Best car ever
Outstanding Van. We bought this van brand new and just passed 250K miles. Same motor and transmission. I've replaced radiator at 230K miles and alternator at 200K miles. Everything else was routine maint. I will keep driving it until it dies.

Still Going
Coming up on 300k miles and still running. Most of the engine's been rebuilt by now, and it has an oil leak that pops up now and then, but it still runs. It's survived two tire blowouts and a lot more off-roading than the designers probably had in mind. That being said, it's rapidly turning into a money pit, but after that many miles, who can blame it?

Fantastic minivan
I bought this new in 2003 and we are coming up on 250K miles. Still runs like new. Original transmission and engine. I changed oil every 5K with full synthetic since day 1. Changed transmission fluid every 50K. Timing belt every 100K. Brake,Coolant and power steering fluid every 100K. I will drive this until the engine or transmission goes out.

Surging Idle from dirty IAC valve
the car works great when maintained oil changed 3-4K miles ATF changed at 60,000 miles. Many of the '03 have paint top coat exfoliates below the window sills. There is 2 non standard fasteners holding IAC Valve to the throttle body. These should be changed for standard SS 10-25. 1 inch Phillips #2 is easiest or a hex is ok. a round or pan head. Just don'y use a flat head. Installing a supplemental Transmission oil cooler is a plus. These are available from Honda (tow package) or online from $50 to $100 or auto parts store.

Worst Honda I've ever bought sad
Google only has about $161,000 miles on it it has transmission slippage OBD reader says to replace transmission very expensive can't replace filters for transmission which would more likely fix the problem at least has on other types of vehicles has a transmission oil leak and the other way to fill it is through the dipstick hole which is about the size of a straw

Best car we’ve ever owned!
We purchased this Odyssey in 2003; it continues to be a reliable, comfortable vehicle with over 150,000 miles. West Hills Honda in Bremerton, WA has provided fine service and we expect to continue enjoying this vehicle for years to come. We especially appreciate the flexible interior which permits a variety of functions including transporting a wheelchair.

It's been good for Me
I purchased this vehicle used in 2005. It now has over 200K miles on it. I've adhere to all maintenance check ups, ownership comes with a cost. However no major breakdowns. The driver side door sliding door cable recently broke. I'm not going to replace it. It just open and closes manually like a regular one. I plan on keeping it for a few more years minimally. After that give it away to a needy family/single mom. My catalytic converter was recently removed without my authorization.
