Honda questions we answer every week
Straight answers from our techs
Why does my Honda rattle for a second on a cold start?
On many 2008-and-newer Accords and CR-Vs with the 2.4L, a brief grinding rattle on a cold start is the VTC actuator on the intake camshaft.
Warning signs
Rattle on cold start · Lasts a second or two
What we do
We confirm it and replace the VTC actuator.
Why does my Honda V6 misfire and use oil?
Many Pilots, Odysseys and Accords with VCM (cylinder shutoff) can foul spark plugs and use oil on the cylinders that shut off.
Warning signs
Misfire · Oil consumption · Vibration · Check engine light
What we do
We diagnose the misfire and oil use and repair the cause — plugs, rings or the VCM system.
Why does my CR-V oil smell like gas?
Some 2017–2018 CR-Vs with the 1.5L turbo can get fuel in the oil, especially in cold weather and on short trips.
Warning signs
Rising oil level · Fuel smell on the dipstick · Rough idle when cold
What we do
We check the oil and for software updates, and change the oil and any updated parts as needed.
Colorado Springs: Cold Colorado mornings and short trips make oil dilution more likely.
When does my Honda V6 need a timing belt?
Honda V6 engines use a timing belt. Most call for replacement around every 7 years or 105,000 miles — earlier with heavy use.
Why it matters
Belt age · Mileage · Water pump wear
What we do
We replace the belt, water pump and tensioner together.
Why is my Honda A/C blowing warm?
Honda A/C problems are commonly a failed compressor clutch, a leaking condenser, or a failed compressor.
Warning signs
Warm air · A/C cycling on and off · Noise from the compressor
What we do
We leak-test and diagnose the system and repair the failed part.
