Hey! I have been having some problems with my Honda Element 2004 and have gotten no where so far. Here's the deal:

Three months ago I was driving up to the mountains and my cars acceleration gave out. It did not die or stop working, just stopped accelerating. The acceleration all most immediately kicks back in creating the car to jump. The check engine light came on and I took it to a auto shop to run the codes. I was told that my oil was dirty and that I needed an oil change. I changed it and everything was fine. A month passed and it happen again. The check engine light came on and This time it threw a code for an oil pressure switch. I researched and was told that I should just have the VTEC valve replaced. I had it replaced and it was fine again. About another month almost passed and it happened again. It threw up the oil pressure switch code . Then went away. Then happened again and now its saying the code P2626 Rocker Arm actuator. I have no idea was to do. Every one keeps telling me to keep replacing the VTEC Valve over and over again. Sometimes it happens multiple times in a couple minutes, sometimes it happens once and then doesn't happen for a while. I need help. I have tried everything I have been suggested so far ( VTEC Valve, oil pressure switch, oil change, fuel injector cleaned, water remover in the gas tank, etc.) other than replacing the fuel pump. Please , someone help me. I am at the end of my rope and can not keep driving around with my car doing this randomly.

I’m currently having the same issue with the same your model was your issue ever resolved???? You

 

I have had similar but not the exact intermittent VTEC issues on a 02 CRV. I cleaned (MAF Sensor cleaner spray) the connectors (both) on the back of the engine passenger side and it goes away. If I wash down the engine and get that area wet it comes back.

Let me know if that helps...
