Great video! I'm doing this right now on my '05 Odyssey with 240k miles. Already fixed a few oil leaks (including valve cover gaskets - what a pain!) and this should be the last piece of the oil leak puzzle. Good tip on dropping the exhaust pipes from the rubber hanger. I couldn't get those nuts loose either. I just came back to rewatch where to pry to break the pan free after removing all the bolts. Thanks!
Thanks a lot most appreciated on that video now I have to look forward into doing that for an 06 Honda odyssey. If you have any other more tips, please share I would like having some more ideas in fixing my odyssey thank you
Fantastic video, might tackle this problem on our 2009 Honda Odyssey. The alternator swap was a pain in the rear. And the Oreilly alternator went out after a few months, twice so shelled out the 7 Benjamins for the Honda brand alternator. Appreciate this video, guess I'm gonna need to buy more tools for this little repair. BTW, have you tackled the issue with one of the actuators blowing hot air when the AC is on?
You know several years ago we had that issue with a failing actuator not allowing ac flow, turns out they are electric and not vacuum operated like the good old days, I remember it was tight getting there to replace, seems like I had to remove some under dash stuff and lost a smallish mm socket under the carpets never to be seen again, but the new actuator did solve the issue. BTW we had two advance auto carquest or carquestionable alternators fail on the Mustang, turns out most new and rebuilt are also from China now, the rebuilds were crap, the new China-Made worked just fine.
Appreciate you posting the video. Nice job, with good hints. One question: how long do you have to wait to torque the hondabond down? Can it be done right away? Thanks.
If there was a rubber gasket I would have used it. I have had good results with Permatex Grey but have never tried it as a gasket maker hence the Hondabond which seems to work.
Now that some time has gone by, did your reseal fix the leak? Mine looks the same, resealed the pan once but that didn't get it. My leak is behind the inspection plate, the oil collects on the two bolts just like yours looked. No sign of oil on the flywheel, so don't think it's the main seal.
Hard to say, sometimes it doesn’t seal, even if everything looks sterile, results vary, I would attempt to reseal it one more time. A rear main seal could wet that area, pinpointing a leak can be challenging. If the pan is weeping anywhere else I would suspect something was compromised on the reseal job. Permatex Ultra Gray is not as time sensitive during reinstall, some folks claimed success with it as well maybe because more forgiving to work with, nothing on my early v8 stuff leaked with the Ultra.
@@millionmilegarage9587 Thanks for the reply, it does seem to be leaking at both ends of the pan so l plan on trying again. It was the first time I’d done an oil pan with goo. The Honda bond also was very stiff coming out of the tube.
I wish you were my mechanic. You're definition and example of how all mechanics are to be.

I gotta do this to my Acura TL in the next week or two and reseal oil pump also. Dreading this job
Thanks for doing this. Honda Odyssey's are really good minivans. My 2005 Odyssey has 237,000 miles. I will need to replace the oil pan soon.
Great tips I would have never thought of. Keep them coming & thanks for sharing.
The bolts on the exhaust will come off with a bolt extractor kit. Pound it on and it will work

Buen trabajo mi hermano

I don’t remember how long I waited if any, I usually don’t wait very long, should be ok to torque down immediately.
Thanks for making this. Do you think it's better to get a rubber gasket, or the goop?

Hondabond is awesome stuff. You don’t need but a thin layer, you’re using 3X more than needed here.

Guy has no idea .
👍👍
1:40 to 1:48 .....did he say what I thought he said?
I don’t remember what he said and I was the he that said it😄
Use gray differential silicone will do the same job
