I normally do this mod on all my cars so that I can roll the windows up or down without a key. Until now, all it takes is removing the window relay and...
Hello all, recently, while attending a baseball game for my grandson, I attempted to pull into a parking space. I went a little too far and came onto a small...
As far as I know the CRV uses standard differentials front and rear. This means that one wheel on each axle can spin just the way one wheel can spin on a 2 ...
Thank you for the reply. I still have to feel the benefit of it especially when winter comes over to Jersey. I did try it a few times on an uphill climb and...
Jeff, The differentials in the CR-V are 'open', meaning they have no locking mechanism AND it has no traction control system (perhaps the newer models do, my...
Okay, just as I thought... some marketing idiot figured that the American public would be so gullible as to swallow the notion of 4 Wheel Drive when in fact it...
Hi Jeff, No offense meant, but I can tell you are new to the world of 4 wheel drive as that's the way they have been made pretty much since being invented. ...
Jeff, I'm not sure you fully understand the mechanics. If the Audi offers limited slip differentials or some sort of traction control, then you will get...
Check the manual,it should have that info. Or try accelerating in d3 and see how fast you are traveling as you are approaching redline rpm, (around 6000). I...
Howdy I recently managed to dent the driveshaft of my 4WD LX '98 CRV. From that moment, I have started feeling vibrations in my car. I have following...
--Sam, If it were mine, I would take it to a drive shaft shop and have it looked at. First you may want to find out what a new one, or good used one cost. The...
I did not mean to nor intend to disrespect either the vehicle, nor the people who own them. My complaint, and you mentioned it in your response, is with the...
Hi Jeff, No offense taken and none meant here either but I just have to tease. I think Webster would have to call what you are referring to as ALL WHEEL, ALL...
I need to replace my propeller shaft on my '99 Honda CRV. Is it easy to replace it yourself? From the looks and what I read in the repair manual it seems...
Then while you're at it, you may as well stop by your local Ford, Chevy, Dodge, Toyota, Nissan, etc... dealer too and file your complaint, because the "4WD"...
Kia Sorento offers limited slip in rear standard. Subau's Forrester awd system has limited slip front and rear. Toyota Rav4 has traction control standard...
Folks, At the regular oil change, my dealer "recommended" a 15K-mile service which includes replacement of in-cabin air filter. The price? $250. I found it...
Car sales are down for many and this is a way of pumping up the bottom line
for their stealership. My Honda dealership in LaGrange GA is wonderful.....now I...
I have no problem with trying to earn some extra $$ by offering service. But to use scare tactics such as invalidation of warranty is a bit unethical. On top...
During my last service visit (20,000 mile service and o/c) the dealer recommended changing the cabin ar filter ... the price to me (in Central NJ) for this...
I would highly recommend that you check it or change it out atleast once a year especially if you can do it yourself. You will be amazed with all the stuff...
I've never heard of this filter before and my wife's 98 has 92,000 miles on it. I just called the dealer to order one, they want $29 for it. Does anyone know...
It is probably all clogged up with dirt and debris after 6 year of service. You can also get them at your local big chain auto parts store like Autozone, Pep...
Thanks to all who responded. I will research it little further and more than likely will end up changing filters myself. Again, I was not against changing...
My experience with the in cabin filter is with our Odyssey. The first filter replacement takes much more effort than usual. Apparently, when the car is...
there's lots of detailed info on replacing these filters yourself (both 1st and 2nd gen models) at the www.hondasuv.com site...its really very easy and you can...
Ever since I got my CRV, it's always very loudly changed gears right around 65 MPH. I've never really thought anything of it. Recently I was driving with...
Well, I picked up the filter today from the local Honda dealer. Using the instructs I was able to find on hondasuv.com, I was able to change it in about 30...
Hi I just boght a 2005 crv it is black and was wondering if anyone has any tips for keeping the paint looking good? Should I go get it waxed now? How often...
Tracy- I have ablack 97 - the paint is still awesome and I dont do much to it. I would suggest u get it waxed at least once a year. I dont know where u live...
