I've been doing some major work to a ridgeline recently,and I've got to say there's nothing easy about it. That could be said about most modern vehicles,but man it seems that engine was shoehorned in leaving little room to work. Instead of a v-6 why not a inline four of the same displacement and power? There would be fewer moving parts, and a lot more room to work if need be.

Why do you keep posting this? This engine has been in use forever???

Well if it bothers you that much I will keep posting it. P. O.

It just seems really dumb to complain about something that almost every vehicle made today has. Name a vehicle produced that is easy to work on.

If nobody talks about a problem nothing gets done about it. Your going to accept what they sell you without question. Maybe your dumb.

Seems odd someone would supposedly do their own timing belt, have it run great, then have a bolt fall off and ruin his engine would complain in repeated threads about the engine. The engine should be starting threads about the guy that worked on it. Poor truck.

No, but who is he to tell me what I should or shouldn't post. If he doesn't like it read something else.

Really? Why would a nut fall off I never touched? It was on the crank sensor. Get your facts straight.

This community is not about bashing the truck or its members. I just find it offputting when I come on here to read threads and you have posted the same thing in multiple threads that has zero benefit to anyone.

Am I supposed to say only good things about the truck? I'm going through an expensive time consuming repair, why can't I vent a little?

Don't say I bashed any member, I never did or would.

Instead of posting it in five different threads why not just try to stick to one.

Maybe I'm mentally unstable from working on a engine all weekend instead of snowmobiling.

A pic of what?

The nut that fell off? Your friends engine apart? Anything at this point.

 

[speedlever]

Keep the discussion civil or I will close the thread.

'nuff said.
