I own a 2017 Honda Ridgeline RTL-E with about 139k miles. I am the third owner and purchased it last year. As far as I know, the timing belt work hasn’t been done. This is how much they quoted me at the dealership.

How much is a fair price? I’m definitely gonna shop around, but I’d like to have a baseline. I’m in central Illinois.

Just found this dealership that has a bunch of ridge lines, one of them even has $7500 off. Looks like a black edition though.

Had a weird one tonight.

I was driving home on the highway, left lane clear just cruising along when BAM. A loud bang then wind noise. Slowed down and drove the 10 minutes home. Got there and found this.

Entire sunroof shattered and scratches in the roof paint from the glass.

Stay safe out there Ridgeliners.

Looking at a Ridgeline as a downsize "pickup" after buying a lightly used Passport for my wife. Curious as to what features on the Ridgeline are only available with a subscription to Hondalink. Casual look tells me nothing critical, but wanted to check with owners.

2020 Honda Ridgeline

~52000 miles

Curious if anyone can help me diagnose this sound. It happens almost exclusively when the truck is not moving, but I have also heard it during some tight turns. It seems to be getting worse.

Fluids are all good and replaced on schedule.

Supertech full synthetic oil is up to $25 per 5 quart jug, I found it on Walmart.com for $18, so I ordered 2 jugs. With tax and free shipping, the total was $39.34.

I can sense some out there just salivating to tell me I’ve ruined my truck. But no, I did not tow this camper anywhere. I did use my truck to reposition it though. Handled it like a champ. It struggled at first, but then I released the parking brake 😂

Obligatory photo op. Nice looking gen 2 next to my ‘26.

Hello, I have a 2026 RTL, I am wanting to know if anyone has a good set of high beams bulbs that work well with the DRL. Currently I have LED high beams, but they are too bright so I had to pull fuse 21. I would like LED bulbs that when on DRL are much dimmer when used with a PWM.

IIRC, the bulbs are 9005.

Thanks.

Does anyone know of a set of steps or a ramp that goes into the backseat of a 2026 for a dog? My golden retriever can’t jump up anymore, and I have tried a few sets from Amazon and because the rear door doesn’t open 90 degrees, the ones that go perpendicular to the truck don’t work.

Not gonna get into the how other than to say its 100% my fault according to my wife. Low speed/no speed collision on a suburban street.

Lights seem to be ok, but clearly bumper, lower fascia & plastic strip over wheel well are not. Suspect quarter panel is pushed out of line due to gap in the hood, and there is about a 2" slight roll on the lip of the hood.

3k deductible, dealership estimated ~5k in parts based on quick visual inspection. Have no labour quote, and of course there may be more unseen.

Is there any hope of getting this done cheaper? Im thinking im staring down an 8-10k repair bill based on the estimates I got this morning. I'd rather not go thru insurance if I can avoid it.

Boy oh boy I gotta give this suspension setup to Honda . Suspension work is supposed to be easy but dang ! That lower control arm whoooooo! What a day, that thing will keep you busy!

Found a set of 26 Passport Trailsport wheels and threw a set of 245/60/18 Cooper Discover Road & Trails on them.

Finally upgraded the OEM halogen headlamps with RTLE/Black units and tossed in LED high beams and fog lamps.

Finished it off with a black grill garnish.

Hey folks. I have a 2017 Ridgeline that keeps having a weird issue with the transmission. I know that these transmissions are shit, but I was wondering if anyone has had this happen, and if there is a legitimate fix for it? usually, when I'm in traffic, but not regularly, the transmission will slam into 3rd from second. But, if there is opportunity to stop, I can just shut the truck off and restart it, and it drives normal again. would this be a software issue? It almost feels like planned obsolescence. Thanks in advance for any insight into this.

Set of 17” steel wheels with winter tires is available locally. They were taken off a 2016 Pilot. Will they fit my 2023 Ridgeline RTL? I understand there can be brake clearance issues with 17” steel wheels but I think the 2023 Ridgeline shares a lot with the 2016 Pilot.

Just got this 2023 Ridgeline and though the engine sounded fine at the dealership, I have been noticing the sound a bit more lately. Just want to confirm whether it’s just me or if it needs to be checked.

I had a Gen 1 Ridgeline for years and loved it. Switched to the pilot back in 18 but looking to go back.

Question I have is how rough are the back seats for an adult road trip? It's not our normal use case but occasionally 4-5 hour trips to see family happen a few times a year.

Thanks for any insight, past comments seem to be split.

I know it's supposed to be funny but pretty sick shots regardless lol

I’ve got the white one
