I am the original owner of an '02 Odyssey EX-L Navi and have many of the same issues as I see on this forum, and have raved about my Ody from the beginning. I have done the following and found the fixes here at OdyClub except for my most current:
- New sliding door sensors/contacts (twice)
- New Transmission (93.000-miles)
- New Motor mounts (93.000-mles)
- Rear Main Seal (93.000-miles)
- Front Struts (68.000-miles)
- Rear Shocks (68.000-miles) then again at 101.000-miles)
- Installed towing package, including trans cooler.
- Innumerable batteries and tires.
- Timing Belt, spark plugs.
- Innumerable tranny flushes, brake flushes, coolant flushes, power-steering flushes....
This brings us up to her current mileage of 160.000+ miles. This Ody has never broken down and has made several cross-country trips and routinely climbs mountains. My latest issue that I don't know how to correct is:
The Ody randomly does not want to start. I can get in in the morning and she will crank right up, run errands and then try to go back out and "No Go". The battery is new and all lights come on but when I turn the key she doesn't even want to try - no groaning or sputter. I also notice that when I get out to lock her during this "episode" the horn will not "beep".
Could this be the ignition? Starter? Alternator?
