The right most column is the results of the oil analysis I had done in October of the 9,600mi run on the oil put in at the Honda plant.

@@InsideBigJaysGarage Thanks, for the quick reply! I've got a 2020 Honda CRV and I'm changing the oil every 5k miles with Quaker State extreme durability full synthetic and Mobil 1 oil filters. I do a round trip from FL to PA every summer, but the rest of the mileage is just trips to Walmart, Home Depot, Grocery stores, and such and most aren't more than 5 to 10 minutes each way. The car has the 1.5L direct injected, turbo charged engine and I'm concerned about gasoline washing past the rings into the case. For instance, I've currently got about 27,500 miles on the engine and changed the oil about 5 months and 1,800 miles ago. The oil already smells of gasoline. I've not taken my yearly trip to PA, so almost all of the 1,800 miles are from short trips. Maybe I'll have to look up an oil test laboratory and see if there are any wear concerns.

That is good, for Factory Fill (FF), and 10k miles. I like to drain it out early, at about 1k miles, for new FF oil, since all that "free-floating" junk (silicon, iron, copper, aluminum) just keeps circulating, grinding down the internal surfaces a bit. Nothing too serious though, it is your choice how much you want to wear it down. You can pick a high-Moly motor oil to replace the FF oil (I used Toyota -branded 0w20 high-moly oil in my 2024 Honda CRV recently, to replace that Moly that Honda thinks is good to protect the piston skirts and I think ring wear during break-in). ..... ... Glad you changed the oil filter out this time instead of skipping that, avoiding any extra bypass-events due to a partially clogged old oil filter in cold weather starts. .... Pro-Tip: Valvoline came out with some new chemistry in their oil "Valvoline Restore and Protect" 0w-20 keeps the rings cleaner (Sequence IIIH WPD stuff). Blackened rings have never been attacked for actual cleaning before, this is new. kzread.info/dash/bejne/na2tvKagmMrKc6w.html for the complete chemistry story from Lake Speed Jr.

