Shoulder Wear on Michelin

PAX System

™

Tires May Just Be

Normal

Some ’05–06 Odyssey Touring model owners have

come into Honda dealerships with concerns of

early tire wear on the shoulder areas of their

Michelin Energy LX4 PAX System tires. After

careful analysis of several of the tires that were

returned for this problem, it was concluded the

tires had plenty of service life remaining and

shouldn’t have been replaced.

The tread design on Michelin PAX System tires is

similar to conventional Michelin Energy LX4 tires,

but it’s got a taller rubber “bridge” linking the

tread blocks in the shoulder area. Normal wear on

this tire may result in the shoulder ribs looking

like they’re wearing out faster than the rest of the

tread area. This results in a tire that looks like it’s

short on tread in the shoulder area while the rest

of the tire looks fine.

To avoid needless tire replacement, your

dealership should thoroughly inspect the tire,

especially the shoulders. You can safely drive on a

PAX System tire with smooth-looking shoulders

until the tread depth in the main longitudinal

grooves reaches the wear bar indicators. Of

course, if the steel cables are showing, that tire is

shot and it’s got to be replaced.

A measurable difference of 2/32 of an inch

between the tire’s outer and center longitudinal

grooves points to other possible causes for rapid

tire wear: misalignment, wrong tire pressure, lack

of proper tire rotation, or aggressive driving. Take

corrective action, and replace that tire as

appropriate.

With proper use and maintenance, Michelin

Energy LX4 PAX System tires have proven to wear

similarly to conventional Michelin Energy LX4

tires. So let your service customers know that

rotating the tires at the recommended service

intervals, keeping them properly inflated, and

avoiding aggressive driving helps to ensure a long

service life and trouble-free performance.

Handling Tips

Ridgelines.

Navigation system DVDs can be easily scratched

or damaged if you don’t handle them properly,

and they’re not exactly cheap to replace. So here

are some important handling tips you need to

remember:

• Don’t eject the DVD from the navigation unit

unless you really need to. The drive is simply

not designed to load and eject disks again and

again.

• Always handle the DVD by its edges or by its

center hole. Never touch the media side (the

side that’s opposite the label). Fingerprints

smudge the DVD’s surface, making it hard for

the navigation unit to read the disk.

• After you eject the DVD, make sure you

identify it with the VIN and store it in a plastic

jewel case or an envelope. With some

navigation units, if you load a navigation DVD

that’s got the wrong software version (for

example, an ’06 version in a ’05 vehicle),

you’re loading software that can’t be

removed. Also, loading the wrong color DVD

(for example, an orange one instead of a white

one) can result in an error message or cause

symptoms that can be mistaken for a

navigation hardware problem.
