What if exceeds towing capacity? What would happen?
We have a 2014 Honda Civic sedan lx CVT with my uncle 3700 lbs trailer and car can still brake, maneuver, steer and handling well, there's nothing risk about exceeds that much weight, and tow hitch receiver nothing risk exceeds that weight,
my friend says is ok if exceeds car towing capacity as long drive slow and up to 100 miles
You will destroy your transaxle if the load is too big and it won't be covered under warranty.
Too risky. You could cause damage to both the transaxle and the engine. Any damage you would cause would not be coverage by your Honda warranty.
Good way to destroy the transmission.
In addition to the suspension, your engine and transmission may require additional cooling capacity and additional horsepower and stiff rear suspension to haul a bigger load as well. On a steep incline, you will notice a greater load on the engine and transmission, which is also causing greater stress on the body and frame, since on many cars, it's all one piece, and it can be rip apart if the stresses are too great. When the manufacturer provides an upper stress or load limit, there's a reason for it, and there's a safety factor built in, so it can be slightly exceeded, but not greatly exceeded.
Therefore, yes, you can pull more than RELATED towing capacity, works very well, but it's not recommended for long uphill distances on your area, due of stressful terrain to cause overheat. If you are going the distance, stay within the safety guidelines. And be safe.
The drive train may not be able to handle more than the rated capacity. You are practically doubling the vehicle's weight and the chassis may not be up to the job either with regular strength components.
- What would happen if I did this prank to a car dealership? Say that in the middle of the night I broke into a Chevy dealership, and the Honda dealership across the street from it. I locate the keys, and move all the Chevys to the Honda dealership, and all the Hondas to the Chevy dealership. Then the next morning when the folks at the dealership arrive, they discover that they are in possession of all the other dealerships cars. Lol what would come of that?
- 2004 Honda Pilot! I did an oil change today check the manual for the engine oil capacity, it is 4.8 liters and put 4.4 liters and add .5 ltr? Total engine oil put is 4.9 liters and I'm surprised the dipstick is above the second hole by 10mm. Is it overfill or do i need to remove some?

- Why does my fuse keep blowing in my cigarette lighter when it exceeds the factory specs? I bought a Satechi sound-fly AUX FM modulator, which plugs into my cigarette lighter. It includes a 500mA fuse and a replacement. Both of these blew out. I tried a 2 Amp and a 5 Amp. They blew out as well. I drive a 2003 Honda CR-V, and the lighter is 12V.
