P C V valve price question?

[RCracer]

OK I went to the local honda dealer today to pick up some more parts for the B20a engine swap that I am doing.
As I am running the B20a on a carb I though I would buy a new PCV valve.
When it came time to pay. He told me the price.
I was like
The price:-

PCV valve H17130-PH1-003 £26.53 GB ($39.80 US)

I remember reading that the PCV vales are not expensive so asked him if the price was correct and he said it was.


What prices have you paid for the PCV valve??

i believe i paid $2 canadian for mine
check the part # against the prelude b20 and see if they match, if so get one from a parts store

I paid like $3.00 US not too long ago for mines!

I thought that was a bit high as well..still haven't installed it, I needed the recipet to "prove" that the car was "repaired", as I actually changed iginition timing to pass emissions, but that would have been needed to be done by a "real shop"..normal droids like myself can only "change parts".

$11 seems fair enough..while most american cars PVC go for $5

Well I figured that it would happen one day.
Cheaper to buy off the net and pay for shipping than get from the local dealer.

Ive always known that the UK honda dealers were having a laugh with their prices but this has taken the pi$$.

I suppose that I have no choice for some of the B20a parts other than go to the honda dealer

Hey Aerodeck,

Just so you don't feel alone, I actually paid $20 for a PCV valve ONCE from my local Honda dealer. I was having an idle problem and someone reliable suggested that my problem stemmed from using an aftermarket PCV valve instead of Honda's. Well, to make a long story short, it made no difference, so it's back to the $2.00 Purolator valve from Pep Boys!

hey Paul ! it'll be cheaper off the net even cheaper from other sites that the one i stated above !
