Nice,thx for sharing. Fellow 08 rdx owner. 154k bought few mo ago. Just had the valves lashed exhaust was 3 to 4 thousands tight glad I did it. Having a gas smell in my oil so looking into the injectors. I noticed a black plastic orifice kinda lvl with valve cover ledge by that big round thing below pcv tube where it comes out valve cover, is there something I'm missing there???

Do you have Hondata with a custom tune? Since your able to activate the BOV while in park/neutral?

Does anyone know the top speed for the 2012 4cyl turbo rdx? I just got one, but the tires are sketch. Thank you for the vids. I need to do the following to 2012 rdx fwd 4cyl turbo. For preventative maintenance and maybe peace of mind. There are no service record for this car. (Cheap car deal or possible lemon.) Car runs great I think. Plenty of pep. Lots of pep actually. Very fast little grocery getter that you can park anywhere without worrying about body damage. Transmission oil (filter?) Alignment Spark plugs (?) Coil packs (?) Air filter Injector clean (seafoam, Lucas, other pour in tank brands)

we installed this BOV on my brothers 08 and it just flutters, it won’t open at all and we have no idea why. only thing turbosmart says on their guide is about low idling and stalling but his car does nothing bad like that it just won’t go PSSSSHHHH or open at all, i’ve tried the adjustment twisting and everything and it just won’t open, any idea what could be causing this?

@billykomengthao 3 ай бұрын

I went with the gfb it's cost more but work great had it for 4 years now still working and the adjustment work to how loud u want it but I notice the gas cap comes on so I just close the adjustment but u can still hear it even without it's open

my 2012 RDX is white like yours! I drove a bit too hard and now i'm hearing a bad sound when they turbo starts spooling up... like a fan blade rubbing against something while it's spinning. I'm trying to figure out what's happening and i came across your video. the neighborhood you drove through looks like maryland, where i live! thanks for sharing the video and once i figure out my turbo problem i must just have to install a blowoff valve! cheers

You turn the adjuster pass the softest setting until it comes off, and you will see a spring, you put the shim either under the spring or over the spring, then you put the adjuster back on.
