Worth adding:
There’s always a torque sequence for valve covers and plastic/aluminum components.
If you’re ever uncertain (or don’t have the FSM available)…
Start from the inside locations and move back and forth across, fanning outward along the perimeter.
OP here used an air ratchet and ran the bolts down in a sequential perimeter.
This can lead to flexing or distortion of the valve cover, and possible damage.
At minimum… A failure to fully seal the perimeter of the cylinder head.
Final torque is around 7lb/ft or 86inch pounds. Follow the sequence described above to get it right.
Viewers need to know this. (No guessing)
Hope this helps some fellow Honda owners.
Cheers. 🍻
Very good addition!
I've been jumping between 3 different videos trying to figure out how to get this done and what tools Id need to do it. I even ended up with the full gasket set instead of just the gasket and o-ring. I wish I would've came across this video a week or two ago. Yours is the only one that actually shows how to get those clips out. Thank you!
Just the video I'm looking for. same engine as my odyssey 2014 2.4L. Thanks dude!
This is an AWESOME video! You made this look so simple. I wish every teacher would teach as you did. Good Job!
Watched a few of these and this video is the best one.
Good video im getting ready to do this job! A 1st on Focused Hands. Seems simple enough
I’ve watched many videos on how to replace a valve cover gasket. This is the clearest and simplest one. Great job and hopefully you can do one on how to replace an alternator on the newer Hondas like 2015- present.
I will as soon as I get one

I just finished doing the valve cover gasket on my Honda. The video was abt 90% the same bc my car is a CRV. The video helped a lot. 🤝
Hello, thank you for the video. I did have one question, the black plastic cover dressing, over the coils has two stripped screws. My question is, what do you think is the best route for me to take that off. I planned on just replacing the whole valve cover, but of course i need that cover to be off in order to access the plugs and sensors. Thanks again.
There are 2 different valve covers for those vehicles. The one with the replaceable tube seals and the one without. It's crazy because I'm a Honda Tech (was from 01-06 then a shop owner from 06-now) and I don't understand how they did this. It doesn't matter if it's a LX, EX, or Sport. I have seen 14 accord and 15 Accords with both. Once you are in the Honda parts catalog using the Vin you can't choose the tube seals for the ones that aren't replaceable.... but once you have a vin that the tube seals are replaceable and choose the entire valve cover the part number switch to the one with the non replaceable tube seals (12310-RDF-A01) I think the are interchangeable but I'm not sure
I have the built in type, I found the gasket but cant find the little square looking one for the inside. Can I use silicone like this guy or is it crucial to replace? Also, should I just replace the vtec solenoid gasket while I’m at it?
@Abel GomezJr just get the gasket from honda the part number should be 123425A2A01. Just take you vin number and have them look it up. That small gasket is like $2.00 from Honda. Don't worry about the Vtec solenoid unless it is leaking. If it's leaking just replace the VTEC Solenoid gasket and orings.
Honda part number 12030-5A2-A01 gives you all the tube seals valve cover gasket etc.
Why didn’t the o rings work out? I have a 2014 accord sedan that I need to do this on
Hey @Jabo. I just recently had my dealership do this and now I have a "Check Engine" light on my dash. Can you tell me what could be the problem?
I did this once a couple years ago and it’s almost looking like I see a little oil around the gasket already. It’s a very small amount us that just normal or do I have another leak?
So I need this done on my honda accord. I'm not a car guy, not gonna lie, watched half the video thinking I could do this, saved it to watch later. Just watched it, and not super sure I should do this myself. Honda wanted $333 to fix the leak, the guy recomended a valve "adjustmet" for $399 or some sort of bull shit that didn't sound like a replacement. Do you know what they mean by that? Not even sure what the first thing they were recommending was. Is this something that I could take to just a regular shop, or should I just trust honda?
Valve adjustment at 110,000 miles so if your car has that many miles do it. That’s not a rip off
Do you have to empty the oil when replacing this valve cover gasket?
No
I got a P0304 code after I replaced mines
How was this fixed?
Total bs that's its not a recall my 2017 accord with 40k is leaking. Tesla please 🙏
Wait until you have a flat tire on your dream Tesla and a tire shop can't help you lol
@@chevtrukman 😂
I Hate to say this but you mean 2013-2017? 2018 on up only have 1.5 liter or 2.0 liter turbos.
My '18 CRV has this engine.
@@timc3665 ah. I was thinking accord
