I had a similar frustrating issue with my Ridgeline, especially in hot and humid weather, gosh it was a such a sluggish dawg in mid-summer. 3 shops couldn't figure it out. I ended up (kinda by accident) finding a little hole in a vacuum line, so I wrapped it with electrical tape. Of course, that "surprised" the computer at first, but it adjusted. It ended up solving the sluggish issue, and the tape is still holding several years later.

I bought a Land Cruiser at an auction with the same problem. Everyone thought it was a transmission problem but I took a chance and bought it because I thought differently. Eventually found a mechanic who noticed the vacuum leak and it ran perfectly after a small repair. Sold it 3 years later for the same price I purchased it for.

@Jeff_Seely 26 күн бұрын

Good one Scotty! You still got it! I absolutley love Honda's ( two wheels and four) and I wrench on my own vehicles. I am glad I don't have to withstand 20 mechanics not finding that! But asmuch as i love Hondas, all three of my last Odysseys have had a split in the intake duct hose! Don't companies like Honda, Toyota, Nissan, and Mazda have Tech Bulletins where a certified mechanic can open a case to be read by the engineering teams? This problem is stupid-easy to fix by going to EPDM, silicone, or Viton. It wouldn't cost them adollar more thanwhatever they are using. But 20 Rhode Island mechanics should be embarrassed!

My mechanic now says it is the transaxle. I love my car, live in Vancouver, Canada, 325,00km, and maintain it regularly. The only code is the catalytic O2 flow reading, and the frame and body are in great shape. Can you offer any suggestions? Thanks.

I had a volvo xc90 and i got it used... it was having strange issues where the cruise control at highway speeds would randomly shut off then go into limp mode. I cleaned then replaced the mass air sensor and a few other things, and kept doing it. I was looking at a schematic for my engine and saw a part i didn't recognize..... it was a scoop that directed the air into the intake, and mine was missing! Got one and put it in and problem was fixed.
