Is it possible to find a NEW Idle Air Control Valve and also NEW Intake Air Bypass Control Thermal Valve for 2005 Accord i4 in the market?

I’ve been tackling my engine’s rough idling problems and vacuum leak and I need new parts as all the tokumbo ones I’ve tested never worked well.

Please my 1998 CRV have a problem of not starting sometimes and starts very well at other times. These days, it starts and runs well during the day and fails to start in the night and starts in the morning. I have observed this behaviour for 3days now. What could be the problem pls?

Lol. I no guru anything bro.

Your vibration is likely due to warped brake discs (aka rotors).
Action: Replace your brake discs and brake pads. Vibration should disappear.

My 06 accord v6 has oil in radiator, my car has never overheated, I only had to change the leaking radiator many months back. My mechanic doesn't know if its oil from my engine or oil from my transmission that enters my radiator.

I bought a used radiator and I always do routine check in the morning only to notice some days ago that oil was in my radiator

Start by returning your previous radiator or if you have the equipment run a vacuum test on the oil cooler section of the radiator you bought. Also inspect transmission oil and engine oil for contamination

i don't think there is anyone who can run a vacuum test in Benin. Secondly I have been inspecting my engine and transmission oil, no sign of contamination yet.

Leaks like that are sneaky bast.ards , especially slow small leaks. It is possible there is nothing wrong with your car sef .

It is possible you bought a contaminated radiator. One that was previously used in a car with a bad head gasket that had oil in it. So many variables.

that's why my mechanic wants me to continue inspecting every morning to see any abrupt changes in my engine and transmission oil

My engine oil has hit the 15% limit. The warning light came up.

What type and quantity of engine oil should used?

Honda accord 2006

Thanks Gazzuzz, we're on it, having a look. It's a difficult job getting to the part location in the vehicle

Update: So Boss, we loosed the crank casing of my engine and couldn't find the CSF(CKF) sensor. Guess previous owners have done some manueveur. I got the car manual and found that it should be there.
According to the manual, Crank fluctuation sensor(CSF/CKF) is different from crank position sensor (this one is in the distributor). I'm wondering why the Ckf is missing from position.
#oldcar. Will really love to clear the code,maybe it will solve this non-starting problem I experience sometimes.

Not really Boss. From search, there are two types of engine for the car- Japanese domestic market and US domestic market. my engine is the Japanese market(JDM) which doesn't come with a CKF, while my ECU is OBD2 therefore looking for the signal. There's a bypass procedure to this- connecting the CKF wire to CKP wire. I will be needing help to do this. The process is online. The other option of reconstructing it with US market parts is costlier.
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by ugreat(m): 8:46am On Jul 27, 2020
Please where can I purchase this scotch wire connectors? Thanks in anticipation

Update: We update for people who may have similar challenge and want to search for these same issues

So the CRV P1337 code has been cleared after following some steps found online. My engine JDM B20B do not come with CKF sensor so I had to bypass(connect) the cable at the ecu with the CKP wires and the code was cleared. Thanks guys!!

take the vehicle to a qualified technician for physical inspection and possible diagnosis

My car key remote stopped responding all of a sudden. I had to open the door by inserting the key.

I'm curious because it worked perfectly the last time.

What could be wrong?

the battery inside is probably dead. Unscrew the back and change battery
