Head gasket and if you call the dealer with your Vin # they can tell you if it is still eligible.

yea sounds like BHG to me. You should call the dealer and find out if the recall has been done or not. and get a leak down test. maybe you wont have to do both sides. GL!

also a few guys (on the Acura-legend.com forums, they are also very prone to BHG) have used this stuff called "steal seal" it costs around $70 per bottle and they have bearly had any problem since running this stuff, it will make ur water pump leak for a little bit but then it should stop. it seams to be normal for the product. BTW this is just a temp fix.
