leaking oil filter adapter repair V6 Honda

[@Letsgobrandon827]

I like that you showed the part of you having the wrong gasket. This video has integrity to the reality of the process. Thank you.

[@saltwaterscratcher]

Just did mine . After watching your video it took me 15 mins to replace the gasket and turn the van back on. Thank you for making it clear and simple.

Do we need to drain engine oil ?

@@genekorin3390 no

[@saltwaterscratcher]

@@genekorin3390 well I did not drain the oil. A lot did come out. So I would if I were to do it again

@@Blazeeeee7 I did not drain the coolant . I did drain the oil though before I pulled it off to replace the gaskets

[@saltwaterscratcher]

[@brandonmacdonald7802]

Honda quoted me $2500 to do a full oil pump replacement but after some diagnostics and watching this video, I have discovered it's just the oil filter adapter gasket. A $16 part and 1hr of labour. Thank you!

[@YeaItsJr_Talks]

Yeah I don’t trust shiet from the dealers

[@samadabdul1242]

for anyone watching, when you take a new gaskets out of a package, they are bent out of shape. Leave the metal and the new gasket attached out in the sun for 10-20 minutes and it'll fix into place automatically. This saves so much hassle. I've seen people just install them as is and it leaks again because of the gasket not sitting in place properly.

[@michaelwright1602]

That is one thing I really appreciate about these Honda designs, they make them so that these individual parts are repairable with a simple O-ring and or gasket set. Take their power steering pumps, very expensive, and I am sure the dealerships love selling new ones. The kicker is, just about anyone with some basic hand tools can rebuild one for around $30 or $40, depending on the Honda dealer you purchase the O-rings, seal and bearing from.

[@TheProtagonist_777]

It's a shame they do not sell some of the gaskets, VCM gaskets for instance. You have to buy aftermarket gaskets.

[@ReeseAssad]

Lmfao the kicker with the power steering pumps on the v6 hondas is that they are a pain in the ass to install especially the high pressure line that routes to the rack directly, and if u got a leak on the return line even a more pain the ass problem, and i dont think basic hand tools will suffice for a power steering pump job lol espeically if you need to remove the motor mount to replace ps belt thats connected to the crank pulley

[@michaelwright1602]

@@ReeseAssad Understand, I own the tools. And I was simply speaking about the pump itself. Not the entire steering systemm.

Thanks to you I found the source of my oil leak, got the right part, and changed it this afternoon in about an hour start to finish.

[@hypefxx9011]

Had this annoying problem for the last 4 years. Just never pinpointed to this. I did the valve cover gasket earlier last year. 2006 ridgeline with 220000 miles. Thanks for the video

This is the very best video on this issue that I've seen so far! Keep up the good work.

[@travispalm6917]

Thank u for the great video. I knocked my repair and oil leak out in an hour with your instructions. $14 gasket at oreillys

[@pl747]

I just done a massive oil leak there on my grand daughters Pilot. I was sure surprised when Oreilly's had that gasket in stock. The old gasket had broke in one spot letting pressurized oil come right out above the oil filter.

[@MrSamPhoenix]

It’s common on these for the VTEC solenoid (i.e. pressure switch/spool valve) on the V6 to leak. Thank heavens it’s mostly an easy fix. But I wouldn’t replace the main gasket without the mesh filter.

[@SecurityZone1]

I just replaced the same gasket on a 2006 Pontiac G6...after u replace it it wont leak anymore...nice job with the diagnostic 👍

[@thouser1553]

Man ...that was a good job! I'm convinced that my timing solenoid up top isn't leaking, nor the valve covers. I can't trust anyone to clean up around the seams like you did before reinstallation.

[@teds4983]

Having a oil leak on my 01 accord v6, going to start with this. Very nice video

[@crisacevedo5819]

Was this your issue bro ?

[@teds4063]

​​@@crisacevedo5819it helped like 80% but I still have a small leak. It was a real easy fix and cheap. I would recommend it, there is a lot of rubber gaskets. But now it's a small enough leak I don't worry about it now.

[@T_McTag]

Thank you for showing where the other two smaller gaskets go... other videos only show the major one.

[@radickd2]

Great video! Thanks! One minor point, I wouldn't recommend spraying cleaner into the open housing. You're better to spray the rag and then wipe it. You could contaminate the oil by doing it the way you did.

[@migueljuarez6217]

Man, watching your vide made me get the work on my Ridgeline very fast and easy, thank you for sharing! Regards from Monterrey, Mexico!

[@jaywinters2483]

great video! thanks for not ruining it with music

[@Mr_BUSINESS_24_7]

GUNK "Engine Brite" or Simple Green are really good cleaners for the outside of the engine block to grt all the old oil grime off. Sprsy them on liberally, let them sit for 10 to 15 minutes to emulsify. Then blast the solvents off with a high pressure gargen hose or power washer.

[@KevinB-m1x]

[@Anhemnorthcarolina]

Changed all 3 of the gaskets you did and it still leaks. I remembered the crank shield was dry when I did the spool valve body. Where else can the leaks come from? It's apparently still leaking around the same area (passenger side lower side)

[@Mr_BUSINESS_24_7]

Coming from the oil pump O-ring. You need to reseal the actual oil pump.

