The fix is a one-afternoon job, and it only makes sense to do the whole top end at once. This AUXITO kit arrives with everything for one engine: the valve cover gasket, the four spark plug tube seals and the five grommets, for the 2001-2005 Civic 1.7L engines listed below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVehicle fitment \u0026amp; specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"border-table not-table-block\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda Civic DX, LX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2001-2005, 1.7L SOHC L4 (D17A1)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda Civic EX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2001-2005, 1.7L SOHC L4 (D17A2)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda Civic HX\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2001-2005, 1.7L SOHC L4 (D17A6)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHonda Civic GX (CNG)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2001-2005, 1.7L SOHC L4 (D17A7)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve cover gasket set\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRubber, metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlacement on vehicle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eValve cover to cylinder head, top of engine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eQuantity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10 pieces (1 gasket, 4 tube seals, 5 grommets)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOE number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12341-PLC-000, 12030-PLC-000, 90442-PLC-000, 12342-P08-004\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterchange number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVS50606R, VS50384, VS50384S, 56029100, 0361599, VC41700, 0939729, AVC143S, 155373601, 0361883\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDurable rubber\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHeat and abrasion resistant rubber that holds its shape through the heat cycles of daily driving, for long-lasting reliability in every season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGood sealing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMolded to the cover profile so it seats tight at every port — no oil leakage, for the long run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete top-end kit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGasket, tube seals and grommets in one box, so the valve cover comes off exactly once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTested before shipping\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e100% tested — parts are validated on the vehicle to ensure they perform on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment check\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis set covers the 2001-2005 Civic DX, LX (D17A1), EX (D17A2), HX (D17A6) and the CNG-powered GX (D17A7) — the full 1.7L D17 range.
