I have two old screwdriver s with rounded edges I use for popping out seals. They work great and dont scratch cam or crank journals. I would inspect everything first with belt and covers off. If the seals arent leaking, dont worry do them next time. Its low enough mileage that you will be ok most likely. Worst case you have to pull belt and do it again in 15k or something like that. Oil pump isnt a big deal to reseal at all. No real skill needed there just the right tools. Take yourntime use the appropriate timing marks and double check yourself and you will be fine.

We always put new on front, its from ba k when my boss my shop foreman for honda he did it that way 20 years ago he aint changing now. I put tires where they are going to keep you safest. Not where the person up front tells me. I dont care what a customer thinks. Its my job on the line not theirs. If they dont like it , they can learn to rotate their own tires.

Everytime I read something like this it amazes me at how sensitive these cars are to such minute things as a t belt roller. In my 10 plus years as a pro mechanic I have do e maybe two honda belt rollers ever. Almost every suby I mess with needs them done though or didnt get them done in time. Glad you found the issue.

I work on lots of Honda odysseys and they will make noise like hebis describing when you really get down on the brakes . its just a lot of vehicle to stop. We usually just tell people to deal with it or brake earlier. Even with factory pads I have heard it so its just the nature of the beast. With his outback being lighter I doubt he will have any issues.
