charged you ten dollars for the tape. The rest is for knowing where to put it”!
Coincidentally, my 06 accord's got broken the same place a few months ago, I duck taped it but it still tripped a code 2 months later, then eventually I had to replace it with a new hose
I had a similar frustrating issue with my Ridgeline, especially in hot and humid weather, gosh it was a such a sluggish dawg in mid-summer. 3 shops couldn't figure it out. I ended up (kinda by accident) finding a little hole in a vacuum line, so I wrapped it with electrical tape. Of course, that "surprised" the computer at first, but it adjusted. It ended up solving the sluggish issue, and the tape is still holding several years later.
Good catch by you Mr Kilmer When doing routine maintenance I always look around the car for something unusual A leak in fluid or air or whatever Excellent video
Good one Scotty! You still got it! I absolutley love Honda's ( two wheels and four) and I wrench on my own vehicles. I am glad I don't have to withstand 20 mechanics not finding that! But asmuch as i love Hondas, all three of my last Odysseys have had a split in the intake duct hose! Don't companies like Honda, Toyota, Nissan, and Mazda have Tech Bulletins where a certified mechanic can open a case to be read by the engineering teams? This problem is stupid-easy to fix by going to EPDM, silicone, or Viton. It wouldn't cost them adollar more thanwhatever they are using. But 20 Rhode Island mechanics should be embarrassed!
I bought a Land Cruiser at an auction with the same problem. Everyone thought it was a transmission problem but I took a chance and bought it because I thought differently. Eventually found a mechanic who noticed the vacuum leak and it ran perfectly after a small repair. Sold it 3 years later for the same price I purchased it for.
Scotty, I absolutely agree about the teeny tiny engines with turbos in big cars. IMO, the power needed to move these hunks of metal must mean that the engines are in a constant state of stress. Plain old common sense would tell you that they are going to fail way too early. 👍
Also, if he used aftermarket motor mounts you will still get the vibration. Change all mounts with honda oem mounts. I've had two of these, just sold one with 200k miles no issues with vibrations after the mounts were chnaged.
True, moving to Tennessee and other smaller locations are great. For now. However, like anything and everywhere else as more people move to these ‘comfortable’ places eventually overcrowding will become an issue, then crime, increased need for more resources. As a means to compensate, increase in taxes, salaries, decreasing services and resources. 🤔🤷🏼🙄
Hawaii also has some of the worst roads. There’s a bunch out here with some potholes you may want to avoid, as that can do wonders for your suspension system.
I thought about using silicone sealer (e.g. Silastic Automotive) to patch, but there are probably other weak points in the air tunnel. A new tunnel is best unless it costs 1.7 arms + 2 legs.
Scotty, i have a 2007 vibe, and i got a rattle in the front end nobody can diagnose. I've replaced the catalytic, front lower A Arms, driver's side axle, and struts. My mechanic now says it is the transaxle. I love my car, live in Vancouver, Canada, 325,00km, and maintain it regularly. The only code is the catalytic O2 flow reading, and the frame and body are in great shape. Can you offer any suggestions? Thanks.
I had a volvo xc90 and i got it used... it was having strange issues where the cruise control at highway speeds would randomly shut off then go into limp mode. I cleaned then replaced the mass air sensor and a few other things, and kept doing it. I was looking at a schematic for my engine and saw a part i didn't recognize..... it was a scoop that directed the air into the intake, and mine was missing! Got one and put it in and problem was fixed.
Great catch Scotty! I never had any rubber duct problems on my 25 yr old BMW. (Lots of broken plastic stuff, but hey). Hondas are over rated, had one wasn't impressed. Still like my CB750!
I usually keep a roll of Gorilla Tape in my car, another in my garage, and a third smaller one in my tool bag. That stuff is amazing and far better than electrical tape.
Have an 07 accord with this engine. Had the same issue and only found it when I have the starter replaced and the mechanic found that broken and changed it. Seems like more often those don't last long
I remember when the air filter box had a lid on it that you could take off all by itself to replace the air filter and not have to remove the air tubing to get it off first.
Got the same issue, with a shitty hard plastic hose, I have no idea who came up with that genius idea, it broke after I changed my air filter the 2nd time because well it´s stiff. My car is 12 years old now and I still drive with the stupid thing broken, just sealed it up really really good with special tape.
Those according ducts get dry and brittle. You have to be careful went removing them to get to another part. I cracked one and it cost me $150 dollars at the parts store.
Scottie, I have a $2005 Dodge County, minimany of them. When I run they are conditionit has a tendency of jerking a lot when I'm idling when. The car is in gear when I put it in park or neutral. It stopped when I accelerate. It's fine just when I'm stopped at a light with my foot on the brake. Feeling this jump and hesitation in the motor what should I chat? Please help thank you
5:37 I think this Honda might not have the latest and greatest air\fuel ratio sensors if there was no check engine light or code. This Honda probably has the older oxygen sensors but you would think it would have detected a lean condition with the unmetered air from that crack in the intake tube.
Hello Scotty, I bought a 2024 Toyota Corolla with a 2000cc engine and a CVT transmission. When starting, a strange sound comes from the side of the engine. Another problem is that when I drive a car at low speeds and lift my foot on the accelerator, a sound comes from the side of the engine. The sound is like there is a gap between the accelerator and the transmission.
Looks much like my wife's 06 Accord. It's a pain to remove that air cleaner. Will go check her car now for a cracking hose. Thanks Scotty for another entertaining and educational video. 😊
5:32 - Exactly. My Xtreme was doing a herky-jerky rpm thing at 45mph even on cruise control .Turns out, the transmission fluid was a touch low. That was all.
Hi Scott I told you what happened I bought nissan micra 2011 by auction (copart) in UK, car was good condion but it show me on dashboard eng amber light. I visited different machanics including gearbox specialists they told me you have pay £800 pound I watched many of your videos and you said do not run to machanics when you see eng lights so I take that advice it was 2021 and still driving very smooth after 3 years no problems, Thank you for your honest advice now day's most works are dishonest.
Yeah got the wife a major upgrade by dropping our Santa Fe sport and trading up for a v6 highlander. No more Korean cars in my family. All Japanese vehicles from now on… except for Nissan
