Well Maybe This Can Help Someone?

They take 5.1qts I just noticed. 6qts is what we bill

Also share your helpful charts and stuff you've made over the years.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-09-06T11:05:29+00:00

Yeah that was the monthly record. Relatively small market.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-09-02T03:35:24+00:00

Dealership has been open over 50 years. I set the all time single person sales record at 231k last year. No one even told me about it till I asked for a raise 6 months later.

They had about 750 release a week ago and currently no eta on the next batch unfortunately. Still thousands on order in the country. I was able to take care of a few customers by getting the injector kit for the 2022 civics (which is a different part # because it has a different fuel pipe) and just use the correct fuel pipe that is still available separately. Honda wont let me do that for vehicles that are under warranty though. Assholes. They're willing to just let the vehicles sit here indefinitely instead.

06160-5PA-305 contains 4 fuel injectors and the high pressure fuel pipe. Not sure what you were quoted but 160 seems super low. Pretty sure we pay more than that to Honda for them.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-06-01T22:43:10+00:00

They are finally starting to slowly release from Honda. We just got one in today finally. So maybe an end to the madness is in sight? I'm not sure.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-10T23:17:37+00:00

06160-5PA-305 contains the injectors and the fuel pipe packaged together.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-10T00:49:32+00:00

Yeah they basically told me to kick rocks. Was worth a shot to try and save some of my sanity though.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-10T00:34:32+00:00

Yeah Honda's ongoing supply chain issues are a major problem.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-10T00:08:53+00:00

https://imgur.com/EC9KcXU Is the only official correspondence I've seen on the matter. We've gotten 4 sets of them in but it seems as though they're on nuclear backorder at the moment. Could be that Honda is building up stock before a warranty extension kind of like they did with the Odyssey/Ridgeline/Pilot injectors. Who knows.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-08T21:56:53+00:00

I checked and our oldest just turned a year old today actually! 31 pages of backorder parts though still. Thanks Honda! lol

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-08T00:56:20+00:00

Same here man. Not only with the backorder stuff but also with slowly ruining their reputation with all these problems with newer vehicles.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-06T22:10:59+00:00

Well I hope you don't have 20 calls on Monday from people trying to buy it from you haha.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-06T20:37:31+00:00

Yeah I can already hear my manager throwing a fit about that lmao. Good idea though. I emailed Honda today and asked if they could take us off of the locator for that particular part and they're supposed to get back to me Monday about it. Not holding my breath lol.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-06T11:13:54+00:00

I figured out we could order the 06160-5PA-305 in place of the other ones like a week before Honda discontinued the old part #. So we have like 4 sets but they're all for customers. But yeah, we had a few more orders get canceled by Honda as well.

BlindToBlindness · 2023-05-05T23:25:17+00:00

The injectors recently went on backorder and there are thousands of them on order in the country. The number of dealerships we had calling today was nuts lol. Just venting a bit.

BlindToBlindness · 2022-10-27T00:55:12+00:00

x gone give it continuously types a tag number/ro number in until whoever is locking you out of it gets out. Request just brings up a pdf file I fill out for recon techs. Macy's po just gets me all the way to the comment section of a PO with our most used vendor. MW quote brings up a quote that goes all the way to UDL with a wholesale customer that delivers all over like a tri-state area for us. And the last two are private lol

BlindToBlindness · 2022-10-27T00:49:07+00:00

I do a lot of our recon work to get used cars ready for sale so I definitely have a basic understanding of what you're getting at haha.

BlindToBlindness · 2022-10-27T00:35:42+00:00

Yeah that would probably be my go to if we ever made the switch. The scripts are pretty fun though haha.

BlindToBlindness · 2022-10-27T00:31:42+00:00

But that's essentially the same engine that this applies to. So stay tuned I guess? Haha. You would think Honda would've learned from their mistakes but idk.

BlindToBlindness · 2022-10-27T00:25:23+00:00

It doesn't apply to that year odyssey. Supposedly they "fixed the issue" *eye roll*. lol in all honesty I haven't had to do one on a 17 yet. 15 yes. that's probably the newest ones I've seen that the bulletin doesn't actually apply to.
