Owner's manual or repair manual?

The owner's manual in the glovebox explains the controls and the service intervals. This is the other book, the one technicians work from:

• Owner's manual: controls, warning lights, maintenance schedule, fluid types
• Factory repair manual: diagnosis by trouble code, step-by-step repairs, tightening torques, wiring diagrams and connector views

Model year 2006 is part of the first-generation Pilot (2003–2008). Most procedures are shared with the other years of this generation, but options, software and wiring changed along the way, which is why the manual is built for your VIN.

Typical repairs for a 2006 PILOT

• Ignition components and idle problems
• Suspension bushings and steering play
• Cooling system overhaul
• Wiring harness, connector and ground repairs
• Rubber hoses, seals and gaskets
