@dylancool86385 күн бұрын
@@LilDiabloRob you remove the caps on the front and back and middle of the rails, undo some 10mm nuts, and then take it off. 2014 Honda Odyssey roof rails fit right in, although you’d had to cut a few inches off

Just found your channel. I also have a 2012 TSX SportWagon. Bone stock. Have always had the dealer do the trans fluid. They never did the filter in 130k miles. Same for my 2013 RDX with 183k miles. If I'm correct, that's the filter for the fluid return from the trans cooler, same as the RDX except for the location. I changed the trans solenoid for the 3rd gear clutch on the RDX as it was supposed to be a cure for a sometimes wonky 2-3 upshift on the 6-speed auto. Didn't do anything and was a waste of $53. I figured out where and when it acts up and just drive it accordingly. As for my SportWagon, best car i ever owned. Bought it when it was 3 years old from the dealer. Only thing that sucks is the black paint is shot (particularly on the front fascia and hood). Was looking for the euro-spec taillights but they are a fortune and hard to come by.

Love the video. I remember the first time I ever found out about a TSX wagon was when I saw one in a nearby town as I was going to bible study. I freaked out when I saw it and had to snap a picture. At that moment, I knew this was gonna be my next car. After the transmission went out in my 2004 TL at 289,000 miles, I was on the hunt for a wagon. There were a couple on my radar from Philly to Washington DC. I finally settled on looking at one just outside of DC about 1.5 hours away. We were told is was at the shop having service done, but we walked across the street and saw it outside. I decided to walk around and new that I wasn't going to let this one slip away. After some talking with the bank and getting a loan approved, we drove down a second time and I was able to drive away in my dream daily driver. 3 years and some mod later, I wouldn't trade it for any other car. I'm so happy with mine, despite it's flaws and I am excited to see what I can do with it in the future.
