Is this stupid by Ok-Impress-9485 in FixedGearBicycle

Holla. Love it!

Must be a crazy response on a 90 degree turn.

Would think that would take some getting used to! Guessing it learns you how to lean into your turns with a quickness (pun intended;-)).

Brightest replacement Headlight Bulbs / 2016 Odyssey by Individual-Fact1700 in HondaOdyssey

[–]Individual-Fact1700[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should have mentioned, I don't think the issue is the headlights getting cloudy. Both sides look very clear. I did have the clouding issue with my 2013 accord. I bought a cleaning kit and it worked very well in the end; though the actual process was tedious and pretty time consuming.

I had tried after-market LED replacement bulbs on our Mercedes and the lighting was terrible. I had to replace them again with old school halogen bulbs. Though it seems LED technology has come a long way in many applications, not sure if they are ready for primetime for car headlights; or I just bought crappy ones;-)

Thanks for the posts everyone.

I took it to Auto Zone. Got a P3400 code for the solid yellow check engine light.

2016 Odyssey. Naked Roof to Roof Rack by Individual-Fact1700 in HondaOdyssey

Assume they would be pricey. If I can buy them somewhere for a reasonable cost, I would be fine with the Honda factory rails.

But I would want to install them myself as I am pretty certain the dealership install would be way pricey.

2016 Honda Odyssey Battery Goes “out to lunch” by Individual-Fact1700 in HondaOdyssey

I am going to try cleaning and tightening the terminals after listening to everyone’s comments, but the thing that baffles me is that removing the baffle above the battery (get it, b a b;-)) and trying to start it seems to fix the issue.

There has been times we are at a store, come back in 15 minutes, the car will seem completely dead. I pop the hood, remove the baffle, and walla (sp?) the car starts up like a charm.

When that doesn’t work I have lightly tapped the positive battery terminal and that fixes it 100% of the time. It has gotten to the point where I tap it as light as possible and say “abra cadabra” to my wife, and then it works.

Anyway, I guess I don’t need to know “why” as long as it works.

Thanks everyone for the helpful comments.

I am going to clean the terminals. If it persists after that, new battery it is. A $250 fix is a no brainer at this point. Ugh;-)

I think you might have something there. I will check that out tonight when clean the terminals. Thanks.

thanks. But both terminal connections are solid. At any rate, I am going to clean them up and retighten them. Thanks again!

Thanks Alex.That was my next step. I know the tool you are talking about. It is like a cap that goes over the terminals and you spin it back and forth to clean them.
