I was receiving the P0341 ECU error code.

Big respect to you, I've just finished the job on my EP3 and I used your guide and the PDF you linked to help me along the way.
Massive thanks for taking the time to film, annotate and upload this video.
Your the man!
It's pretty amazing just how good this video is. thanks for your work guys! good camera work and editing. the overlay of the manual pages was fantastic. Two thumbs up!
Big thanks to you and your dad for uploading this comprehensive video. My chain went earlier this year and I was able to replace it myself with a mates help. I wouldn't have had the nerve to even attempt it without this video! All I will say for any ep3 owners concerned about P0341 you'll know when it's coming as the engine will be sounding like a box of nails for about 3 seconds when starting from cold (severe chain slack). It was frightening the extent to which the chain had stretched (a full two links!). I found the most time consuming step for me was cracking the ultra-stubborn crank pulley bolt. I would always recommend using 3/4 " drive bar and deep impact socket for this job and not the 1/2" suggested, but once again, top video.
One of the best videos that explain exactly what you have to do to replace the timing belt - no skip-ed steps ! BTW, if you don`t have a Honda Tool to lock the crankshaft (can`t find at my local store), you can just put the car in 1st gear, ant that`s it ? I have a manual transmission. Also the torque for that nut is just 49 NM / 36 ft in my Accord - NOT 245 NM - so won`t stress the transmission.
The good ol'e days of the B series timing belt taking 30 minutes are over.... damn....
You ain't kidding lol
What an actual legend. Big props on making that detailed PDF.
This video is beautiful! Thank you!! Just did a head gasket on one and this was so helpful with all the torque specs! Well done sir. Thank you again!
Good. This is how "How to Vids" should be done. very helpful. over use of the sealant though.
Thanks for posting this - it's going to be a big help digging into my 09 Acura TSX - also just got the P0341 ECU code this past weekend (which also disabled the VSA control too). This has inspired me to go the DIY route.
Great video in general, but that was far, FAR too much liquid gasket. You put that amount on and you risk blocking up oilways etc. with the stuff tha gets squeezed out when you refit the cases. Just smear a thin layer on with your finger.
Probably the best/most detailed video of this procedure on youtube.
Damn right. Wayyy too much hondabond. They used half a tube or more on this one job. That tube should last a few weeks lol. Good video none the less but good lord at that gasket maker smh.
@@dgwyn8503 everyone that builds k series engines suggest u use alot of silicone because it is prone to leaking
Disagree. I tried to be conservative the first time and now I'm having to redo it bc I didn't use enough Honda bond. I should have used a bit more bc these k series leak easily at this part. Also if anyone reads this, make sure you let it cure for at least 24 hours before starting the car.
@@dimitriliving I'd respectfully suggest this says more about the people working on these engines than the engines themselves. I replaced the timing chain and guides etc on my EP3 Type R with a fraction of the amount used here and it didn't leak a drop. You need to get the surfaces absolutely clean without putting big scratches in them.
Hondabond is a regular RTV silicone (not anaerobic), so all the crap you squeeze inside the engine will harden and float around in the oil until it hits the pick up screen.
it's nice to see mechanic as pro as you!
That was superb, you guys did a great job with the photos of the information and locations of the parts, and the music was alright! They should make more videos as informative as yours. Thanks fellows , and that is a nice ride.
Awesome video, thanks. Ive done alot of chains and your guide made the job easy... thanks. We are seeing more and more of them as a maintaince items.
+joshua jackson Thanks.
EXCELLENT! This will cover the 2006 Honda CRV also. I am collecting my parts to do this job in a couple weeks. THANK YOU!
Most awesome vid on the internetz.. thank you! will do my chain job when the parts arrive!
I am halfway through the this job at the moment just waiting for a new crank shaft seal to arrive before continuing. Great guide thank you for the time and effort you put in to it. Did you drained the coolant and oil before starting work on it?
Excellent video, thanks for doing this. What kind of bit are you using to remove the Cam Chain Tensioner Arm pivot bolt? I am having trouble loosening mine.
pure sense n great job for instruction. you deserve a praise!!!
Awesome Video, everything is well documented. Watched it like 3x.
hey cheers for the upload was quite the savior through my fn2 chain change .
thanks again
most amazing dyi on the net so far..thanks so much the video great job will help many people like me for sure..again amazing job!!!!!!!!!!
I just finished it, thanks for all the information , Dad.
Where did you find that PDF of the Instruction guide??? I have a 2012 Accord with a very similar setup, but I would love to see the specific guide for my car. Any idea where I could find it?
