Hey guys,
I've been browsing this forum and I recently started driving my dad's old car, a V6 2003 Auto sedan
The check engine light and maintenance light are on, no big deal (or so i thought).
The codes i am getting are:
P0456 and P0442
Not sure what to do? These codes have been coming on for the past year or two, I clear them, they come back. I thought it was the gas cap but I'm not too sure now (but I haven't replaced the gas cap .. yet)
Is there a part I can easily replace to fix this? I'm ordered a bunch of stuff of rockauto tonight ... I've heard a lot of people talking about an 'evap canister valve'?
Also, is there a company that supplies honda with parts? I know with jeep buying ACDELCO parts was the same thing as buying direct from the dealership. Is there a generic name for OEM Honda stuff or is it strictly from the dealership?
I am also ordering the following to do some maintenance:
Driver door lock actuator
NGK sparkplugs
Fram air filter
Seafoam
WIX oil filter
Tranny fluid (to do a drain + refill)
Can you guys think of anything else I may be overlooking (200,000 km service)?
We have owned this car since new, and driving my jeep to/from school was getting way too expensive (crap MPG) so I'll be driving this as a daily -- Just wanted to make sure all the maintenance was up to date before I started racking up the miles farther
Sorry about all the questions, hondas are serious business-- well, a lot more serious than a jeep
