Only upgrade you need is the driver. Hit that hill at speed and you go up easy with momentum. Element doesn’t have enough weight or power to crawl...

[@sergioherrera3029]

And more aggressive tires less air that's all

[@chrisrussell4073]

100%. He was too slow and kept aiming for that dip. Driver mod is the best mod. Stop wasting money on parts and take an offroading class. Much better use of cash

[@rayhanna6392]

The best car honda ever built!!!!

[@oldmillrd8153]

Turn around and back up the hill with momentum. Piece of cake said the guy with two Elements ('05 manual, 2010 auto with traction control switch).

[@luisg1653]

Gotta start from further back and come around that turn in 2nd gear. You'd be up the hill no problem if you came with momentum. With the Element you gotta send it, its not a crawler.

[@brandonlee5354]

Guy just loves aiming for that ditch at 0.25 mph. Stay down there then!

[@JorgeGonzalez-nc7uk]

momentum is the key >> you were accelerating when on the hill its too late and also putting it on L if automatic .. and it doesnt look like its a 4wd

[@henrylv21]

Is not the car... is the driver 🤦‍♂️

[@MrHurricaneFloyd]

Your rear differential clutch was not engaging at all, probably due to overheating. There is a thermal protection valve that will totally disable the system if you overheat it. It takes quite a while to cool back down.

[@TheInnerHalo72]

Do you think an oil cooler would prevent this problem? Or a bigger radiator?

[@rostravelventure]

@@TheInnerHalo72 That what Im about to do add a oil cooler

[@richeyrich2203]

Read diff doesn’t have a clutch. It’s a Newtonian fluid system that use clutch fluid. When slip is detected then the fluid thickens and increases fricten to drive the wheels

[@MrHurricaneFloyd]

@@richeyrich2203 You are completely wrong. The old Honda Dual Pump II system used on all years of Element uses hydraulic fluid running through 2 pumps, one running off the ring gear of the rear differential and one attached to the propeller shaft which is running off the ring gear of the front differential. If the front pump goes faster than the rear the excess fluid pressure activates the clutch plates and locks in the rear wheels. It is not exactly AWD and not very elegant but it is very reliable. Honda has used similar since the early 1980s.

[@VanaConn]

Subaru AWD is superior but I gave my old outback to my Brother for an 06 Element. It's next level spaciousness wins over my ole Subaru

[@mygrrrlz]

no rear moon roof so a front wheel drive model. everyone is right, he needs to get a running start.

[@spinningbacksidekick]

A lifted Honda Element was one of the few vehicles that drove the entire Silk Road. Driver didn't understand what needed to be done here.

[@MrC72k]

4 wheeling or trying to get up a 3foot hill for 5 mins with essentially FWD?

[@neverlate9398]

This thing get stuck in a parking lot

[@boomer3305]

m y 07 has as lock button on the side of the stic lower gears and locked

[@0117ization]

Awd and only 1 front tire spinning ? Huh

[@jasonelliott9762]

its called an open differential.

[@DJThiccums]

Exactly it’s not a 4x4 it’s AWD it kicks in when you get stuck but I don’t think it’s meant to do it the way he was driving it. You can’t turn it on and off

[@mik3lawry953]

@@DJThiccums it doesn't kick in when you get stuck... It kicks in when the front tires start slipping/spinning.. maybe this model is a fwd, not an awd.

[@MR.vids21]

Dont see the back tires spinning so no AWD here just front 🤦‍♂️

[@KushasNetwork]

😂

[@pretol1]

Given how little torque is sent to the rear, and the rear is open-diffed with no computer brains to split the torque left-right. It's really not a 4wd system for off-road.

[@roberthillberry1816]

pretol1 why don’t you just push the break a little slowing free spinning tires so sending more power where is needed

[@petejansen8098]

BACK UP IT. DIDN'T SEE ANY REAR WHEEL TRACTION OR SPIN. 4WD?

[@KushasNetwork]

Awd

[@JCnordic2983]

It would've helped if you had all terrain tires, doesn't matter 4wd , unless you have the tires for the terrain. It's not the element.

[@winm7479]

Was that front wheel drive element ?

[@vkhiev]

It's a pain to watch how you drive. Is it even an AWD

[@WisconsinEric]

Were the Elements tires aired down? They looked like good tires.

[@KushasNetwork]

+WisconsinEric no they were pretty much fresh off a mount and balance, falken wildpeak a/t

[@WisconsinEric]

@@KushasNetwork 225/70/16?

[@KushasNetwork]

Not sure, check out his Instagram specs should be listed there

[@foodforthought7810]

Either bad driver, fwd, or both. I know for a fact even my mustang can tackle terrain like this because I drive it down forestry access roads all the time. No reason this can't as well.

[@mlvncgndhn9583]

air downing may help a lil bit.. or try left fooT braking

[@KushasNetwork]

Didn't wanna push it too hard so we let it be

[@11secghia]

almost a vanagon synchro....

[@doomsquad1]

That was pretty sad to watch and that's coming from a element owner 🥲

[@burivagno9612]

No more upgrades. Just get a Toyota haha

[@yodawg3469]

My '08 Kia Optima coulda made it up that

[@msengineeringdavid3148]

It’s called real time 4wd it’s not awd there is no center differential

[@martsi8272]

А где полный привод?

[@user-lw6ml3dv1o]

Понты дороже денег!!!

[@user-lw6ml3dv1o]

В чём прикол???

[@dthao4033]

Going to slow

[@WhatzsProduction]

LOVE YOUR ELEMENT CHECK MY OFF ROAD OVERLAND HONDA FIT JAZZ I JUST STARTING MAKING ADVENTURE VIDEO

[@matthewboyd6185]

[@t4routdoors799]

After that you'd wanna sell it lol good try though

[@ivur44]

НАИТУПЕЙШИЙ ВОДИЛА

[@eduardodltorre7433]

🤦🏻‍♂️

[@lguenther5]

Turn off the traction control!

[@KushasNetwork]

Not a factory option for the 07

[@lguenther5]

Gotcha, I’m used to the 08 model. Fun times off-road!

[@JoeB3477]

Miss my '08!

[@jeffkeni]

@@KushasNetwork Traction control is a feature of the Vehicle Stability Assist option that was standard on ALL Elements beginning the 2007 model year. VSA can be turned off with the button on the dash to the left of the steering column.

[@ShoutingMeatball]

My audi could show that up

[@sangnguyen-sv2lj]

It's painful to watch.
