Why is my Odyssey malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Odyssey can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the Odyssey check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Odyssey’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Odyssey serious?

Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can be dangerous and cause further damage to your car.

Does my Odyssey drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Odyssey’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Odyssey forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2014 Honda Odyssey

Your Odyssey drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Honda, from back to front. It’s one of your Odyssey’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2014 Honda Odyssey, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Honda's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Honda Odyssey Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2014 Honda Odyssey drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Honda Odyssey may need driveshaft attention if you feel heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. It’s difficult to nail down a timeline for drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." A lot depends on your driving style and climate. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Honda Odyssey.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2014 Honda Odyssey? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. Major repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can sometimes be more expensive since they’re more labor intensive.
