One of the best explanations of this procedure. Of ten times we see leaks underneath a V6 Honda/Acura vehicle and don’t where to look. It’s often this VTEC solenoid and the valve cover gaskets that need some TLC.
Thank you for the video. The repair took me about 3 hours. 1 of which was the electrical connector on the bracket. I couldn't get the second gray piece off to save my life. New gasket is in didn't fire it up yet but fingers crossed
This just happened to my 2002 odyssey thanks for the video easy fix I was scared at first ready to take to garage
Very helpful video. This is exactly what i needed to see to fix my issue.
Very helpful video, perfection to the detail 👍
Great video! There is also another gasket on the solenoid on top of that assembly and an O-ring on the VTEC switch. If you're replacing the gasket, it would good to change those, too. Just my two-cents. Thanks for the video!
Thanks for mentioning that detail with u on that
The fel pro gasket set comes with both of those O rings.
Man, you are one awesome dude. Thank you very much for this post. Most people show the upper spool valve above the alternator. Mine was below making me think it was my oil pan leaking.
Thank you🙂 so glad to be able to help
Best video on this job..
Thank you my friend
Great Video very visible an explained.... Thanks
Well done video , Thank you for your help sir .
Very informative video. I will do mine too thanks buddy
Thank you🙂 hope all goes well. Good luck
Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
Love your video's
Perfect thank you
Real nice video
thank you🙂
The most difficult part is unplugging one of two plastic plugs so that is does not dangle and become completely detached from the plastic fitting plug-Do this first before unbolting the 3-main metric bolts. The other plug that has the green plastic is fairly easy to reach and unplug but the other is not and its a real pain in the ass to reach. Also the green plug and be loosened up just below with a common open end wrench and there is a small o-ring inside there. Purchase the gasket set $18 and it will have all 3-gaskets.
The main larger gasket with filter is what hardens like a pretzel and causes the oil leak not the o-ring or other smaller gasket.
Very true, most videos forget the O-ring gasket.
Great video. What year is this Odyssey?
Thanks!
Great informative video and soothing voice! I am going to pull the actual solenoid and replace the 2 o-rings, also. Just in case. Thanks!
Great plan👍 and thank you🙂
I've gotta do this on next oil change...😒
Thank you for easily showing the process, just finished resealing this on my 2010 MDX because it was going through a quart every 3 weeks from dripping/leaking. Advanced auto sells a whole seal kit for $20 lucky me I got the last one in stock at my local store! part no. TCS 46026
Glad to be able to help🙂 thank you
Hello Backyard Chevy,
Unable to get this gasket, can I use Permatex, Ultra Black, gasket maker after cleaning old one to reuse? Thank you!
@@awongutume i wouldnt because silicone can restrict or even break off and plug up the oil passages
I got the last one in town also but realised it was fel pro, probably ok for this easy to access gasket but I returned it and ordered mahle instead from Amazon
The fel pro is a good gasket.@@ijmcnaught
does the same process apply for 2015 honda accord sport? is it located in the same spot? I'm losing lots of oil from the same area and other issue like losing engine power, car won't start, engine reviving while idling.
Excelente
Gracias amigo🙂👍
Que falla hacia o por k cambiaste el sello de la valvula?
For anyone who is curious, this can be done without removing the wheel. I changed the gasket on my 03 Odyssey with it on ramps. That being said, I don't recommend it, it's a much tighter and all around more difficult job without the wheel off.
Yea definitely better to remove the wheel, it opens up the whole area to work in
I just did that and dropped one of the three bolts, so put a top and bottom one in and reversed off the ramp and got the 3rd bolt and put it on, I kind of regret starting it as some oil leaked in the few seconds I ran it. But all three bolts on with the new seal I'm thinking it's good
@@ijmcnaught yea u should be fine..if it were a paper gasket or something like that it would be an issue
Mechanic is charging me 500$ to do this job…easier to be done myself???
I did the gasket changes but got them from ebay fake ones from china came and is still leaking ima have to buy original solenoid at this point dont wanna risk getting original gasket t
Just to find out i need a whole new solenoid
Well I ended up doing it on Saturn vue 04 the gasket was broken on one side didn't have to disconnect anything did it all connected just didn't let it hang 3bolts came right off changed the oil and everything and no more nasty leak. Next is the valve cover gasket
Excuse me, does anyone know why the D flashes and all the changes when driving it?
