Head gasket check

[@brenttitus2134]

This is ridiculous how common this is. How has Honda avoided a class action lawsuit? This is happening to a lot of people out of warranty as well.

[@BCautosolutions]

🤷🏼‍♂️

[@jamram9924]

I often wonder how many of these vehicle owners followed a much stricter protocol to the establish maintenance schedule? Hondas issue affects all gasoline turbocharged engines.

[@robertdiehl9003]

What junk. Brand new looking car which is probably not even paid off.

[@BCautosolutions]

Wouldn’t say brand new but yeah second part is probably accurate lol

[@MacCready_]

The L15t is Honda's worst engine and they have put it in most of their cars. What a major fck up. We can only hope that they learn from this mistake and produce better engines going forward.

[@BCautosolutions]

Agreed

[@OneLeggedStormChaser]

Guessing an Accord

[@BCautosolutions]

Correct

[@jamram9924]

Avoid turbocharged engines, but if you insist or already have one. Make these changes in your maintenance schedule. Please use a high grade synthetic engine oil every 3-4,000 miles, flush out your engine coolant at 35-40,000 miles. These turbocharged engines require a stricter maintenance protocol than normally aspirated engines, no matter what your dealership or owners manual tells you. You control the tempo of how your car is maintained. Take responsibility, take charge

💯

If I’m not mistaken that’s a 1.5 turbo earth dreams, and they did not have good runs in the beginning unfortunately but all the manufacturers have problems out of these tiny turbo engines man it’s sad we need to go back to the d16 b18 days

[@BCautosolutions]

Yes it’s an earth dreams 1.5t

[@aaronbryan5095]

We don't need to go all the way back to the D series lol, K20 & K24 is already long lasting as hell. Somehow Toyota and Mazda has 2.5 L NA engines that can meet emissions regulations, yet Honda isn't doing that with their K24.

[@sn4rl277]

@@aaronbryan5095 I bought a 10th Gen Accord with the K20C because of all the L15's in the Accords, Civics' and CRV's seeing blown head gaskets.

[@MacCready_]

Buy the cars with the K series.

[@mikejones762]

1.5 is junk

[@BCautosolutions]

👀

[@jamram9924]

But that issue can be mitigated by increased maintenance intervals. If you’re one of those “happy go lucky” vehicle owners, avoid all gasoline turbocharged engines regardless of brand. Stick to a normally aspirated engine.

[@orangefirepearlfb6]

I'm a huge fan of your work. U answered questions for me on I.G . What caused a blown gasket LOW COOLANT or mileage/not maintenance

[@BCautosolutions]

Thank you. There’s a combination of thins going on. I have a full video on the Honda 1.5t head gasket topic.

Lol keyboard warriors would of been all over that, if you didn't specify. 😂😂😂

[@BCautosolutions]

They have mentioned it numerous times in other videos how it’s the washer tank because the big blue cap is right next to it. 😅

[@oenation1506]

I’m more interested in the tool than anything else

[@BCautosolutions]

I’ve shared it a few times already ✅

[@Raylude5]

You've seen any issues with CRVs with warning lights coming on usually when first starting and putting in gear. Usually sets code P0341 in temporary. It also had a p0172 at one time. Its also the second CRV in a couple weeks thats had P0172

Are we talking 17-22 crv?

Engine is off and coolant cannot be to the top of the radiator.

​@@BCautosolutions wow, that's crazy! I'm surprised they didn't do a recall on that. Anyone used 91+ octane and still got that issue by any chance? I noticed the Earth Dreams badge so guessing 18-20.

[@BCautosolutions]

@@mark1nyc the 91+ octane does reduce the chances although there is still a design flaw that cannot be ignored
