  1. 1G Under The Hood / Performance
    So I have seen all kinds of threads regarding superchargers , acura engine swaps, and how limited the power up options are on this vehicle. But has anyone thought about doing a k24 forced induction swap? Engine swaps aren't my forte, but this is a pretty common Honda build, and since the motor...
  2. 1G Problems & Issues
    I just returned from an extended family visit to find that my 2010 Ridgeline RTL won't start. Starter motor isn't turning the engine over - almost sounds as if the battery is flat (but it isn't, and I've also tried with increasing available current with jumper cables and with a booster)...
  3. Second Generation Ridgeline (2G 2017+)
    I need to change the spark plugs in my 18 Ridgeline. the OEM # (12290-R9P-A01) is going for $38 dollars for one, $228 total. The dealer is charging $336.99. If doing it yourself do you recommend using the OEM plugs or is there a cheaper alternative?

    A few weeks ago my 2006 with 160k starting making a low groan from the front of the truck. All fluids were changed, oil, ATF, transfer, diff. While I was doing those I noticed the flex pipe should be replaced but the noise is not a exhaust leak. It sounds like the engine is struggling, like...
  6. 1G Problems & Issues
    Driving today and I was going to pass another car and when I started to accelerate, the engine quit running. Was able to pull over and tried to crank and while it will crank it will not stay running. Two messages: check oil level, which is fine, and check charging system. From searching a bit...
  7. First Generation Ridgeline (1G 2006-2014)
    The forum has yet to give a clear and accurate answer as to how the engine cylinders are numbered in a 2009 Ridgeline (not firing order but numbers). I found conflicting information everywhere. The scanner is throwing a code for a misfire in cylinder 2, but I am not sure which particular...
  8. First Generation Ridgeline (1G 2006-2014)
    Was driving home after picking my kid up from daycare and was cut off by a SOB going 75-80mph. Upon accelerating again the engine had minimal to no power and by the time I pulled over to the shoulder I could smell a burning smell. The whole dash lit up with no distinguishable alarm. Had it towed...
  9. 1G Under The Hood / Performance
    As along with my previous posts regarding my new Ridgeline, I have done a full round of fluid servicing/testing on the truck after taking possession as a second owner. The truck is 2009 and based on mileage (97k km, 60k miles) the timing belt does not need to be changed yet. However it still...

    There is a small white plastic valve coming from the underside of the front bumper on the driver's side. I'm not sure how long this has been here, had my timing belt and water pump done last year. What is this valve for? I cannot clearly see what it attaches to. When I turned the valve a reddish...
  11. First Generation Ridgeline (1G 2006-2014)
    Here's the problem. Latley my 2007 Honda Ridgeline has had a weird pulsing dip in power. It only happens at cruising speed. When the truck is at idle there are no change in the rpms. At first I thought it was the ac kicking on because thats what it felt like, as if a compressor turned on and...

  14. 1G Problems & Issues
    I bought a 2006 RTL from a private party last week for $8400. I took it to a mechanic but it was not in my area so I didn't know the mechanic, and he didn't do a good inspection. Long story short, before I even got home - about 30 miles from where I bought it - the engine died and left me...
  15. 1G Problems & Issues
    Hello everyone, I apologize if this is on another thread but I did a search and went through previous post and couldn't find anything like this. I have a 2007 Ridgeline RTL with about 190k miles and since about 170k when I'm accelerating and I reach about 30-50mph the engine revs start to...
  16. 1G Problems & Issues
    Hi guys, been here a long time but not posted much. I've got a 2006 model (bought in march '05), with 158k miles on it. The recently started hesitating, eg skipping or stuttering so to speak at about 1500 rpms under light acceleration. It also "skips" at idle, I've noticed it with the...
  17. First Generation Ridgeline (1G 2006-2014)
    Truck has 177,xxx miles on it and this morning, out of no where, it started knocking. The knock speeds up/slows down with engine noise but never goes away. I have read everything from "it's normal", which I know it isn't, to "hydraulic timing belt tensioner" and that the engine needs...

    Hi guys, have any of you tried to remove the rear engine mount of your ridge? I have a 08 RT and I have been searching how to remove it but I did not find anything yet. I figure how to remove the other mounts but the rear one, honestly, seems that I need to tear out a bunch of stuff just to...
  19. 1G Under The Hood / Performance
    So my '07 has about 45000 on it, and a couple months ago it started doing this thing where right when I start the truck, it sometimes makes this very slight engine groan from idle up to about 1500 rpm ("Woooawww", like a long mouthed "wow"), after which it vanishes. After I drive it for a few...
