The 2016 Honda Pilot: Engine repair
Your 2016 Honda Pilot needs engine work? We do not do mechanical work, but we arrange it and rent you a car meanwhile. Engine work ranges from a leak to a rebuild; the shop inspects the car and quotes it.
Your Pilot and the shop
If you have the service history of your Pilot, have it ready for the shop. Your owner's manual lists the maintenance schedule for the Pilot. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The 3.5L 6-cylinder, paired with a 9-speed automatic, drives it.
How the arrangement works
You agree the price with the shop before any work starts. Send a request with the car and what it needs; a person replies within one business day and arranges it with a trusted shop or recommends one. We do not set the shop's price or promise a date.
A car while yours is in the shop
We can have a rental ready the day your car goes in. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Between shop visits
Keep a record of every service; it helps the shop and adds value when you sell. Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Have the battery tested before winter if it is more than a few years old.
Getting a clear quote
Ask whether anything else is close to needing attention, and how soon. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Ask for a written estimate before any work starts.
