Hello, I have discovered that I need to replace my timing chain in my 2013 CT EX (111k miles). Mechanic says this is a known issue especially if you let the oil go past 6k miles (I did not, but here I am...) What exact Honda parts to I need to order for my mechanic to replace the timing chain? He said I needed to order Honda parts no after market. Also said this was a 12 hour job... :-(
Answers to possible Qs: I have already changed the oil and have always used the recommended oil 0w 20 and new oil filter before 6K. I then replaced the camshaft position sensor (diag.code P0341) and a few miles in the code came back up. I did more research and noticed my gas mileage was getting worse and when I run the AC the car is a bit sluggish. No weird noises coming from engine and I just had the engine wire harness replaced in April because the rodent family living in my valve cover made a huge mess and that was when the codes came up... after the new ewh was installed I drove 134 miles and the check engine light came on along with the FCW / LDW lights and fail message, same as before the new harness.
Thank you for any assistance and I am so glad I found this forum!
