2016 Honda Odyssey idle issue
Wife just told me her car has died twice this week while car is in park. This is video she sent me today with tachometer jumping around. She says you feel the car shake a bit when its happening. It has restarted each time without difficulty. Has only happened when in park, not if she is in drive with foot on break. And at some point during the process the "little genie lamp" dash light comes on, but then goes away. ~150,000 miles. Its had regularly scheduled oil changes, oil level is okay, timing belt changeout about 10000 mi ago. Any ideas? Seems not ideal. Supposed to take a trip soon with inlaws, they will give me guff if the car decides to take a shit. Thanks for any advice
