Ok well I know its not gonna fix the problem.
So here is the next thing. Last time I got an oil change I told the guy to check to see if there were any leaks. He saw that it was "wet." He said it could be 1 of 3 things. Rear Main Seal, Cam Shaft Seal, or the Front Crank Seal. Anyone have info about these jobs? |
Rear Main Seal is prolly the hardest.....Cam seal involves taking off timing belt and cams....

I have a 2000 Accord Ex, I used the factory pcv valve, and that worked for me, been about 2 months watching and burning oil, made a trip to colorado from florida and added 3 qts total round trip, which is only about 3800 miles, there was never any smoking, I did smell it burn from time to time though. The autoparts pcv is not correct, the factory part made a difference.
Now i will try using the Honda 5-30 recommended oil, maybe it will stop completely. Thought i would share my experience. Ed |
My Accord was having the same issue after 150K miles. I had a shop flush it with those BG products Rush Limbaugh always talks about. I gotta say my Honda hasn't run this great in years. Check it out man, trust me.

Who did the flush? Let me know i might try, i heard that if you do it the quicker flush method, it might cause some troubles too!!! So ive been using Seafoam, just before every change.
