I have a 2003 Honda Pilot, that is leaking oil?? and I can't find where it is leaking from. It is all over the wheel well of the driver's side and all over the underbody. I looked under the car just behind the wheel on the driver's side and there is a very porous/ rough metal pan-looking thing and there is a small triangular piece of metal missing from the top. Can you tell me what this particular piece is and could I be loosing oil from there? There is a round flat drain(?) in the middle of it, but it isn't like any other drain I've seen on a car. I am a woman, if you couldn't tell. - Thanks - Cheryl

I just had my cam shaft seal replaced and then they put a bracket to hold it in place, I have a 99 Honda Accord LX, they didn't start putting the brackets on until around 2000. My cam seal just popped out that's the purpose for the bracket.

may be a relay switch, or a faulty wire on the right side behind the glove box

It's likely the heat shield for the catalytic converter. There's really no repair for it. Mechanics won't usually spot weld it and they can't remove it. Apart from a little rattle now and then, there's really nothing to worry about.

Step 1 Take everything out of the glove box on the passenger side. Squeeze the black clips on either side of the glove box interior to free it from its retainer and pull it toward you. It will glide forward on hinged arms. Lower it as much as possible so it's out of your way.

Step 2 Identify the gray plastic bar that runs from left to right across the bottom of the glove box opening. This is a piece of plastic molded to the rest of the glove box assembly, but it covers up a removable bar that is mounted directly in front of the cabin air filter case. You'll have to cut this plastic bar off with a razor knife to proceed. Fortunately, this isn't too difficult; just cut carefully and steadily, and make your cuts as close as possible to the ends of the bar.
