Thanks again Trevor for this information. Booked in for next Tues/Weds Alan

Ah that's an even better price then! Clutches can wear faster when towing heavy weights (twin axle car trailer for example) but it is also the stop-start motion on the transmission which is being pushed to the limit unless the trailer is braked and then this can reduce the 'whiplash' on the transmission components

Thanks Trevor, the dual mass flywheel is in the price. First time I've ever had a clutch need replacing on any car I've had. This little CRV has a tow bar on the back don't know hpw much work she did but is it true towing does wear a clutch out quicker??

Hi....welcome to the Club What happened with the original engine. how did it fail?
-
Hi Tony Perfect car for the environment by the sounds of it A lot less to go wrong with that generation of CR-V as well so more suited to taking onto rough and unmade roads Good to have you onboard!
-
Seems fair enough considering the level of work required to replace the clutch I would, however, be expecting to have the Dual Mass Flywheel replaced within that cost as well

Seems my 2005 CRV desel 2.2 CRV is after 136.000 mikes in need of a new clutch been given a priice of £1100 fitted does this seem a fair price? Its booked in for next week at the local garage I use. Alan

Hi - I am a newcomer to this forum, hope someone can give me some advice, please. Could not open the door with the remote fob to disarm the alarm, put the key in drivers door,when opened, alarm went off, unable to stop it until used the remote key pressed up against the front passenger door, alarm stopped. I am now concerned about opening the door, If the alarm is activated, will it stop if the battery is disconnected or is there a backup supply to the alarm? Regards - Alan

Hi guys. I moved to fuerte and bought a 2001 Mk1 CRV for the lava tracks over here. It rips these up and is a great car for this island. It's had / got a few niggles, but I'll look at the forums. Gracias amigos.

Is your CRV a gen 2 or gen 3 and which engine is it? Great advice from Trevor, you can also a get special tool for rounded nuts to remove them, careful with the amount of torque you use or you could snap the bolt/stud!

I am Nigel (north of 50), I live in Reading and I am the proud owner of a 3rd gen 2.0L petrol 07 CRV. I am a keen diy-er and I love to 'tinker'. I had to replace my engine a year ago, which I did myself with a little help (muscle) from a friend. It is my intention to rebuild the old engine as a spare or resale as project when the days get longer. My only problem is I can't get a service manual for the R20A2 engine installed in my car. I bought a service manual (pdf) for the correct vehicle, but that engine was not in it. I'd be thankful for a little help/advice.

I think I would be tempted to soak the nuts in WD40 or other penetrating oils over time before attempting to undo them. Using a wire brush in between treatments should also remove corrosion and you then stand a chance of removing them without breaking the studs and also being able to reuse the nuts

The spark plugs on my 2007 CRV EX need replacing. However, on my engine, the coil packs are on the front of the engine and not under a cover like many of those I’ve seen online. The coil packs are secured with a nut the screws onto a stud that protrudes through the coil pack but the nuts and the securing stud are so badly rusted away (we live near the sea) that I can’t get the nuts off and so can’t remove the coil packs. I’m worried that I might break the stud that the coil pack securing but screws onto, and I’ve not been able to find replacements online. Can anyone help by providing a part number, or a link to where I can buy some replacement studs that coil pack securing nut screws onto. Many thanks

Moynzy started following Honda CR-V EX i-VTEC automatic - Battery/ AFS/ Heated Seat
-
Hello all, I have a Honda CR-V EX i-VTEC automatic, model year 2007. Last month, my car failed to start when I turned on the engine. It seems the battery had a dead cell and was replaced under warranty. A week later, the car failed to start again! I called RAC, who conducted a battery test and found no issues. They jump-started the car for me, and I was able to take it to the garage, where they confirmed that the battery is healthy and did not show any drops. This morning, my car failed to start once more (Second time since changing battery). It has been 9 days since RAC jump-started it, and my new battery is flat. When I turn off the car, I first switch off the headlights, then turn off the engine. I ensure that no lights are visible when the car is locked. The glove compartment does not have a light, nor does the boot, so I am clueless. Has anyone experienced their battery being drained like this before? The next step would be a parasitic draw test, but I can only do this on the 15th. Are there any DIY troubleshooting steps I can take? Update: I got my car started and fully charged. I went to test blue tooth and it didn't work. So I assumed i don't have blue tooth module. This morning, after parkin up at work I pressed the voice button, and to my surprise it made a noise and then I said English, and it returned a command! So it looks like, yesterday the Bluetooth Module failed to turn on, but this morning it worked?! I have checked YouTube, but do not know how to remove this Bluetooth add in. Regarding AFS, when I go over bumps my AFS switches on. Heated seats, driving seat does not work, but the light on the switch turns on. Is this an element that needs replacing? Right front bumper parking sensor. on the plastic cover, it's scratched up so I imagine the scratches are interpreted as objects. Can this plastic lens be replaced? Thanks, Mo

Hello, I am looking to purchasing a Honda HR-V 2022 model this summer, but will buying a barely used one (less than 1,000 miles). It says on Honda’s website that you have 5 years/90,000 (whichever comes first) warranty on the battery, I want to know how long will the hybrid battery last on the HR-V? I know this varies based on a lot of factors but I plan to keep this car at least 6-7 years. So I want to see what I am in for in the long run. What happens after 5 years/90,000 miles? Does Honda do extended warranty on the battery? How much would it cost roughly to change the battery (worst case scenario out of warranty)? I will call Honda tomorrow for further information but wanted to check here if anyone has any information on this? Thank you.

Thanks Guys. It's great to know there are other like me. Before I had my first CRV, I'd get a new status symbol car and then start looking for what I would have next. My first old Mk1 CRV was a breath of fresh air. It was joy and freedom. My phone cost more than the car I was driving but to me it was fun on wheels, what's more it had a picnic table in the book. Cheers Jon -
Good morning! I am trying to source a RH front knuckle (P/N - 51210-S7A-020) for my 2004 Sport SE Stream. It is available from Honda but with a 4-week lead time and a cost of £320! Can anybody here point me in the right direction where I might be able to source a good second-hand option. Cheers guys... Chris
