2 Answers
The fuel filler switch in the 2009 Odyssey is located under the driver's seat. Here are some additional details: 1. Performance Overview: The Odyssey is an MPV model under Honda, equipped with a new hybrid powertrain. The advantages of the Odyssey model lie in its spacious interior and excellent fuel economy. 2. Feature Introduction: The Odyssey comes with a 2.4L engine, featuring a satellite navigation system, an 8-inch large display screen, and voice guidance. It utilizes a 2.4L iVTEC high-performance engine with variable valve timing and lift. The 5-speed automatic transmission in the Odyssey shifts precisely with minimal pause, and it also includes a cornering transmission lock function to prevent gear skipping during turns, enhancing safety.
I've been driving a 2009 Odyssey for several years, and its fuel filler door release is actually located on the floor just below the driver's seat. When you're seated in the driver's position, extend your left foot and you'll feel a small pull ring or plastic handle in the footwell area, right next to your left ankle. It's usually attached to a metal rod on the vehicle body. Pulling this switch will pop open the fuel filler door near the rear wheel, allowing you to operate it directly during refueling without getting out of the car or fumbling for other buttons. This design is quite thoughtful as it prevents accidental operation, especially avoiding unintended opening while driving. However, don't pull too hard when using it, as excessive force might break or jam the mechanism. If the switch becomes unresponsive, it could be due to dust accumulation or wear - I recommend regularly cleaning the area under the seat to keep it clear. Overall, this feature in the Odyssey is quite user-friendly, making the driving experience more convenient.
