  1. General Honda Element Discussion
    I just want to know what aftermarket catalytic converters others have bought that have lasted the longest? NOT looking for an OEM part, or deep dive on other parts and stuff. Just want honest thoughts from those that are using aftermarket CATs that are still holding up well after more than...

  4. General Honda Element Discussion
    Hi there. I am looking for a 2010 EX exhaust OEM size. Outside diameter and inside diameter. Not the tip on the end of the exhaust. I want to put a 90 degree elbow on it but can’t find the right one to fit. Has anyone done this before? Any links to the correct stainless steel elbow? That’s...

    08 EX AT AWD, 179K. MPG has never been that great (it is a brick on wheels after all) but then again I haven't had the car long enough to notice a major decrease. Recently I stomped on it to pass someone and got a weird flapping sound on acceleration that did not go away, accompanied by a slowly...
  6. Problems & Issues
    Just had my cat converter stolen. Cleanly cut behind the sensor. Since the shop wants to replace the cat and back, are there any mods I should consider? I’d love more horsepower or less cabin noise. Would other Honda / Acura models have parts that would be considered an upgrade?
  7. Problems & Issues
    My tailpipe rusted off, my muffler is clanging around and my resonator is bent and banged up from years ago. I need to replace the exhaust up to the cat. OEM exhaust is $478 minimum. But I can get Walker 56124 on Amazon for $189. I want the exhaust to be quiet and efficient, not growly or can o...
  8. Problems & Issues
    Here is a video of what happens underneath when I start my 2004 244,000mi EX, and what I believe to be the source of my acceleration/deep engine noise. Am I missing a gasket?
  9. Problems & Issues
    My 2004 EX Element with 244,xxx miles started having this issue yesterday. I parked at a park (and shut the car off and got out to walk around..) and made a call, and went back to start my car and this happened: It didn't start, as if I had only turned the key to accessory, which I don't think...
  10. Greetings & Introductions
    Hello so I have been having this issue where if the car idles between 1300-1500rpm the resonator will sound like the screen is broken but any other rpm's it sounds fine I don't know if its the way its hanging/vibrating on the car that is making the sound plus the exhaust is making the sound more...
  11. Problems & Issues
    Howdy all. Lurker becoming a first time poster, though I wish it was under better circumstances. As a note, I do have the owner's and shop manuals. Due to tangentially related issues I decided to do a cylinder compression test today. (Slow coolant leak, rough idle on startup, P0303 thrown) I...
  12. Problems & Issues
    So I have the dreaded soft lobe exhaust camshaft problem mentioned here: http://www.elementownersclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=57922&highlight=exhaust+cam I removed my old exhaust camshaft, while keeping both camshaft sprockets on the timing chain, by letting the exhaust sprocket hold itself...
  13. Problems & Issues
    Hi Everyone, I have an '04 Element automatic 2WD with 211,000+ miles on the odo. Today, I replaced all of the mounts (3 engine, 1 transmission). That was necessary, as the rubber in the front mount and transmission mount were both cracked and I was getting a nasty vibration. While I was...
  14. Maintenance and Service
    My 2006 Element has about 220,000 miles on it, still getting between 20-23 mpg and the engine itself is as strong as ever. However just got home from a tour around Texas and my check engine light has come on. Codes P0420: Catalyst Efficiency below Threshold (Bank1) - I believe there is a...
  15. Under The Hood / Performance
    After my CAT got stolen off my rig, I decided to change it up a little bit and give my E a little more "rawness" I ordered a magnaflow exhaust system and decided to straight pipe it. She sounds like a BEAST now!:evil:
  16. Under The Hood / Performance
    So I currently know that both Gibson and Injen make quality exhausts for the Element and I was wondering which one was louder? I am looking for the loud sound on my Element and I was hoping you guys could chime in for some help? Thanks :)
  17. Problems & Issues
    Ok, so I JUST had belt replaced this morning, at a local shop and NOT at Honda. Cost me 99 dollars instead of several hundred. Woho! But, while I was there they noticed that the tailpipe is falling off. Like, hit's the ground when you go over a small bump FALLING OFF. But it doesn't seem to be...

  19. Under The Hood / Performance
    Just wondering if honda makes any performance parts that will not void my warranty. Looking to get an exhaust and intake but don't want to void my warranty. Is there such thing? Thanks.
  20. Under The Hood / Performance
    I am searching for anything and everything I can do to the EX in terms of performance upgrades. I've been on various websites looking for cold air intakes, exhaust systems, tuner/programmers, turbos, and am very new to the mod scene. From what I gather, 2009-2011 are the same identical engine...
