Re: 1999 Odyssey Recall Transmission

Unfortunately the problems in the 99-01 Odyssey have nothing to do with 
changing the fluid. Many have failed in under 40k. Very few have made it 
over 100k without failing. The problem is in design which also carried
over 
to the five speeds in the 02-04 van. Although fewer of them failed the 
percentage is still very high....
