Thanks! The Pilot has very successfully erased the Tribute from memory. Actually, it's my wife's and she does like it much better than the Mazda.Originally Posted by Waugh-terfall

It looks like the love child of a Grand Cherokee and a Toyota Highlander.
Not too shabby though.
A little, and it's on steroids as it's bigger than both.Originally Posted by Spastik_Roach

Quite nice
it was a terribly average car, in such a competitive market too.Originally Posted by Coventrysucks

Aaaah, I see, we had some kind of hose break loose after having had my Dad's old '99 Audi A6 1.8T serviced at a local garage then having left it in Gatwick Airport NCP Long Stay Car Park for 2 weeks, driving home, 8miles left, a motorcyclist pulls along side and says 'there is smelly fluid leaking from your car sir, just thought I'd tell you', just as he pulled away a vast array of warning lights and bleepers chimed and flashed. Pulled into a supermarket cpk, popped the bonnet to be met with a huge cloud of hot, smells anti-freeze or something, mechanic fixed it but driving home the accesory belt snapped having had the machanic's screw driver of which he'd left in the engine bay had gone through it... New hose and it was good as new. No problems as suck with the '05 A6 2.4-V6 otherthan eccesive front tire wear due to the amount of manouvers required to park and remove from our driveway...
HONDA PILOT FTW!!!!

That sucks about the mechanic having left his tools in the engine compartment. The incident in the Tribute happened within a week or so after having it serviced. Impossible to prove without any wrenches lying around in the crime scene but I had my suspicions.
You were lucky the 1.8T didn't overheat enough to damage it. The Tribute didn't fare as well. After the overheating, the Tribute was just not the same.
In the final analysis it was a blessing in disguise. Pilot>Tribute
