ok i did some troubleshooting...ie pulled the vtec solenoid plug out & no new codes were thrown. So we can safely assume that you were right about the solenoid. I pulled it and gave it some oil and i put it back in still throwing the code. Now last time i had codes i couldnt remember if i could clear the code myself or had to take it to the dealer to clear the code.

So here is my question for you guys. SHould i go down to the dealer and just buy a new solenoid & gasket & just replace it hoping for the code to go away or am i gonna have to let the dealer clear the code.

Or should i just take it down to the dealer and have them look at it before i do anything else? My car is obviously not under warranty anymore adn another problem is the nearest acura dealership is about 80 miles away. There is a honda dealership down the street ya think they would touch it or just send me away?

Any help you guys send my way is greatly appreciated. I have really not been into racing and messing with my car anymore now that ive been flying planes alot but i still need to get to the airport somehow.

Thanks
