There are several things that could cause this problem. First is when was the last time you replaced the fuel filter? Next thing you need to do is open your radiator cap to see if there is oil in your coolant and also pull your oil dipstick to see if there is any white stuff on the bottom of the dipstick. If either of these things are true then you have a blown head gasket. The last thing could be a bad coil or even engine control unit (ECU). Good luck.
you are going to have to identify the liquid in order to find the problem. or at least find where its leaking from. Engine oil? power steering fluid? see if the PS fluid is low, if it is, that could be the leak. See if the engine valve cover is leaking, thats on top, if it is, get that replaced and have the valves adjusted at the same time.
Normally, when air is trapped in the cooling system the radiator cap will vent the air out into the recovery tank, mostly when the engine is off and cooling down. That is completely normal. However, if you see bubbles continuously while the engine is running you may have a blown head gasket or worse, a cracked head.
do compression test they call wet test and dry wet is with oil in cylinders and dry is without oil in cyls this will give a idea if the rings or engine has problems it could be a head gasket or valve stem o rings dry and cracked
I believe this is a code the VTech engines will set if a oil solenoid valve doesn't open in the cylinder head to provide extra oiling when the engine RPM's exceed 4k. The best I recall the valve in the head is usually faulty if this code is present.
Honda accord 2.2L and 2.7L engine's are interference engine's, which if timing belt breaks it will bent cylinder head valve's, cylinder head will have to come out to replace bent valve's, also your water pump is timing belt driven not bad idea to also replace while in there, good luck, hope this was very helpful.
dr_greg is incorect. The bleeder valve is on the thermastat housing near the intake manifold. Follow the hose from the top of the radiator to the the engine. Look for something that looks like a 12mm head nut with a metal nipple comming through it. If you change your coolant but do not open this valve untill coolant flows from it you may cause an air pocket to remain in your engine, possibly causing your car to over heat.
What engine is fitted, diesel or petrol ? what size is the engine ?
