This 2005 Honda Odyssey marks the return of Fixing it Forward to my channel. This time, instead of fixing up an existing vehicle, I purchased this 2005 Odyssey to fix up and give away to someone who needs it. It still needs some work, but it’s nice to have some extra time to do that and make sure everything is as good as it can be before I give it away.
Stay tuned for future episodes covering the repairs and also when I give this van away to someone who needs it.

Wow, that's a disgusting interior… and in general a tired ass looking car…
I had to come find part 1 in order for part 2 to make sense, part 1 slipped by me
ChrisFix needs to superclean that interior.
I love Fixing it Forward.
I loved the first fixing it forward series, Glad to see its made a return and that the yt algorithm put it in my feed! Your a great guy Eric.
Can you please give me some suggestions? My ex husband gave me an 07 DTS Cadillac. The Northstar engine has to be pulled to replace the oil pan gasket, for $2800. I’ll never be able to afford that with Medicare, so what do I do? I have never sold a car except through trade ins. Any ideas?
Many times false diagnosis will get you a Honda for cheap. I don’t understand they’re extremely simple to work on.
God Bless you Eric ! I Sure enjoy your channel but this project is great .. Thanks
I'm so happy this is back!
What's that all about? Many many bad taco Tuesday's 🌮!
Love you so much from morocco God bless you ☺❤
That thing looks like it went through a flood.
Could you machine the rotors if the thickness was in spec?
Thank you Eric, I learnt how to fix my cars on your videos. Thank you Sir.
U don’t make any mechanical videos anymore
Excellent series – thank you for doing the Odyssey. Do you have any preference for wheel bearing brands (besides Honda)? I was thinking of Timken for a couple new rear bearings on my '03 Odyssey…
Well, at least we now know u have a Smsung smartphone 🤣
I just wont tell you what my stepson did to "repair" the battery terminals on an old van, but I will say it involved cutting the factory cords with a steak knife, and somehow connecting a completely different battery.
Awesome video on the fixing it forward Series @EricTheCarGuy
Looks like a nice mini van nicer then most of my vehicles so much mud in my vehicles
The engine sounds good to me interesting how it was labeled and blown engine 🤔 defenitly sounds rough during throttle @EricTheCarGuy
Looks like your loving them Gearwrench bolt biterz sockets Eric @EricTheCarGuy
