Have an Issue I am having problems putting my finger on the cause of it. I am getting 8 different engine codes
p0300, p0302, p0303, p0304, p0305, p0306, p1399
Also Seem to have a oil leak in VTEC range coming from what appears to be a solenoid at the front right end of the motor says siemens EE01 388320 on it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am currently running Bosch Iridium Fusion Plugs and Synthetic Mobil One for Oil

Realized I was going to have to pull them anyway. But wondering why i am burning oil and leaking oil out of said solenoid it seems like just started today. Where is the vtec solenoid located.
I figure the plugs are the cause of the misfire.

well after reviewing the photos, the part your pointing at is the EGR valve. Part number 18011-PGE-A00 from Acura. My local dealer sells it for $99.71.
also from the pictures, there seems to be a whole lot of oil in that area. Is that all from the valve? There isnt supposed to be all that oil around there, like on that breather tube and coolant lines there.

According to the CEL codes, you have:
P0300 Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
P0302 Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
P0303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
P0304 Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
P0305 Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected
P0306 Cylinder 6 Misfire Detected
P1399 is also a misfire code
I dont know if the EGR valve is related but if oil is coming from there, then I would replace the gasket under the EGR valve since there were no codes thrown for the EGR valve specifically. Also pull the plugs out and replace it with NGK iridiums. A lot of people use the cheaper Iridium IX versus the Lazer Iridium but the lazer iridiums are OE.
you can just tell the dealer you need the gasket under the EGR valve and they should know. Or I can look up the part number for you

i have about a 1/4 of a quart of motor oil sitting in the intake manifold. 3 front plugs are blackened with burnt oil. have not taken the time to pull the rears but havea feeling they are the same

that oil sitting in the wells on the intake mani are kinda normal, it happens if you dont have a catch can. I had a few pools of oil when i took off the silver plate and my engine runs great.
just see if a buddy or something can take you to the parts store and get you the plugs you need. then you need to get to the acura dealer and pick up that gasket. i wouldnt drive around with good plugs and that bad oil leak, sounds like the oil could be going into the cylinders.
or are you just gonna give up on the motor all together and get a new one without trying to fix this one?

debating mdx 3.5L in place of it will obviously loose 20hp but gain about 15lbs of torque can get one for 500 before shipping
found a 3.2l j32A2 for 800 before shipping guaranteed less than 85000 miles on it.

found someone on that said i could use the j35a3 and a4 and only j32a2 just remove the intake plenum spacer as far as i know. may have to end up with a FIC installed on it. about the same mileage

It seems really unlikely that your engine is toast. I can't see anything that could possibly do this much damage. As far as the oil everywhere you should check your breather tubs and whatnot, it seems more or less that they are leaking oil everywhere.
Is there any smoke coming out of your exhaust? If its blue, yeah its oil. If its white then coolant.
As far as the misfire goes you may just have 1 bad coil pack, this is exactly what happened to another member on here named StonedCL, It would cause all of your cylinders to misfire.
Worst case scenario your headgasket is blown, With an auto cl with a rev limiter and no extensive modifications I haven't read about anyones rings going bad or valves floating. Good luck and check all those things out before looking at engines, it may be a smaller problem then you think. Have you done all the maintanance on your car regarding timing?

i just bought the car so the maintenance since i have bought it has been done top notch. But its burning and blowing out 2 to 3 quarts of oil. Plugs are soaked so i have blow by somewhere. I either have a blown valve seals or a blown ring because it had a spark knock before hand. My maintenance normally gets done ahead of time anyway. ITS BLOWING OIL OUT OF THE EGR well normal cause of EGR Blow By is Blown RINGS. I have 90 dollars worth of toasted plugs also. K&N drop in air filter with more 5w 20 Synthetic Mobil One in it then in the motor due to blow by.
Whats bad is there is not enough 600 miles on the plugs and oil change. Whats left of the oil that is.

still dont get how this could have happened. I dont think an engine just randomly blows its valve seals or seal rings especially since you keep good maintainance on it. do you know why this happened? did you try to fix it yet by replacing the EGR valve or gasket and get the new plugs?
