2003 Honda Element Engine Variable Timing Solenoid
Anyone ever run into this problem.... Since day one of owning this Element Every time i change the oil usually within two days the Engine Variable Timing Solenoid fails and have to get a new one.... This time it lasted 3 weeks before failing, then after putting a new one in it will last till next oil change then like clock work go out within two days usually.
This is the type of oil i use for it Castrol GTX High Mileage 5W-20 Synthetic Blend Motor Oil
I know the grade of oil is correct , i would think that brand of oil also would do fine in the car..
This part is not cheap at all.. Each summer or winter I am having to replace it after Oil change never fails to have to change it.... And i check that little screen on the front side behind he power steering pump and its always clean
Anyone have an ideal of why this happens?
Thanks

Mobile I guess i can try that to see. Everytime i take the one that is on it off the screen is clear, and the little screen behind the power steering pump is clean... I also noticed when using my scanner to be sure that was the problem once again, it picked up another code that has me worried a P0 600 number, so first going to fix the regular problem then see if that code comes back up the po 600 code once i clear the ECU of trouble codes. I do wish i could figure out why this happens so much, surely every one i purchase is suppose to last longer then it does on this element. I don't get the aftermarket either the ones i purchase cost around 104.00... sure a headache...