[@nedoscarsandfishingvideos5500]

Good video going to do mine tomorrow good idea to drain oil first

[@bryonslavin721]

Fantastic troubleshooting thank you for this video.

[@coderexe30]

Getting the dang solenoid connector unplugged on my Honda V6 is near impossible. There must be more room in this Odyssey than there is on the Accord. Been struggling for almost an hour.

[@nldas3]

I am having the same issue. My leak is coming from the top solenoid. We're u able to disconnect it? I tried unscrewing the solenoid but one of the 10mm screws is impossible to unscrew ( I stripped it slightly because I used an open wrench). So don't try to unscrew it.

[@r.louirat604]

My subframe on my 2005 Acura TL looks just like this and the leaks smell like burnt oil. I’m gonna do this right now and see what I come up with

[@michaelwright1602]

If you own an older Honda J series, I would do this gasket swap prior to it failing. I think I will put this on my list, do it at my next oil change. 114,000 miles on the 2013 Pilot.

[@Roboticdoughbull3k]

Have you never ever heard brother, if it ain't broke you don't go fixing it? That seal could go 500k b4 leaking, you cannot predict the life of each individual seal.

[@ryanlopez4371]

I’m assuming this is my randomly leaking suspect!Same side leaking from my 2011 Acura Mdx…small oil spills randomly leaking from passenger side right about that black boot

[@hypertrophy07]

Great job, very informative!

[@robertskipper8848]

Did you remove any siding pieces? Did you have to take the tire off of the side?

[@javier-m75]

cool video thank you for the info. i had no need disconnect the filter arm i just took out the screws and replaced the gasket. no big deal just have something for the oil drip and break cleaner to clean up the area.

[@nicktumi]

I had no idea this was a thing until today. My mechanic charged me $260 to fix this. Now I know.

[@DevoutJourney]

Is there a way to remove just the male piece for the oil filter adapter? My new oil pan doesn’t have one and I can’t get the part anytime soon so I want to take it off the old one

[@justinyelverton]

What part would cause a leak down the back side of the motor that drips onto the exhaust? 08 odyssey, j35. Valve cover gaskets have both been gone, and the solenoid on the backside isn’t leaking, but I can’t see anything else.

[@Sbaileyrph]

Excellent video. Thank you.

[@jcblur311]

My 2009 Honda Pilot 3.5 oil filter housing doesn't have a pressure switch or VTech solenoid attached to it, but the o-ring kit I got for it has gaskets for each. Any ideas?

[@jimnespor1818]

Parts Shooter, once again, great video. I'll be darn, mine is leaking after putting in all 3 gaskets. How long should I let it run to see where it leaks from? And you briefly mentioned, that the switch thing can leak also?? Has anyone mentioned that to you? Thank you!

[@partsshooter]

You may have a leak elsewhere, cracked housing or human error during install🤔. Things happen! Try rechecking your work or clean the area and check for leaks

[@jimnespor1818]

Thanks!

[@jimnespor1818]

Parts shooter, once again, your video saved me! Besides this gasket, my oil pressure switch was leaking. (If you go to 7:00 in your video, you see the the black boot over the switch). Wanted to share that in case somebody else checked out your video!

[@Mwm-x3n]

OMG . This is it!! Is this it?? Probably... Im back here cuz of the sludge all over. This pic looks just like mine did. Now clean but never diagnosed by shop. What broke though? Over the course of a month with two incidents something broke was caught up in belt the flew out from under. That part still looked in tact but soaked in oil. The noise was horrible I thought the wheels or front end were going to fall off. B4 event no sludge, after event sludge! The damn mechanic didnt believe me & never provided ANY feedback during all their supposed work... Also my front end 6 mos later is way sloppier & nosier. Gee there goes those bushings!!!!!! As if i did have enough front end work to be done. signed, female-on-a-mission. Oh, any feedback appreciated.😊

Should have resealed the rest of the oil pump assembly, very common leak on the J-series.

[@partsshooter]

So you're saying the 1hr job in doing the filter housing, should've have been a 9-hour maintenance prevention by doing the oil pump while I was in there? By that logic, I should've pulled the transmission and did the rear main seal also if I'm doing a axle seal... is this correct, please explain your logic here

[@Mr_BUSINESS_24_7]

Keep in mind if resealing rhe oil housing DOESN'T take care of the leak, then yoi need to reseal the oil pump. There os an O-ring between oil pump and rhe engine block that likes to leak put the top and run down the outside of the oil pump onto the oil filter housing.

Could a bad gasket cause white smoke to come out? I’m getting white smoke coming out from the right side. Not sure if this is the cause but I did notice that side of the car is dirty from oil.

[@partsshooter]

Extremely bad valve cover leak or power steering hose leak will cause long standing smoke under the hood. Because of the location, typically you won't see smoking because it's away from the exhaust

[@Justbeingfrankx]

@@partsshooter ahh makes sense. I changed out my power steering hose about a year ago and I’m now noticing the smoke. That might be the problem then.

My 2005 keeps setting off the check engine light and the vsa then the van will go into protection mode. what would cause the oil pressure to drop ounce the motor warms up.?

[@partsshooter]

@juliescurlock4350 oil pressure can drop due to low oil level, weak oil pump, incorrect oil viscosity, excessive main bearing clearance, and failed oil pressure sensor.
