Hello. I am hoping that someone will answer this question for me. I have a 2014 Civic EX, 1.8L. I have a code for either a bad cylinder on 2, or a bad coil or fuel injector. Have swapped coil from cylinders 1 and 2 and still have code on cylinder 2, so it isn't the coil. I am going to swap out the fuel injector, but there are two different parts that will fit, both OEM and both are available from the dealer.

The part numbers are 16450-RWK-003 or 16450-R2E-L01

One is around $120 Canadian, while the other is twice that.
I have called two dealers and their computers tell them that, according to my VIN, both are compatible. The only difference that I can see ANYWHERE is that the cheaper one meets California code. (I would have thought that would be the opposite.)

I guess my concern is that the part numbers are different, so the parts are as well. I am not sure why. Does anyone have any idea or information on this issue?
The only thing that I can possibly think of is that the cheaper one will tone down the amount of fuel that I have at my disposal, but again, Honda has absolutely no further information for me. For obvious reasons, if I end up changing all 4, the price difference would be pretty substantial.

Thanks to all who can help or who try.

Either buy the cheaper one or go grab a set at a junkyard for $50 or less

I have just finished replacing my cylinder 2 fuel injector. I bought the cheaper of the two that Honda lists for my 2014 Civic EX 1.8L. Works perfectly.
Still at a loss as to why there are two different part numbers for the Civic with a price difference of 300%.
