I had a 1997 Chevy Venture which I loved. I turned it back after 3 years and leased a 2000 Venture which was not made as well as the 1997. Couldn't wait to turn it back for fear of transmission problem. I leased a 2003 Odyssey EX in Feb. and was thrilled with all aspects of it except the annoying power sliding doors. Now with 17,000 miles on it, it shifts differently each time I drive it. Sometimes it shifts smoothly with no feel of hold back, other times it goes into gear and it feels like I am driving with the brakes on. When you drive forward and then take your foot off the gas pedal, the van feels like something is holding it back. It's as if you are driving in low gear. I have an appointment with the dealer this week and was wondering if you had this occur? Is this a transmission or some electrical sensor problem? Other than that, the struts seem to be weakening already when a load is on it. Otherwise, I am very happy with the van. Thanks Mike C.
