So i replaced my oil pan thinking thats my problem, because it was leaking and all. And wow 3.5 quarts dissapeared in about 1 month.. Ive been crying myself to bed everynight for the past few dayz...
Where the fuk do i start?

 

make sure the oil filter doesent still have the old gasket on it. two gaskets is bad news and happens alot, its not something you'd think about when removing your old oil filter.

 

man sorry to say but thats bad. i had the same problem the first few weeks i bought my car. it was leaking oil, and i thought it was the oil pan. so i took it to honda to get replaced and they replaced it. but as soon as i got home that day it was still leaking. so, i went back to honda and they said 9 times out of 10, the problem is NOT the upper rear main seal. unfortunatly for me it was. so they charged me up the ass to replace the rear main seal, but credited me back for the oil pan.

so, in my thoughts you should get it checked out professionaly.

 

The thing is, there is no oil leaking anywhere. I put some newspaper under my car, and no oil leaked out. Maybe Head gasket? But theres no smoke out of tail pipe.. Im so bummed

 

dude, your fucked


















burnin oil like a mofo !! ( dont drive so hard )

 

im playin mang i love ya first check the valve cover gasket. Then check the head gasket. Then check all the seals . If its not a seal issue, your engine is burning Oil !!!! and then your seriously, not kidding you, fucked

 

thats what happined to me.... i noticed right away huge leak all up and dpwn my street chaged the filter and everything back to normal....

 

my Teg was an eco disaster. Rear main, then some yahoo put the wrong filter on, that poor car... Oh well, definately odd not to see any on the ground... you could have quite a bit of oil in your plastics under the engine... Or, you may be burning it, but you would see that shit.

 

If your car is smoking out of the tailpipe, then your buring oil.

 

 

This is what i get for abusing my motor.. I want my D series back. I used to redline every single gear with no problems..

yEA im so damn confused/scared/sad.. Ill check around a little more..
but no smoke out of the tail.. Nothing

 

long time paaasses...

 

Im at work looking at new motors, f23's h22's and a b20. only reason for a b20 is to have a bulletproof b series. Im stressing out big time. i dont really have $$ for a h22 swap.
I cant even imagine how much $$ it would be to fix this problem. I better learn how to be 'dancer'. i dont get it cause my car runs fine. i rev it out and it pulls well.

 

ask shiney about that one!

 

or a drug dealer

 

dealer+dancer=one rich motha fukka.

 

its called VTEECCCCCCCCC


VTEC uses oil whenever you engage it. Maybe thats where it went

 

Oh yeah, he only snorts phones, not oil. I thought maybe... but, nah.

 

 

Lets assume im burning oil and not leaking... how much $$ are we talking, and how much time do i have before my car go kaboom?

 

i need some wilp and ajt power.. cmon guyz hook me up with the bad news!

Check all of your gaskets first. If it was your head gasket, you'd most likely be leaking coolant to. Check your valve cover gasket. That was where mine was leaking. I couldn't see it cuz it was leaking out of the back.

 

100% correct

 

K so how do i check them?

 

Look for oil leaking out of them and dirtying up your engine. It leaves a black film on your head or block. or both

 

Listen you are really stressing. Remove your valve cover. Look at the color of your oil. If it looks foamy and white looking, realise that you are now screwed. If its dark brown which it will be you are fine. If you had engine damage you would notice it. There would be substancial vibrations, overheating and noise. Chances are you are just burning oil because you drive hard. My H22 eats oil like a mofo. The vtec is a killer. It burns oil so bad I can smell it at times but at least I know there is lubrication right. I'm sure your car is fine.

 

Ur my hero...

btw how the fuk do u take ur valve cover off?

 

I suggest your car is cold when you do this. Remove your spark plug wires. Remove PVC valve i think its called. The whole point is to remove hoses from the head because you will be opening the engine. The top at least. Remove nuts off top. Make sure you do not loose the bushings below. Remove whole top. WALA!
Once removed alalyse the engine. Before closing top look at rubber gasket around valve cover walls and spark plug holes. Make sure you did not crack or break them when you removed the valve cover. If you did break it you can buy yourself a new one at your local acura dealership for less then $20. Good luck. I would have taken pics for you if I have my old F series.

 

Correct, but a DOHC VTEC engine burns up more than a SOHC VTEC motor. The S2000, Integra GS-R, ITR.


Need a compression test, and possibly a leakdown test.

 

That is true but if he does not notice any change in performance then that is highly not the issue.
He also says there is no visible oil leaking on ground.

 

DOHC or SOHC...He still shouldn't be losing 3.5 quarts of oil in a month. I don't think it's the mear V-Tech consuming oil. He's leaking somewhere

 

Yea so i got back from vegas today, and i had my friends follow me down the freeway where i was running my car hard. (for u So Cal people, i took the 110 freeway from pasadena to downtown LA) He sed that when i shifted there was smoke coming out of the tail pipe. whitish blue colored. i think its the head gasget. FUkin A Man. I think its time for a new motor..

 

h22!!! DO ET!

nice so cal reference on the freeways, i feel important when you do stuff like that

 

I feel left out when the soCal freeways are referenced. I'm gonna go get a map!

 

Any h22 CL's in so cal? do they pass smog?

i can get a f23 out of an accord for cheaap.