Your dad is awesome. Nice video.
Very informative video thanks for posting just did the chain and tensioner on a friends k20 powered EG civic. Pulled the engine out as there is even less room in a EG 1.4 engine bay with a K20 fitted LOL.
awesome video... the icing on the cake would've been a start up tho. since most people dont know the timing they dont know if what they are seeing is fact or fiction, so a start up after replinishing the fluids wouldve been epic. anyway 5 stars for the video.
I HAVE A QUESTION ON THE TENSIONER DO YOU HAVE TO USE PRY BAR TO DO EXTRA CLICK OR TWO? OR WILL ADJUST, IT SELF! I HAVE A BAD EXPERIENCE I JUST GOT EVERETHING REPLACED IT AND JUMP TIME AGAIN. PLEASE HELP MY MECHANIC JUST HAND TIDE THE ARMS FROM THE CHAIN. I HAVE TO BUY NEW CHAIN AND TENSIONER.. .
PLEASE HELP!
Thanks for posting the video guys. Was a great help with all the information I needed.++++++++
Do the ignition coils really need to be in the right order? They're all have their own cord, wouldn't a signal on the cord tell them when to fire?
Why can’t every tutorial be like this, now I will know what my mechanic will be doing soon 😂
Great video, gonna be doing rocker cover gasket so very helpful. Cheers
I was amazed to see the amount of difference in stretch in the chain, how many miles on that engine?
The best of them all. Absolutely.
just to add a side note you do not have to put the coils on the same spark plugs. if this was a distributor style ignition then yes but since its coil on plug it doesnt matter.
I really like the end, thanks DAD. wonderful video thank you for posting.
Have you replaced this video with a new version recently?
Thanks a lot for this video, just finishing up my accord with P0341.
I have a ep3 in garage (second car) i read honda claims the chain doesnt have to be replaced but seeing the two chains side beside my jaw drop .. im a welder not a mechanic but with proper research i might be able to handle this thanks to your video thanks
Im a mechanic and i find its a real pain in the a**...makes me feel like dropping the motor and makes me miss having a timing belt lolll
What honda says i dont listen anymore...they try to make money...if u keep running a streched chain what ever you do you will hear it..timing will get off..u will need a new head..
They know this...
Do u have a longer video?? deleted scene exe . Also I was wondering would u ever use after market parts? I wanna buy OEM but there soooo much COIN thanks for reply
Great video! What advice can you offer on removing a stuck chain case? I need to remove the chain case and chain on my way toward replacing the cylinder head on my 2002 CR-V (K24A1). 218K miles so I'll be replacing the chain, guides and tensioner, too, as long as I'm in there. I'm just nervous about damaging the mating surfaces by prying the case away from the engine.
Really wish this can take 20mins to do....
I cannot get the crank pulley bolt off. It's hard enough to get something in place holding the special tool, I then had about 2m of leverage and it felt like I was gonna tear an engine mount off before the nut would crack! Any advice???
I had the same issue as you, but I made sure the leverage was strong enough and I used an axle stand like in the video and with persistence it came off after 2 loud bangs.. Be careful and don't give up
I got Lisle 77080 19 mm Harmonic Balancer Socket for Honda from Amazon. Your best bet.
This looks fairly straight forward, just gotta find someone trust worthy to do this on my type s since I don't have the tools for it. Hopefully I don't gotta give up a nut and a leg to get it done
Dynamic Tuning I've got a type s with some issues, how do yo know you need a new chain if you don't mind me asking?
VERY HELPFUL VIDEO, im planing to do it on my K24 engine, which is close identical, need to replace the chain too, coz i hear mine was rattling since it already has 350,000kms on it, i guess its time to replace it, and by the way does it need to give the auto tensioner an extra click or just release the pin? thanks to you and your dad.
Just make sure its not slack, it will tighten on its own accord too.
Brilliant video 😊
Great video. I need to do this on my RSX Type S. It just clicked 240,000 miles, so I think the chain has stretched.
Great video. What's the replacement service interval for this? 160,000 miles?
Great music and video as well.
Fantastic video, most helpful. Do you think this would be the same for 2008 Honda Accord 2.4L engine?
except you left out on how to reload the chain tensioner lol you made it look easy thanks again
Great job and video. Thank you for helping
Very nice video! Thanks for sharing!
awesome. my honda has 170,000miles. no rattle frequent oil changes, should I do this soon?
Thank you, this is a great help.
