I can’t believe Honda world make such a low quality part. There qc is bad compared to the older hondas. I got a ‘18 2.0t accord sport but I am not sure if mine is leaking. I am interested to change the pcv valve though since my oil consumption seems rather quick. Just had an oil change done 3 weeks ago but now my maintenance meter says 15% that’s ridiculous. First time this has happened for the 6 years I owned my vehicle purchased brand new from dealer and kept up with maintenance. Is changing the valve cover something a rookie like me could do? You make it look so easy but idk if it’s not necessary id rather not 😅 just the pcv valve since I ready those are best replaced at 60k I’m on 75,600 miles now
Im like going crazy rn should i be worried ive been running a 93 phearable tune for like 2 months seems fine no knocks, im at 83k miles so idk if this is something i should orr
Check the back of the engine, near the intake manifold. That's the common spot where it leaks out of. If it's a major puddle, I'd go ahead and get it done, its an easy job to tackle for peace of mind
@@Qius_Cars yea i just did catch can so it seems like it wouldnt be bad, got this boy at a good price so idc if it starts giving me trouble, been looking at some 10speed rebuilds
33k when done, no need for a valve adjustment yet! Could’ve gotten away without replacing even with the valve cover leak, but it’s a good reason to paint one 🙂
Awesome video! Thanks for the upload ❤ I will definitely rewatch this in the near future if i ever run into this issue. Btw Do you know what usually causes these kind of leaks on the 2.0t accords and type Rs and how to prevent it? Also, at what milage did you start to notice the leaks? My 22 2.0t is at 7k miles. Stock with the exception of a afe drop in filter and ktuner stage 2. Thanks!
There doesn't really seem to be a prevention step for these motors, it's likely just a bad manufactured gasket. I've seem people either have the issue or don't, but thankfully if you do, it's not a major problem. I'd keep an eye on it if you do have a leak towards the rear where the intake manifold is. If it starts leaking in the front I'd say that's when you want to replace it!
My guy. You know how hard I had to look on the internet for a video like this. Thank you bro 😎
Ive been seeing alot of valve cover leaks lately - pin hole size - but alot of guys get the stupid "small boost leak detected" lol
Good stuff man
Thanks for the PCV valve tip. Piece of cake!
Glad to hear it was helpful!
Man! Good Shheeee, thank you for Bringing me to chasing j’s, that’s where I’m getting my engine cover and so on
Great instructional video. Would it be possible to change the cams while you are in there?
You’d be able to access a good amount of the bolts, but I’d imagine you’d have to still take the timing cover off the side to hold the chain still
another banger. for how packed the engine bay is, it seems not to bad to work on.
Thank you sir 🙂 not too bad compared to a boxer engine right 😉
Thanks for this! whats the part number for the PCV valve?
Good job,isn’t the gasket a full rubber/silicone that covers the whole cover
Where did ya get the valve cover I’m gonna do mine soon
Hey man, thanks for the vid. Do you have a link to those titanium bolts?

Nice job. How many miles? Have you had the valves adjusted?
33k when done, no need for a valve adjustment yet! Could’ve gotten away without replacing even with the valve cover leak, but it’s a good reason to paint one 🙂
Did you replace the valve cover gasket? I didn’t see a new one get installed?
Yeah it came with a brand new gasket
Why use the silicon
You need a valve cover gasket?
Where did you get that valve cover, id love one in a shiny metal color
Bought a spare one from Honda and painted it at home with VHT paint
Does j’s racing valve cover fk8 have the correct fitment on the accord 2.0t
Yep it does! Just gotta pay the extra premium for it 🥲
@@Qius_Cars
Awesome brotha! Just wanted to clarify
Why did you go from the Mishimoto inlet to the Prl inlet?
Mishimoto one had bad paint flake that was a pain to warranty from them
Why car's gonna leak??? 😱😱
Yours is totaled, I’ll buy it for 5k
