Without the exact codes, I can't be sure what the issue is and tell you how to correct it. However, your spark plugs need to be replaced with Honda spark plugs from a Honda dealership otherwise your issue will persist.

They have to be Honda ones otherwise your issue will persist. Aftermarket spark plugs aren't going to fix your issue.

Ok, you would need to address the spark plugs and coils first. The 1286 and 128a are for rocker pressure arm oil pressure sensor b stuck low and high.

Still not sure what you need?
Have a certified mobile mechanic diagnose what's wrong with your car, at your home or office.
