Any Honda Odyssey owners here?
Looking to get an Odyssey with a third baby on the way. Most likely going for the 2nd Gen (99-04).
But my biggest concern is the tranny. Honda is known for monkey knowledge on AT V6 tranny's. Any issues you guys have had?
Thought about the first Gen (95-98) to keep the 4cly, but everything I find is too high in miles or my taste. Plus I've got 2 Accords and wanna dump the F Series. I never had luck with it.

i work for a honda shop and have been around oddy's quite a bit. They're really great but your suspicion about the transmissions would be correct. Honda has released a TSB along with a kit which replaces the transmission filler bolt with a cooler line to dump atf on second gear, and it helps them out a great deal. So when looking for your van look to see if this update has been performed and if not, insist that is it. Otherwise, they're great, fast as hell, and i love throwin em sideways in corners
i work for honda as well the ody is a great van and keep in mind that any under 110,000 miles all it will tAKE IS ONE PHONE CALL TO CUSTOMER RELATOINS AND THEY WILL probably help you out with the trans it has been my exp 02-04 have less problems than 99-01 plus the 02 -04 has more hp. if i were in the market i would deff look for 02-04 hope this was helpfull.good luck
