Genuine Honda 17130-RCA-A02 PCV Valve Assembly

I had trouble with oil leakage and excessive oil consumption in my 2007 Honda Pilot EX-L with four-wheel drive. Oil was leaking from the perimeter of the front valve cover gasket and seeping from the rear main seal. The leak was so severe that oil got into the alternator and fried it.After some research, I discovered that a clogged PCV valve could cause these symptoms. I purchased this replacement and, upon removing the old PCV valve, I found it was badly burnt and didn’t rattle at all.Installation of the new PCV valve was simple and straightforward. Since replacing it, I haven’t had any leaks! I did notice a bit of smoke coming from the front O2 sensor, but that was just oil residue burning off the exhaust manifold. It worried me at first, but everything turned out fine.I highly recommend this product—great value for the money.

Needed a new PVC valve due to oil seeping from valve cover gasket and burning off on exhaust manifold. That stopped right after I replaced the one on my engine. I had read that OEM was the only way to go and that they tend to work better and longer than after market manufacturers products.

Being a Honda OEM part this fit perfectly. It took me less than 5 minutes to replace the PCV. The price was pretty good as well.

Fit perfectly, easy install.

This part works as expected and is a MUST DO maintenance item! It is very easy to install if you turn your own wrench. 5-stars.

Installing this on the 3.5L V6 went from what was supposed to be a 15 minute job to several hours. This OEM piece for great! The old one, though, was a disaster as many others have stated, please be careful once removing the old gunked up to one. It will break on you easily.I spent hours getting all the pieces out with a automotive pick. Anyway, successfully installed on my 2011 Pilot and resolved my oil burning issue. If you don't change this out, you can eventually over pressure your head gasket or VVT gasket on your VTEC solenoid which will cause a bad oil leak on these.

This OEM part at a great price, was a perfect fit. After 140k miles mine was clogged and needed a change. My job took 10 minutes, but Caution removing the old one, twist it before prying out, some people report breaking the old one off while trying to remove it. FYI, Use a 7/16 tap to remove the shank, if you break it off. Put a drop of clean oil on the rubber o-ring before installing the new one, and make sure it seats properly.

This part is OEM, and it came in original packaging. After installation I noticed improved performance at idle. Before the engine would be sluggish before it would idle more stable. I recommend replacing every two years. It's an inexpensive part and can cause so many performance issues when it starts to fail.
