Has anyone had any issues with rough idling, and a head gasket issue (only have 750 miles on it)? Presenting at the dealership, waiting on Honda to give “permission” to tear into it. Dealership tech, believes it’s a head gasket issue.

Welcome...I've only got 5000 miles so no expert here but wanted to welcome you to the forums. I've found a tremendous amount of good information on here so I'm sure someone else has had the problem and solution. Search function is your friend.

Sorry to read that you are having a problem, jbunck. I have not read about head gasket being a problem or issue on 3.5L Honda engines.

Hope it turns out to be something less significant. Please return with more info as you receive it.

Good Luck

Welcome to the forum! What year and trim level do you have? Best of luck with the repair. Please let us know the outcome. Hope this is just a minor blip in your PP ownership.

I lot of people come in here looking for answers, the original poster has only ever made 1 post here ever, but it would be interesting to know what was resolved, but I wouldn't hold my breath...lol

Agreed! Thinking about it... Has there been a known head gasket with any of the J series engines? My Passport makes the 4th time ('02 Accord V6, '06 Acura TL, '07 Accord V6/6MT are the others) I've owned a vehicle with a J-series V6. So far these engines have been rock solid reliable for me.
