I have had my 97 CR-V since brand new. At 19,000 miles it started making a loud noise that to me sounded like a misadjusted valve. Almost every time I run the...
Noisy- I also have a 97 crv - )I was one of the first in LA to have one) I have NEVER had a problem like the one you described and I have 140k on my vehicle....
If the noise sounds like metal pinging, maybe the knock sensor is not working properly or the spark timing is slow to react. Have you tried using a higher...
I just purchased my 2000 CRV, so I don't know what the oil consumption is like yet. However, I previously owned an Acura integra with 360,000km that consumed ...
Hi, all! My wife just drove up to Seattle (passing 15k miles on the way), and found that the maintenance required light blinks exactly 10 times whenever she...
That is the standard Honda periodic maintenance reminder. It will get to a point where it stays on steady and will persist until you have it reset. mtl...
Jeff, Yes there is a way to reset it. I think it's done with the button that you use to keep track of your miles. Check your owners book, if you can't find...
Cathy I think you mean the maintenance reminder light. There are no buttons to reset check engine lights on any car. Usually if the problem is fixed and no...
yes the maintenance light can be reset by a button or a key or a specific sequence (press gas pedal 3 times with ignition on in some cars). It depends on the...
I want to take my family skiing this winter. Is there a recommendation for chains? I have the 4WD version of the CRV. Do you need chains for all 4 tires?...
Chains (if used) should be on all four wheels of a CR-V due to the fact that you will cause a "false positive" if you only put them on one set of tires and the...
I took the CR-V to Honda and they changed the oil to synthetic Chevron 5-30 weight. It took care of 70% of the noise. Still bugs me but it is much better....
Check the appropriate laws in your state concerning chain requirements. Here in Calif, in most instances, you only need to carry chains if you have 4wd and...
I have a 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara V6, 5-speed, 4x4 I am considering trading in for the Honda since I have had to have the front differential replaced TWICE in...
I drove 100 miles on I-95 in the middle of that 36 inch snowstorm last winter in our 02 CRV without any problems. There was probably a constant 4-8 inches of...
Our CRV is an 02 ex auto with no engine noise, cold or otherwise. though I do use 5-30 Mobil 1. 90% city driving too . Jeff ... bugs ... problem. ... started...
Its always best to sell the old vehicle since you get more money than on a trade, but it isnt nearly as easy or fast. Take your suzuki to carmax (if you have...
Hello everybody. I've sold my 1998 VW Passat last week and i"ve trade it for 98 CR-V. Reasons ? I want a troublesfree car.Anybody knows if this car have a...
Welcome Alain... How many miles and what options came or are ont the car?? As far as noise my 01 CRV was bought new but had a noise too.. Dealer says it is...
Alain, Welcome and Aloha from Hawaii. Yes the CRV has two pollen filters and they are located behind the glove box. The owners manual gives a pretty good ...
Jeff, I don't know what year your CRV is but my 2002 EX had the "check engine light" come on after I bought it. It would go off after a few days then come...
I am looking into buying either a new or used CRV. I love my Honda Accord (95, with 170,000 miles!!!), but it has started having a few issues this year and,...
... harsh ... window problem ... they don't wanna ... 56 000 miles and i suspect a worn tie rod end since i grab the front tire with my hand in 9:00 - 3:00...
I would recommend the '02 or newer because of a bit more power and a little more room. People like the older ones too, but I wouldn't want less power than...
My CRV is a 2002 so I'm not sure if the pollen filter is in the same place as on the 98. Do you know if it's located behind the glove box like mine? If it is...
