Anyone else have the problem of shuddering in the 2005-2010 Honda Odyssey transmission? I have a '06 and it usually happens around 1300-1500rpm and around 35-50km/hr. Read in some forums that the problem is in the torque converter. I can hear a slight judder at 1300 - 1500 rpm but I hope it won't get worse. I think all Odyssey's have this characteristic and it is a design flaw on the powertrain. I was wondering if anyone has had the torque converter changed out and has the shuddering gone away.

Does it happen when the transmission shifts? The family has a 05 odyssey with 101***km and the only thing i find is that the transmission dosn't shift as smooth as when it was new.

Are they seriously still making that garbage van?
Wow...After years of complaints about the poor transmissions in these vans...I would have thought people would have learned.

first off, it isnt really a slight shudder, it feels pretty hard, you definately feel it
assuming you have automatic transmission, then yes it does sound like torque converter. TQ's are pretty cheap, get a low pro transmission jack, unbolt the few bolts, put a new one in, and hope for the best
when you do, i highly recommend draining all the fluid as you dont want old fluid in the new torque converter.
if you got a hoist and it is even easier (im poor so i got a low pro tranny jack)