So this is what's throwing oil up into my alternator and frying it?
Any chance u live in ga
❤❤❤
Do you think Honda Odyssey exl 2009 have same place ?
yes it does.
Can this leak go down to the exhaust and make it smoke up ???
It is possible, but most likely that would be an oil leak from a different source..possibly oil pan or rear seal
Valve cover gasket is a common leak that drips on the exhaust too.
what is a fair price for this service ?
Would this be the same for an 08 Honda odyssey van?
No, on the 2008s they have it bolted up to the cylinder head
@@backyardchevy328 ok thanks. I do have oil dripping in this area as well. But the oil seems to be all over the place on engine as well 🤔
@@buddhaman50 they do still have the oil pump and the oil filter housing in that same area..and those gaskets can leak causing similar issues
Similar, for 3rd gen it's the oil filter housing gasket, there is a sensor attached. There were changes in the 3rd gen 05 to 07 then 08 to 10. I think most 2nd gen are like this video.
What year was this car? Is the procedure the same for an '09?
Its a 2001..for the 09's i believe they have em on the cylinder head
There is a gasket in the same area oil filter housing. They are prone to leak.
3rd gen Odyssey 05 to 07 VVT assembly is the rear head on the drivers side. 08 to 10 its on the front head passenger side.
I am assuming this applies to 2000-2004 Honda Odyssey vans ?
1999-2004
There is a gasket there on them, but they don't have VVT so there is no solenoid and so on.
Is it possible for the oil leak to cause the alternator to short out?
Actually, I have learned that there are two spool valves, one on the rear head on the driver's side and one on the front passenger's side.
yes we had it short out our alternator @@theheavymetalhippie
That is a different VVT gasket on the upper driver side rear of the engine. Lots of vids on it.
What year is this car you working on ?
Its a 2002 honda odyssey
@@backyardchevy328 would it be the same on an 07?
@@sonofjudy unfortunately no, on the 2007 they have it attached to the cylinder head on the side against the firewall
Would be helpful to add the year of the vehicle to the description.
Will do that..it is a 2001 honda odyssey
Yes, put the year model in the description and the title of the video. I'm wondering if my 2016 Odyssey is the same. Isn't there another valve on top of the motor with a similar gasket? Spool valve. Are there two of these?
Why you call this part vvt. I understand that vvt is for variable valve timing sensor, what has to do with the oil filter housing or why you guys call them vvt ?
Well the vvt sensor is bolted to the oil filter housing, and if u were to buy the unit, it comes up as the vvt solenoid on this vehicle
Is this the 3.5?
Is there a different one?
Can this be done without draining the oil first?
Yea, i didnt drain oil at first, the only thing i did was drain the oil filter before, just cause i knew id be cleaning the inside of the housing..i decided to drain the oil after to just complete the oil change since i had the oil filter off.
@@backyardchevy328 ahhh I want to do this but i have less than 1,000 miles on the oil. Think it can be done without removing the wheel? I usually drive one side onto a high sidewalk (my fake lift lol)
Well im sure it can be done but will it make it more difficult im not sure lol..guess if u try it, u can let me know if u were able to and if it was worth doing it that way lol
@@CRAPO2011 it'll be MUCH easier and WAY less headache if you take the wheel off! I appreciate this video - not many videos I found about this specific part. I accidentally busted a bolt to the vtec solenoid when replacing it, so I have to pull this off in order to extract the bolt. I can tell you from experience, it's REALLY difficult to get to without removing the wheel and splash guard!
@@DwEeBiT22 Iol, was just thinking about this repair is I havent done it yet. Now your putting fear me by telling me you busted one of the bolts. Ive been thinking of ordering the solenoid o rings also since i believe they have to be disconnected anwyay
$$$ job
It's called the oil filter housing gasket. Not oil spool valve gasket.
Yea I was confused when I clicked on this. I literally just did the same thing in mine like 30 minutes ago and in AutoZones system it's called an oil adapter gasket so that took me a minute lol
This is not the spool valve this is the oil filter housing i believe
You are correct flip.
Mine leaking so bad.got oil on my back window
Yea ive encountered a few cars with leaks that bad lol
Mine too. I need help.
