Thank you for all the replies! I am definitely still experiencing some oil loss based on regular checks. Unfortunately I don’t have access to a compression test tool. If I do decide to take it somewhere to have this addressed or looked at I am armed with more knowledge now though, so thanks again for pointing me in the right direction everyone!
Removed the PCV valve and there was indeed some oil residue on the threads as well as both sides of the valve. Cleaned with water per honda dealers suggestion and a bit of brake clean. I also cleaned around the cam plug to see if any oil pools around that area again. Fingers crossed this was a quick and easy fix!
Sorry, I guess I posted this in the wrong section. I was trying to post in the “what are you working on” section and now I don’t know how to move or delete this lol
Thanks for the reply, the car has a lot of miles on it; just over 220k. I do plan on keeping it as long as possible though. I do my best to change the oil every 4-5 thousand miles and have been running high mileage synthetic blend for about the last 80,000 miles.
All the same if there are any problems I do my best to fix them so long as they’re not cost prohibitive. That’s why these two seemingly easy and cheap fixes jumped out at me.
I’m cleaning the engine bay really well today to see if I can pinpoint any leaks, and cleaning the pcv valve per my local dealers suggestion over just getting a new one.
