Well, after hearing the reason as to what you mention on the vibration on your pilot ( and after replacing the half shafts) I concluded this is the exact issue I'm dealing with a 03 Honda Element. Basically same construction as the Pilot. At speeds over 50mph on the Element, while turning left a vigorous vibration would occur and I bet the bearing has alot play because of the applied load being generated on the right hand side of the vehicle. This was a great tutorial and the step by step process. Really do appreciate you making this video.
Just purchased Vue with V6 Honda. Front frame mounts were rusted, had replaced mounts installed, slight vibration at 45 -50 mph. Thought might be axles being out of alignment, due to rusted mounts. Didn't realize there was an intermediate shaft bearing, thanks for the heads up 💡
Thanks Walter, I'm glad I can finally start giving back to the TH-cam community. Glad to hear that you did it and didn't get ripped off by the stealerships.
If you put the bearing in the freezer for a few hours and put the aluminum housing in the oven not more than 250 degrees the bearing should fall right in. Thanks for your video 👍
Thanks Adam.. That is absolutely perfect.. Thank you for the information and I'm sure you just saved someone a ton of extra time and less risk of damage to the new bearing. 👍✌️
Of course I don't have a nice bearing press in my garage. It's always nice to see alternative methods for the individual who doesn't have a machine shop at his disposal.
Trying to find one at an auto parts store but nobody can find one. 06 and up whole assemblies from 80$ why can't someone besides honda make one for a 03-05?! My pilot has 316k miles on it so I was trying to go as cheap as possible. Thanks for the video. Guess I'll be buying a bearing and seal
Please help ! Need to know how to pull the intermediate shaft ? should i loosen the bearing support on the engine block and pull both the intermediate shaft and the passenger cv axle at the same time or pull the cv axle first and then the intermediate shaft ? Not sure if they both have circ clips but it looked in the video as if the intermediate shaft did not have a circ clip on the end that went into the transaxle unless Danny G took it off after pulling it - though why pull it since it would have to be reinstalled any way. Thanks Garry
Hello Garry... You pull the CV axel off.. it pops right off the intermediate shaft. Then you can remove the support bolts and pop out the intermediate shaft.. hopefully this information helps you.
Any chance you have the part numbers for everything, so I can order what I need? I have a 03 honda pilot that is in dire need of the intermediate shaft bearing to be replaced...
Hey I'm having some issues with my odyssey. It sounds like a growling noise coming from middle/passenger side of vehicle. It happens at around 20 mph and up. All suspension is tight. I have the right axle and carrier bearing bracket out. How can I tell if this bearing is bad?
With it on the vehicle unfortunately not really accurate.. when I had said in the video " we have virtual replaced everything" except the intermediate shaft. When I had finally removed the shaft, after removing the bearing, that's when I knew , If you see in the video the play that was on the bearing.. Sorry for the long answer to your question but unless you remove your passenger side CV shaft and try to see if you have wiggle or play on the intermediate shaft(which mine did not ) there is no way I had found that was the obvious sign.. it's not easy like knowing when you have a bad wheel bearing. Like I said if you have replaced your CV shafts already and still have the issue, chances are it's the bearing on the intermediate shaft.. hope this helps you ✌️
Using the way Adam stated would be the safest way to do it with a hammer.. putting the aluminum housing in the oven along with freezing the bearing. Just be very careful that you don't damage the bearing.. good luck .
@@13thDevil how did it go? I don’t have a press at home. I’m thinking of just taking the shaft with bearing, seals, and clips to a local shop with a press and have them deal with it.
Hey Derek.. looking at the intermediate shaft for a 97 cr-v I'd say the procedure looks the same. My recommendation would be to look up the replacement parts for that shaft. You can probably use this video as a guide for removal and installation of the new parts. If you have a local Honda dealership near you , they would be able to pull up the parts list , it would look similar to the picture out of my service manual that you see in this video.. hope this helps you ✌️
@@Dannyglaze I appreciate it I replaced everything front wheel bearings ball joint tie rod and I think the rear ends howling don't know if it's the wheel bearings or the differential
@@derekwilson8011 Hey quick question.. when you just said howling.. my 04 element had that same annoying howling noise.. did you change your dual pump fluid in the rear? If not that could be the issue, if you did recheck the level of the fluid on a level surface.
I’m starting to think this is my issue. I’ve swapped the passenger CV axle 3 times and writhing 5 miles I start getting vibration and rumble. It’s especially noticeable when making left hand turns. Do you have a list of part numbers for an 03 Pilot?

Wow thank you very kindly, I owe you a huge steak and a beer, you saved me SO MUCH $$$$ . Thanks again Walt
Thanks for your help with all the work
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It is tremendously helpful.
Beast mode. This video helps a ton
Dude this is the best Video on youtube OMG THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH
Good job! Thanks for sharing your experience.
highly recommend the bearing press kit from HF, it contains various sizes that fit the inner and outer bearing races
Purchased after doing this job... Absolutely a great purchase.

No problem Erik.. yeah I ran into that problem years ago. Good luck, hopefully it fixes the vibration..
Hey thanks for the video I got to do this on a 06 rsx
excellent video thank you

Thanks for putting this video together! Well done.
Thank you Scott , appreciate the positive feedback. Hopefully it saved you some money and you had fun doing it.

Excellent. Thanks 🙏

I have a 03 honda pilot that is in dire need of the intermediate shaft bearing to be replaced...
I'll list them in the comments. 👍 The bolts are optional , but if you've worked on a Honda older then 5 years , then you can expect a sheared bolt 🔩
I know may seem silly but is there a specific way to place the bearing so it rotates a certain direction?
Hey Anthony.. not silly.. no there was no specific way for that bearing.
Is it necessary to install new bolts and c-clips?
Hello. No it is not necessary. I've learned with any vehicle that is over 10 years old to be prepared.
Great,
Like a boss
Video is mirrored?
I believe some parts were mirrored. I originally had the help of a"camera person"

Did you solve this on your odyssey? I have something very similar on my pilot. I thought it was tire noise until I replaced the tires.
Is it very possible to do this without a press? Can I use basic hammer to punch out the bearing and punch it back in?
Using the way Adam stated would be the safest way to do it with a hammer.. putting the aluminum housing in the oven along with freezing the bearing. Just be very careful that you don't damage the bearing.. good luck .
@@Dannyglaze I will try it out, I was going to try it regardless but just wanted some encouragement.

I’m starting to think this is my issue. I’ve swapped the passenger CV axle 3 times and writhing 5 miles I start getting vibration and rumble. It’s especially noticeable when making left hand turns. Do you have a list of part numbers for an 03 Pilot?
The part numbers are all listed below.
Every time you replace cv you have to replace this one also the inner
