Product Details

This Dorman brake master cylinder reservoir cap, part number 42038, is designed for vehicles that use a round reservoir cap without a separate seal. It cross-references Honda part number 46662S04J01 for the same application. Compatible With 1998-2002 Honda Accord, 1980-2000 Honda Civic, 1997-2001 Honda CR-V, 1997-2001 Honda Prelude, 1998 Honda Odyssey, 1993-1997 Honda Civic del Sol, 1988-1991 Honda CRX, 1997-2003 Acura TL, 1998-1999 Acura CL, 2001-2003 Acura CL, and 1997-2001 Acura Integra. The Dorman 42038 is a practical replacement when the original reservoir cap is cracked, missing, or no longer sealing properly at the reservoir opening.

What It Helps Solve

  • Broken or missing brake master cylinder reservoir cap
  • Cap that no longer matches the reservoir opening
  • Loss of proper reservoir closure from a damaged plastic cap
  • Replacement needs after service on Honda or Acura brake systems
  • Wear-related deterioration of the original cap

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the reservoir shape and application before installation. This cap is round and does not use a separate gasket or seal. Confirm the vehicle year, make, and model against the listed fitment before ordering, especially on Honda Accord, Honda Civic, and Acura TL applications.

Quality Assurance

Dorman engineers this cap to match original fit and function on specified vehicles and to deliver dependable service in brake system applications.