Hi mate. Did you have a CEL come on? Or did you just do a timing check? If so what was the code number, I have a CEL with a code of P0341
Thank you for the awesome video!
Very good video
Good work , what service manual repair you use
Did you have to drain the coolant to remove the joint oil cooler or just the oil?
Why would the coils fit in same order...
Rafael Rj I have worked for Honda 10 years. Never heard that either.
Terah Coggin yeah that make no sens, you can switch coils wherever you want. If there a trouble with one of them you gonna have misfiring on any cylinder you put that coil on.
Also to have a bad firing order, you would have to unwrap all the harness and mix up the wires the coils plug into it. But this as nothing to do with the coils. I'm never worked for Honda, and I'm not even a mechanic.
09:43 you rotated the crankshaft sprocket? or what did you do??
As someone asked earlier what is the first techno song or artist on the video ????
dadknowscars I'll be replacing my timing chain tensioner on my 2005 Civic Si Ep3. Does the chain case need to be removed to replace the tensioner? I've got 160 000 miles on engine. I'm doing it as maintenance. Anything else that I'll need or recommend to replace while I'm there? Would appreciate feedback. Thanks
looking at the video you didn't drain the oil. so I can I do this whole job and leave the sump full of oil?
Nice job. is it similar to the 2004 accord 2.4?, my car has a vibration I already replaced both inner joints and one engine mount and checked other 2 they are good, and the still vibrates I wonder if it could be the timing chain on the balance shaft jumped the tooth
Mines just started rattling under load only in higher gears at lower revs.. Think id get away with just replacing the tensioner? Only covered 79k miles, although previous owner liked a heavy foot...
Great video, thank you!
Awesome work!
Hi i know its an old video but what were the symptoms?
I have a ? if you could help me i have the same engine in a honda CR-V Everytime i get all my marks lined up and im at TDC i crank the motor over by hand and they dont seem to line up again what im i doing wrong? How many times do i have to crank the engine to confirm its in time? thanks for any help
The chain links dontline up again only the marks on cam sprockets head and the cranks sprocket
Great video sir!!
Nice video...it made me realize I better pay a professional to do it.
thank you. incredible tutorial :)
@dadknowscars at 11:45 some of the peeled Honda bond felt down in the oil pan, how to take it out?
Thanks!! incledible tutorial!!!!
In this video people show how easy is to do that, but only mechanic knows how to deal with this
Great vid
Excellent video. Thanks
Hey i have a 03 honda accord with a k24 and i do all the steps with the timming chain and i have spark gas air and crank but to compression. Just wondering if u could help or anything.
What size is the tensioner arm screw?
Hey by the way where did you get the carbon fiber intake? Thanks bro" .
great video
thank you this vid was really helpfull
Ur control arm bushing ripped!
My only question is do you have to drain all the oil beforehand?
Yes you do otherwise you will have oil everywhere
I thought his gona start up the engine and prove that its working never mind ....
IV only heard mine rattle pritty loudly once on a cold morning start but the E.M.L is on and it's showing a cam sensor code error of which I'm told it's usually the chain stretch and not tge cam sensor. it's driving badly like all timing is out revs don't feel same
is this video kinda of the same for a 03 honda accord with a 2.4
Great video, does anyone know if its possible to do this on the FN2 type r too using this same method and not having to remove engine? Thx
Nice one thanks for this video
other than that it was a pretty good job well done very helpful
My ep3 has 95000 miles when should I replace the timing chain?
excellent video, Thanks
You are Awesome!
great vid. thanks!!
how many miles has the type r done?
Hi, just had mine changed and there's a squeak, any idea on what it could be? it's only as vtec kicks in, I have just fitted a spoon n1 backbox, could there be vibration from this? thanks for any help
Mikee C describe what the squeak sounds like? Also how much did it come out to???
How did he remove the VTC solenoid so easy I’m trying to take mine out Nd it won’t come off at all
Was the car setting a code, which is why you decided to replace the chain?
+Chris No need to overly tighten it, as it will tighten correctly on it's own.
04 tsx giving p0341
It's a hydraulic tensioner, as soon as there is oil pressure with the engine running it will tension itself to the correct point.
untill a point. on low oil pressure situations (low rpm and cold start) it will use the internall spring of the tensioner. if your tensioner is fucked chain wil slap
If I had this many tools and a garage this would be fun. But I do not... lol. So I would be spending money on extra tools and parts. Then have to find a garage I can spend time in. Looks like I will be taking mine to the shop.
who taught you how to use gasket maker?
+Captain Morgan ha! you sir get a gold star
Nice video! Song names?
