the first time it threw that CEL, i took it to my friends mechanic , he said these words exactly:
"your vtec is messed up, u might need to redo your cams, or do a rebuild." i stared at him for a few seconds with my mouth wide open and then said."m taking it to a honda guy, i think u just made that shit up." he got mad and i left...

What happend to me is I pretty much starved my entire engine for oil.....I recently have pulled my F23 apart and found that all of my main bearings, along with my thrust bearings are blown out. I never did spin a bearing, so if there is no damage to my crank, I may rebuild the motor with new bearing sets and drop it into an Accord...but CHECK THAT SHIT OUT IMMEDIATELY BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. On the other hand, it may be that one of your VTEC components has failed, and your oil flow is fine, (which from what Acura told me VERY RARELY HAPPENS).....Either way, check that shit out immediately!!
Look on the bright side...if your motor is fucked....TIME FOR AN H22 SWAP!!! Let me know if you need one. I shopped everywhere and finally found a H22 and the P13 ECU for $1,590.00 SHIPPED!!! The rest will be labor, and gaskets, seals, belts, and any goodies you decide to put on, etc.
Sorry for the ramblings, but I have been EXACTLY where you are just a couple of months ago.Good luck!!

no i havent checked the oil pan, i'd hate to do this but i;m gonna have to go to honda to have em check it out. damn i hate those bastards 89.99 to check it out and 95% of the time it doesnt have shit to do with what they say. i bet you they will tell me its because of my intake.

Same problem - only when engine has been warmed up though
My engine refuses to go beyond 4000 rpm as well, but only when the engine has been warmed up, like driving for about 20 minutes or more. Before that, the VTEC works as expected and I can feel it at 4K rpm.
Oil level is ok, restrictions due to the oil pan would not be dependent on whether the engine is warm or not, oil pump should be able to pump warm oil more easily so I cannot blame it...

So much good info can be found if one searches
BUT: Does the light with the oil can and a drip mean "low oil"? It's blinking.
I couldn't find that when I searched "oil* light" so thanks.
