Aloha. Bought a 99 odyssey a couple weeks ago. Shifts and runs decent. But I think code p7040 or p7041 comes on. Googled it and says is for the torque converter clutch solenoid. I pulled the part from a car junk yard. Seems ok. Haven’t put it in yet tho. Notified earlier today driving it felt like the car tried to shut off for like half a second and went back to normal super quick. But engine light flashed once and code came up.
Friend says don’t drive like this.
how the heck do i add a photo to this post
Now does a part even go in this pic. I checked 2 vans in junk yard and one for sale today and they don’t have a part here.But looks like one goes there.
Also went to look at a 2000 Odyssey with a friend. It was slipping and shifting delay. They said it needed a tcu or something. But I’m pretty sure that’s trans was just bad, fluid was good. Wondering yals opinion.
I’m pretty sure a part goes here not sure can u help me? Here’s the pic
A year or so ago on this forum someone posted a similar picture asking about it, wasn't on a Honda though. Replies were that those holes are used during the manufacturing process, not intended for attaching parts.
Well I would never buy an odyssey because they always have transmission problems. And generally it's not torque converter itself it's the transmission that wears out but of course torque converter is going to wear out on any car when I get that old. I would advise seeing a Honda transmission expert and having them diagnosed with their Honda dealer scan tool and see what they say but as I said I would never buy an odyssey because they're notorious or transmission problems Hyundai actually replace the bunch of them free for people
