How Reliable Used 2012 Honda Pilot EXL With High Miles POV Test Drive

[@michaelwright1602]

I just purchased a 2013 Pilot, the EX-L with 4WD... Only 113,000 miles on her, service records galore, timing belt and water pump just replaced at 90,000 miles. Regular oil changes, transmission fluid nice and pinkish red, no signs of abuse, female adult owned, no kids or pets. The interior is like it just rolled out of the factory. Even the leather seats are tight and firm, no cracks. We drove six hours to get her, paid under book value from a dealer in Ohio. Oh, undercarriage is clean as a whistle! No rust! I would say the car spent much of its time in a garage. Very happy.

Thing things will last you a long time. The only issue I had with mine was I need an alternator change which might be for you soon

[@moegreen5760]

That’s a nice steal. I got my 2011 in 2014 for 29k out the door.

[@armandolorian2120]

Bought a 2012 with 27k miles in 2014 and it currently has 235k miles. It has been a great vehicle.

[@WaGwan-n6x]

Should go 300000 no problem

[@shadowman1992]

Have you ever a valve adjustment done on it ?

[@armandolorian2120]

@@shadowman1992 I have not had valve adjustment performed. Will probably have it done at 60k if it’s needs it then. At this time, engine is quiet at idle and doesn’t burn oil.

I’m about to go buy a 2012 Honda Pilot , with about 144,000 miles. Great condition like this one. Thx for the vid!!

[@povnelson2019]

You are very welcome 🙏 good luck with you’re purchase 🤗

[@orangecounty60]

I just bought one yesterday exact same car with 124,000 miles, it seems like it has some weird issues that I didn’t catch before buying it kind of seems like the transmission shifts funny, or maybe it’s the Pistons turning on and off kind of a weird feeling. And I don’t understand how the mileage per gas is calculated. I had a Camry that would give you an overall number, this car seems to give you a calculation per trip which is very difficult and I don’t like it, first it said I was getting 12 miles to the gallon and then 18 miles to the gallon kind of odd

@Kellel AL hey are you still looking for a Pilot or not anymore?

[@alexandrucovaliov8989]

It's a very spacious car. Even on paper new models looks a little bit bigger, this car is giving you impression that it's much bigger than newer models. We had family trip across Canada with 2 kids and 2 big dogs and we never had space management issues. Every door with 3 pockets, center console where you can store lot of stuff, large windows you can see everything. And, it's riding smooth. The only cons I have about this car is engine not torque enough and road noise. Everything else is perfect when you need lot of interior room but you don't want to ride a van.

[@BillyRhoda]

I have a 2012 with 220k miles on it. Engine runs strong. Love the way it rides and drives.

I had a 2012 Touring for 10 yrs. Got it up to 190K miles. Regular maintenance. Tune-up at 100K. Only replaced starter. Belts never had to be replaced. Loved it. Great for my kids with the space and DVD. Sadly it was totaled. Now driving a 2017 Pathfinder...but thinking about getting another one because of just how solid it is.

[@lincmerc1581]

I just bought a 2010 4wd Touring from a neighbor. One owner, always garaged maintained. 238k miles. Timing belt and waterpump replaced at 195k. No children. Black leather Interior is immaculate. I am excited to have another Honda to sit next to my '04 Accord LX.

Watch out for timing belt. Watch out for VCM tearing up your transmission and motor mounts.

Can you give us more details on VCM, please? I love my 2011 Pilot and I want it to serve me another 10 years :)
