Odyssey 2007 EX

The automatic door on the left side is making a bit of noise when it
closes (last foot or so, not all the way through). I looked to see if
there is anything obstructing -- couldn't find anything.

Is there a lubricant that I can apply? What else should I be looking at?

Thanks in advance.

Is the roller straight? One of our doors had the problem that the
roller got lopsided, and went ka-thunk.

There is at least one TSB out on the sliding door for this model. There may
be more.

Your car is very likely still under warranty. This is something the dealer
should be fixing, not you; let Honda pay for the repair.

A small washer fell off (and was lost) on the spring button/cable
located inside the gas door on my 07 Ody. (Besides the gas door not
springing open, the left rear sliding door wouldn't open because the
computer thought the gas door was open). It took me four trips to my
Honda dealer to get it fixed. Sometimes it's just easier to do it
yourself, even if the warranty covers it...