I rather buy oil and filters than an engine!
I have an Odyssey (205,000mi) and an Accord (234,000mi) that I have been changing the oil on at ~5% since new. I will have the latest oil analysis for those up soon. Also, I have the oil sample from the oil change I did on the Pilot @20,000mi out for analysis and should have the results back soon.
I have a 2013 mercedes e350, 10k miles Intervals, liquid moly. Currently at 187k miles never had a single issue with the car.
Hey lets spend an ungodly amount of money on a new vehicle and cheap out on the easiest and cheapest thing to do to protect our massive money losing purchase!!! What a great idea!!! LoL
I agree! Getting an oil analysis is a quick and effective way to see what is going on in your new engine. If there is something going wrong it will pick it up and you can get it addressed while still under warranty.
Thanks for sharing! Very useful! I wonder do I need to replace the hands free adapter with the new 08L91-T90-100A Adapter, hands free assist (HFA with trailer hitch)? Thanks!
I did have to replace my sensor. I believe that is the part number. “T90” is for the 2023+ Pilot.
Does your golden retriever slide around in the back while you drive?
No. Short trips to the park or vet she just lays down. Longer trips we have a large crate that she travels in.
Nice job! I love my 87 5.7 yellow iroc.
Oh man, 5.7L and Yellow. That is amazing!
Important to know how the pilot is driven and envienvironment. For example, always driven 50 miles (fully warmed) in 70 degrees. If you drive 4 miles in below zero, then that is severe service. Not telling us the use case makes the oil analysis useless.
Thanks for the feedback, I will include that in the next analysis for the viewers. This car sees a 50/50 mix. Some days it goes on a 75 mi round trip commute. Some days it goes 3 miles to the school and back. In just about all cases it hits operating temp. Good call out.
Thanks for sharing this oil analysis
You are very welcome.
Ok well done..😂 i would've shit canned that stupid bra they do more damage than help..
Well the main part was installing the shaft bearing which was skipped assuming that people would know it. Not true. Those watching these videos would mostly be non-mechanic. Thanks for the video which is still very helpful!
Sorry about that. My method is pretty unorthodox as I don’t have a press, and I didn’t want to put it out there because done incorrectly it can damage the shaft fast.
@@InsideBigJaysGarage its very helpful and thanks for your efforts making this video. What are symptoms when you know its time for rebuild? My steering wheel makes humming noise when turning all the way to the left or all the way to the right. Changed the O-rings of the two hoses but that didn’t fix the noise. Is this time to do a rebuild?
My issue was a bad fluid leak on the large o-ring on the seam of the case, where the back meets the front. How is your fluid level?
@@InsideBigJaysGarage I see mild leakage on the pressure hose but not on the pump itself. I guess the hissing noise could be the hose leak and air in the system. I am gonna try replacing the hose and see if that fixes it then move on to pump later.
Thanks for posting. My 2024 Pilot is my 4th Honda with the 3.5L V6. The first three (’00 Odyssey, '03 Accord, '08 Pilot) all took less than 5 quarts of 5W-20. I’m going to have to remember it’s now 5.8 qts of 0w-20. All four still use the exact same oil filter though.
You’re welcome. Yes, I was surprised as well. My 2013 Odyssey with a 3.5L V6 only takes ~4.5qts.
Thanks for this helpful video. Do you to remove the rear tail lights in order to remove the panels in the trunk?
No you do not. The harness will have instructions on which panels inside to pull off.
What was the issue with this car
Problem: A/C was blowing warm Cause: Hole in the condenser let out the refrigerant Solution: Replacing the condenser, and properly recharging the system.
That’s why I’ll never switch from shaffers!
Good stuff? Do you have a VOA of it? Curious what it looks like.
If you remove your oil filter before installing your oil drain plug more oil will come out of pan .
Typically that is what I do. While they are draining I will go do something else for 10-15 minutes. But, for ease of shooting I did them one at a time, this time.
I'm thinking about changing the transmission fluid on my 2023 Honda Pilot Trail sport. but can't find any video out there. i was wondering if you have a video that you can share with me. I'm greatly appreciate
I don’t have one yet, but I do plan on making one when it comes up on our Maintenance Minder.
just want to said thank you for share your videos on the new gen Pilot. it's very helpful.
You are very welcome. I’m glad you are enjoying them.
I clicked on your video because I Wondered if it was the same as my wife's 2022 MDX. it's exactly the same minus the Oil filter orientation. The MDX is still face down. One thing I would like to share is I use Trip A for gas and Trip B for oil change mileage. Thanks for the upload.👍
Interesting! I wonder why the orientation is different between the two. That is a good tip for the trip meters. Thank you for sharing.
That is good, for Factory Fill (FF), and 10k miles. I like to drain it out early, at about 1k miles, for new FF oil, since all that "free-floating" junk (silicon, iron, copper, aluminum) just keeps circulating, grinding down the internal surfaces a bit. Nothing too serious though, it is your choice how much you want to wear it down. You can pick a high-Moly motor oil to replace the FF oil (I used Toyota -branded 0w20 high-moly oil in my 2024 Honda CRV recently, to replace that Moly that Honda thinks is good to protect the piston skirts and I think ring wear during break-in). ..... ... Glad you changed the oil filter out this time instead of skipping that, avoiding any extra bypass-events due to a partially clogged old oil filter in cold weather starts. .... Pro-Tip: Valvoline came out with some new chemistry in their oil "Valvoline Restore and Protect" 0w-20 keeps the rings cleaner (Sequence IIIH WPD stuff). Blackened rings have never been attacked for actual cleaning before, this is new. kzread.info/dash/bejne/na2tvKagmMrKc6w.html for the complete chemistry story from Lake Speed Jr.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you!
👏👏👏👍👍👍
Thank you!
This is super interesting. Thanks for sharing this. It's interesting to see Honda has a ton of Molybdenum like Toyota oil.
Thanks for checking it out. I found it interesting as well. I just changed out the Quaker State that was in there for 10,020mi, today and will be sending that sample out tomorrow. Check back for a video on that analysis.
I sat in this beauty some 12/13 years ago around the time when they first got it, and can barely take my eyes off of it when I've seen it since! Beautiful work.
It is a great car and very stunning in the Yellow Gold. You should stop in and see it after the paint correction. The video really does not do it justice.
