No it isn't. There have been several engine failures attributed to the older banjo bolts. Why would Honda change the design and even go to the trouble to recall the older design in some markets if it was BS?

ekim952522000, you need to look at the engine serial number, not the VIN. Somewhere around engine #1025386 Honda started using the updated bolts.

But don't worry if you don't have them. Updating the bolts is not a difficult job, just slightly time consuming. Parts should cost you less than $60 easy.

If I were you, I would do the update. It's for your own peace of mind. It's easily worth the time/money, especially if you drive aggressively or plan to boost your car in the future.

 

Rafi, I was gonna link to the HTG page for the bolts but it seems to be down. Are you guys at FC05?

 

No.. . we have never had a problem due to the bolts. waste of money

 

Just because Ganley hasn't doesn't mean NOBODY has. What prompted the recall?
