Timing Belt Change - Parts? 2012 SH-AWD
Hey guys,
I am going to be looking into changing my timing belt in the near future. Wanted your advice on parts. Keep in mind I am in Canada and prices are outrageous to go through the dealer for OEM parts.
From what I've gathered, this would be a decent kit to go with (Aisin TKH002) ?
(220CAD + shipping) More Information for AISIN TKH002
Anything else I should be buying and doing while everything is apart? Plugs I am assuming?
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

I'll be due for my timing belt soon and I'm probably going to use the Aisin kit from Rockauto.
The thermostat is a PITA (surrounded by other parts) but I probably use Honda part for that.
Drive belt (it has to be removed anyway)

Oh and I forgot ...
I replace the front main seal.
It's about $10
Need a sela driver or a piece of 2" pipe (Sch 40 is ok, Sch 80 preferred) to drive seal in even and flush.

The dealership goes with 4 major components for a T-Belt job...
1) Timing Belt (14400-RCA-A01)
2) TIming Belt Tensioner (14520-RCA-A01)
3) Water Pump (19200-RDV-J01)
4) Drive Belt (569925-RV0-A05)
Obviously, if you change the water pump - coolant (OL999-9011) must be added. Anything else that the customer wants or prefers to be changed is completely up to them. This has been the way we've done it for the past 11 years here in Northern VA. (Pohanka Acura / Honda Of Chantilly)
I get calls from independent repair shops about timing belt "kits", but Honda/Acura sells almost everything individually so a "kit" doesn't really exist. Often times, we will quote out the 4 parts above, plus coolant...and often times, the shop will ask for the cam seals as well. I believe many shops are just accustomed to replacing those during a T-Belt job, however we don't include them in our quotes unless the customer wants them. This is standard parts and labor procedure direct from American Honda. Again, other than the 4 parts listed, anything else is up to you. Thanks,

Dont forget coolant! A light coat of “hondabond” to seal the water pump is what i usually do. You may as well pick up front and rear valve cover gaskets if they are leaking.... also spark plugs

I was told the gaskets for the power steering should also be replaced as one of the hoses will be disconnected during the timing belt procedure anyhow. Am told noise when moving the steering wheel is due to gasket failing and air getting into the line.

Yeah, I’d take anything that person says with a grain of salt from now on.

I just did this job last month.
You will absolutely need a crank pully removal tool, no question about it. That fukin bolt is on there at 180ft/lbs. Soak that bolt with some liquid wrench or whatever else for about a week prior to doing the job. The bolt will still be a PITA to remove. I had a long extension resting on a jack stand while I literally stood on a 3ft breaker bar. The crank bolt is probably 40% of the job.

The "blip" method works pretty well by using a breaker bar (or even ordinary good quality ratchet) attached to the crank pulley bolt then starting the engine. The starter failed to crank the first 8 times before it came off. Essentially the same as trying to start a seized engine. Attempt 9 worked though Don't know if I did any damage to the starter......
