Hello friends,

My brother bought the van listed above 2018/2019 3.6V6 EX-L after an accident. I need to know the alignment specifications as well as complete alignment procedures.
It is the van from USA and my service do not have this car in option car which can choose (I don't know how it explain in English). He needs to know all technical data which relates to wheel alignment - degree, mm, tilt angle, wheel alignment 0 or - or + (how many mm). I don't know how it all name, but it should be data values from. Mm or degree to. Mm or degree.
I am waiting for yours reply.
Have a nice day,
Pawel

Hello,

For proper inspection and adjustment remember to release the parking brake. Also this specifications are for the factory setup, if the suspension is modified they will not work.
Verify the tire pressure before getting started.

I have attached the alignment procedures and specifications (look below).

Please let me know of any questions.

Thank you.

Hello again,

I have a question about VSA. There is VSA procedure after wheel alignment on the last page. Could you please add a full descriptor about VSA procedure? And could you please tell me if there are in Odyssey other systems which I should set or reset after wheel alignment procedure?

Hello,

In order to do the VSA relearn procedure it actually requires a HDS (Honda Diagnostic System) scanner. You will simply have to connect the scanner and follow the prompts (look below).
Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.

Hello again,

I have a question about VSA again. This VSA system works like ESP for VW, Audi? And when there is an error VSA afer wheel alignment this VSA relearn procedure is like erase/clear error (like misfire error which I clear by only one step - "clear")? Or there are a few steps which I have to do in sequence (like B224F-54 error -Missing Calibration, not one step to clear the error - I have to learn the window top and bottom position and then "clear").
I am asking again because I have seen on youtube that someone clear this VSA error by specific pushing VSA button only, without other tools.

Hello,

As far as clearing the VSA error I am not aware of any method without the scan tool. But I am sure there are ways to by pass the tool and push buttons in certain sequence that can do the job.
Let me know if you are able to get it taken care of following that video.

Hello,

It was surprise - after replacing the rear suspension all errors/faults' indicators disappeared :-)
I did not set wheel alignment yet, but it looks okay. I am thinking that the wheel alignment is not 100% right position. And I have not to clear VSA error/fault, but I have to VSA relearn procedure to do.
Could you please explain step by step how it to do?

That's good that the error codes went away.
See attached for the VSA relearn. Keep in mind that you will need a scan tool to perform this.

Dear SQM - I did not understand you well.
The first picture is about How to enter VSA System Maintenance Mode (5 dots and 1-7 steps). And third picture is about VSA Sensor Neutral Procedure Memorization. There are only two steps. What are the next steps? What is difference between Maintenance Mode (I think without HDS) and Procedure Memorization (with HDS)?

The Neutral Procedure Memorization does only have 2 steps. As the rest will be prompted on the scan tool (if you look at the #2 step, it states that).

The vehicle needs to be entered to the Maintenance mode in order to perform the neutral position memorization.
There are few conditions needs to be met before the can go to the maintenance mode. See the attached information.

Let me know if this answers your questions.
Thanks.

I found that X-431 scan tool perform this procedure as HDS. It is link:https://www.launchtech.co.uk/common-procedure-pdf/Honda%20Vehicle%20Stability%20Assist%20neutral%20memorisation%20procedure.pdf
Is it the same as HDS?

That should work. I think that X431 covers most brands.
