2003 Odyssey Hesitation
I've been having trouble with this van since we got it 2 years ago, and
it's getting worse. It seems that around 40 and 60 mph, when we are just light on the accelerator to maintain constant speed, the tran almost seems like it slips to neutral. RPMs drop to idle and we slow down. Applying gas corrects the problem. This has been a day-one problem and we've never been able to get the dealer to reproduce it during waranty period, and now we are over. Any suggestions? Thx. Bill |

The problem is a bad EGR valve. Tell your dealer to read sevice bulletin
04-029 for the proper fix. "Bill Gutknecht" > wrote in message . com... > I've been having trouble with this van since we got it 2 years ago, and > it's getting worse.

The bulletin is dated September 3rd 2004, but we've been doing this repair
at our dealership for several months now. "Bill Gutknecht" > wrote in message . com... > Honda Doc wrote: > > >The problem is a bad EGR valve.
