CR-V 2007 to 2011

  1. Started by KevinD,

    Hi all I have a 2017 CRV and the tyre pressure monitor has come on and I have been told by my local dealer that it’s because I recently changed a rear tyre due to a non repairable puncture and the replacement tyre doesn’t match the other tyre and that they should only be changed in matching pairs although they are both the same make and the other one was a new pair three months ago, is this correct.

    Hi, I wonder if anyone can offer some advice please. I have a 2016 Honda CRV on a 1.6 diesel. I am changing the air filter and I have undone all three clips. However for the life of me, I am unable to remove the housing to access the filter. I can see that here appears to be two slots to the right that the housing fits in, but still having a nightmare. Any tips please.

  7. Dear All, I need your support on some issues which I'm currently facing since day one of my purchase. I live in the Middle East and have purchased a brand new Honda CRV 2019. 1) The vehicle center top dome light works but it is actually supposed to get dim gradually and automatically go off once I get inside and switch on the engine. However, the lights only get illuminated when I open the door and remain continually on and I dunno why this problem exists. I tried changing the setting in the three stages available, however no use. 2) When I turn on the ignition I start playing the audio (MP3) from my USB the track plays properly however after approx 2 minutes the…

  10. Hi, my car drives lovely but draws me to ask about the auto gear selection and if this is typical with other like model owners. When cruising on a motorway at 70mph on a level road the car sits in 8th gear at around 1800 rpm and if on a slight gradient it drops to 7th. I don’t seem to experience it using 9th gear for cruising. If I sneek up to around 80 mph, It appears I still have to manually select 9th with the paddles, it will then change up to 9th but unless going downhill it soon goes back to 8th. Is this how the car is designed to run in regards to the gears and 9th not being used when at our national speed limit? I have contacted Honda and oddly, they dont know …

  13. Hi all. I'm new to car forums but I thought I would give it a go, I have a problem my CRV 2008, that mechanic can't cure. I keep getting an intermittent vibration coming up through the steering wheel, sometimes it lasts for a second or two, other times it can last as much as twenty seconds.. Sometimes this is so bad the windscreen shakes as well. I happens all the time but it is more noticeable while on cruise control at between 38 and 40mph. Has anybody heard of this or knows something about it. I would be very grateful for your help. Thank you.

    As previously mentioned, I bought a 2010 CR-V awd auto with 57,000 mileage several months ago. Happy with it except for excessive road noise. When I look down in the engine bay, past the engine I expected to see some sort of under body tray which would hopefully lessen the noise but I can see straight down to the road. So I wondered whether at some previous service a tray or cover(s?) had been left off by accident. Or does it fact not need one? If one is needed I would be very grateful for the correct part description. Many thanks for any advice you can give me. Brian Pfeiffer

    Hi. I have a 2016 1.6 I-Dtec SR CRV. It has the engine warning light on which has been diagnosed with needing a new 'Air fuel ratio sensor 1'. The error code are Error code: P0133 and P2A00 The local Honda dealer has quoted me over 700 pounds to supply and fit the replacement sensor.. the car drives fine and fuel consumption is normal. So i'm looking to get a non-Honda replacement and a local specialist has recommended Denso as a alternative, but the problem is finding and sourcing the sensor needed. The Honda part number is Part number: H36531RZ0G01 Does anyone know where I can source a replacement sensor and what product numbe…

  19. Hi, Having had several months with an audio problem with my mk 4 (2015) CR-V I thought others may benefit from my resolution! Problem As topic title, I experienced a buzzing/electrical noise back in spring 2022 after a 30-minute drive in the rain. I’ve checked the micro blade fuses under the bonnet and passenger glove compartment and all are intact. The rear speakers are operating normally, so it’s only the front speakers with the problem. The unwanted noise seems to differ. It’s more obvious (higher pitch) when accelerating compared to coasting (foot off the accelerator). You do hear a difference too when changing gears. The Bluetooth ph…

    We purchased a 2 wheel drive 2014 CRV in 2017 with 33,000 miles from a Honda dealer. On way home we noticed it shuddered at 60 mph. Took it back and eventually they changed both driveshafts. Fast forward another 36,000 miles and it’s started again. Honda have said it needs new Driveshafts again at a cost of £2,000. Cars now 8 years old and completed 70,000 miles, but to need 2 sets of driveshafts seems crazy. Has anyone else heard of this issue?

    Hi Alan I have always used Rock 5w 30w fully synthetic oil in my CRV as its recommended by Honda, If you are unsure as my Honda is a Petrol and I believe your CRV is a Diesel it might be worth giving the Main Honda Dealer a quick call and ask if there is a difference, I really don't know, sorry Alan.

    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 securin…

    Hello All, I have returned to the fold - after nearly 2.5 years of disappointing Volvo ownership (which - to be fair was bought as a stop-gap car after my previous CR-V was written off), I am now the proud and happy owner of a 2013 Diesel EX auto. It's early days but I am liking it very much so far. I need to get a tow bar and associated electrics fitted; my question is whether there is an advantage in going the 'dedicated/Honda' electrics or whether the Universal electrics will suffice. I'm trying to understand if there are any electronic towing assistance aids - the manual doesn't really give any indication about this at all. TIA …
