Scotty,
I just bought a 2016 Honda Odyssey for $18,400 out the door to haul my kids around in. It's one owner, and it's been meticulously maintained with transmission fluid every 30k miles and the previous owner just did the timing belt in December of 2025. It's at 88k miles right now.
The dealer sold it with a 12 month 12,000 mile warranty. Wondering if I should muzzle it or not. What do you think?
Also are these technically legal? https://www.vcmtuner.com/
Thanks!
PPS: I’d you can comment on why 2016 Odysseys are dying at higher milage than the 2015 Siennas, I’d appreciate your perspective:
ps I live in Ohio

I personally would have the VCM disabled because the vehicle will last longer then. It's just a dumb system really. Now. Some people have Hondas that last longer than Toyotas. Some people have Toyotas that last longer than Hondas. Some of that's just luck of the draw but most of it is you got to change the oil every 5,000 mi do it on either and they should last quite some time
