2007 Honda Pilot V6 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 8500 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have a 2007 Honda Pilot that pops when I start the vehicle. It doesn't pop everytime but when it does it's loud and it sounds like its coming from the back like a car backfiring. I have taken the vehicle into the Honda dealership (Germantown, MD) numerous times and they've put test equipment on it but no errors show up on the computer. The vehicle is still under warranty. Any suggestions?

Bruce, We also had the same noise in our Pilot. If it happens when you turn your key to the on position before it starts, it is the sub woofer being powered up. That driver powers your rear passenger/cargo area.
