You sure you don't have to buy that whole thing?

ya, i was in service and all plastic parts and top electric things are all good, only rubbers are damaged and need replacement, i did search local market physically, all over the internet and everywhere i do find whole things and i don`t need whole things and trying to find only rubber to save some $$$...
Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and buy an assembly when you only need part of the assembly. I see this every day.

Highly doubt the piece your looking for is sold on its own.

You need the whole Coil pack. The rubber seal isn’t sold separate. If you really want to save money, buy an aftermarket one, swap it.

Aftermarket means a non factory (OEM/Honda) product or part.

Ya, as i thought, i was offered rubber that fits phisically to my coil plug holes but i didnot brought , was hoping to get oem rubbers... seems like I'll go and get those :cautious:

Thanks guys.
I agree it looks like it's not sold separately, need to buy the whole coil, unless you're talking about the other rubber, marked 3 in the image.

nah, sadly not that...the one on the top of coil itself as marked in picture.

I did brought non Honda rubbers that just fit in size with my coil and changed them. i`m not sure but seems it helped, car was vibrating at low RPM and today it was all fine without vibration.
just need to pray those non Honda rubbers will not damage fast and will be normal quality :D

The whole car was vibrating? What led you to believe this piece was causing it?

on my own i do not have knowledge and understanding of cars, i was in service and after checking and diagnostic technician told me to in first place replace those rubbers, they "leak electricity to walls of that hole (as i understood, something like that)" and pistons wasn't working properly, when car not moves it vibrates even now, and that is some other part need to change, TRANSMISSION MOUNT SET or something like that English name, but when it was vibrating during drive on low RPM technician told me that those rubbers MAY help as they are damaged (as i explained above)... idk i hope he knew what he was talking :unsure:
Oh ok. I hope he inspected the spark plugs too. If the porcelain/ceramic insulator is cracked, electricity can leak out the side and cause cylinders to misfire and make the engine less balanced.

ya, he removed and did check spark plugs too and told they are in good contidion, also guy from whom i brought car told that sparks are are new
Thank you.
Sometimes an old or rotting muffler or it's securing bolts if they are loose can make the whole car feel like it's vibrating. I'd get under there and check it, just for sh!ts and giggles.

It's probably misfiring.
Change all 4 coil packs.
They're cheap these days.

What problem can cause misfiring? (except slight vibration i already know)
what kind of problems can occur if not change and run car that way?
The rubber insulator all cracked can not give enough spark and therefore misfire.

You can replace all 4 but a misfire would easily show itself with a flashing cel under acceleration.
