I have a 2002 CRV EX and recently went by a gas station selling gas that was 85% Ethanol and 15% unleaded. It was going for 1.85 a gallon and the regular was...
Tom: Since the heating value of ethanol is so much lower than gasoline you need to burn twice the volume of alcohol to go the same distance on regular...

On my '98 CRV the center areas of the alloy wheels with the 'H' on it have been getting really worn looking and chipped. Is that section of the wheel plastic?...
Hi everyone, I have a friend with a 1997 CRV. Never had a problem. Runs perfectly. She recently moved out of PA to NJ and had to take it to a local Honda ...
I also have a 2002 CRV with around 23000 miles and the key for this vehicle also gets very warm, actually almost hot when it is removed from the ignition. What...
My wife's '98 has the exact same problem. The 'centers' are painted plastic and the paint is either wearing or chipping off (maybe a little bit of both). Is...
