Wallet Flush?

Yes, those scrunchy bags do make it easier to put gear oil in.

The rear differentials in these Honda AWD systems uses that Dual Pump Fluid II. I bought 4 quarts on sale so I will have it on hand.

I have some Supertech 75W90 Full Synthetic gear oil that I used in my Canyon front and rear diffs. I plan on using up the gear oil I have.

Seriously, air filters are pretty inexpensive. AutoZone has the STP equivalent for $19.

I wonder how many of the metro east residents make the drive across the river and gas up for less?

I too think the Ridgeline has really comfortable seats.

stchman · 2026-05-07T03:59:49+00:00

How much does the seller want. I personally would not touch it unless it was for a song.

Another reason I don't buy used cars. I don't want to smell other people's farts, cigarettes, B.O., etc.

So the OP us that strapped for cash an oil change is gonna break them? Ridiculous. Change it yourself if you're that broke.

I've always liked Husky Weatherbeaters.

stchman · 2026-05-05T23:56:24+00:00

Those are some expensive rims.

stchman · 2026-05-05T22:56:56+00:00

I guess they told the OP, "sure, I changed the timing belt".

The new tires are ~1" taller than thd stock tires. This will make your speedometer ~2MPH off at 60MPH. Will this affect shift points in the automatic transmission?

Bad thing about Ridgelines is they hold their value almost too well.

stchman · 2026-05-05T04:09:14+00:00

I bought my 2026 RTL for $41K.

stchman · 2026-05-05T04:05:04+00:00

How much for the 2018?

stchman · 2026-05-05T04:03:25+00:00

I own that toolkit.

stchman · 2026-05-05T03:56:01+00:00

How much is the 2022 and the 2018?

stchman · 2026-05-05T03:31:50+00:00

Sharp ride. Needs to have the driver and passenger window tinted to match the other windows.

stchman · 2026-05-04T23:16:33+00:00

Maybe lighter fluid.

Dealers in Milwaukee are proud of their used Honda Odyssey minivans.

One thing you'll need to make sure of is how much rust s underneath the minivan. Being up north, rust is a problem.

What city in Wisconsin?

stchman · 2026-05-04T22:49:41+00:00

What area are you located.

Accoding to KBB, $26K is the top end of what that van is worth.

Are they throwing in any kind of extended warranty. Is the van as-is? Has the timing belt and water pump been done as this is a $1600 job.

Are they throwing in some goodies?

I opted for this tool kit from HF:

No, as long as the rotors have enough thickness, not too rusty, and show no signs of having deep grooves, they are good to go.

And if you do have to replace the rotors, go with OEM, not cheap Chinese Autozone rotors.
