CR-V 2007 to 2011

Hi, I have fitted 4 new glow plugs and a new relay but I sill have to turn the ignition on and off for about 20 to 30 times for the glow plug light to come on? Once the light coms on then quickly off, engine starts fine. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated 🙏

Hi All, I have recently bought a 2007 CR-V Automatic with 118,000 miles on the clock and have two problems that I would like some advice on please. When starting from cold the starter motor makes a noise. I think it is at the stage when the engine has just started and the motor is disengaging. Is this something I should worry about and have fixed or should I just leave it? The automatic gearbox is occasionally behaving oddly. (I am pretty sure it is the gearbox.) It makes a noise that I can only describe as being like running over a gentle rumble strip. It only happens briefly so I am not sure whether it is actually vibrating or jus…

Hi folks, my car keeps chucking up a P1401 code even after replacing the EGR valve, any advice on what it could be would be appreciated, thanks Russell .

Hi all, I just bought a 2007 Gen 3 CRV is it a CVR box or 5 speed electric one? , any faults with these, cheers big Mark

Mk3.2 crv 2.2 148bhp diesel 2011. just had the clutch and fly wheel replaced. Since the work has been done the engine engine sound inside the cab is a lot more noticeable. Its not a fault noise just normal engine noise. It's almost as if some sound proofing is missing or a grommet is not put back properly. Ive searched but cant see anythingout of place. Any ideas

Hello I am hoping that someone may be able to help diagnose an issue with our crv 09. We have just had the clutch, fly wheel and bushes replaced. Since the work has been done the engine noise in the cab is a lot more noticeable. It's definitely got louder. Its not a fault noise just normal engine noise. It's almost as if some sound proofing is missing. The car is quite new to us and we aren't mechanically minded. Any ideas?

Good evening everyone! I come to this forum unfortunately with a small problem. My brother changed the battery in my Honda CRV, then my radio got stuck. I should mention that I am on holiday in Bulgaria. I went here to the dealership and they charged me around 45 pounds, converted to BGN. Of course I didn't pay the amount, and I started searching on the net where I could get the code. I found a website, I'll leave the link here : https://autoradiocodes.com/honda-crv/ and I want to know if it's a good idea to buy from here, or if it's a free way to get the code. I'll leave some pictures here of the car and the message on the radio

I have put a spring assister on both sides of my rear suspension to help stop the bouncing when towing our caravan. It has helped a little but what I want to know is can I add another set to stiffen it more and hopefully cure the problem even though it will be quite stiff when not towing. Thanks for your help. I have a 2007 crv front wheel drive.

I've recently purchased a 2007 2.0 EX petrol, which has a dirty lump of sponge stuck inside the fuel flap (photo attached). Is this standard, or has a previous owner added this for some reason? It's not something I've had on any other car I've owned.

I've had my 2007 CR-V nearly a month now, and twice in that time I've gone to open the boot, but it doesn't open. The car is unlocked and all doors open, but not the boot. The first time it happened I put things in the back seat instead, then tried the boot again (I think) the next day and it opened. However, yesterday I went to put things in but it wouldn't open no matter how many times I locked/unlocked the car. Is this a known issue? It's going to be my wife's main vehicle once her car has sold, so I'm trying to get anything sorted before she uses it.

Hi all . Took this as part of a car deal . Ongoing project as its a decent all rounder car and worth keeping for a couple years i think.

I removed my subframes and stripped all control arms and suspension components to delaminate the rust , rub down to metal and paint with rustoleum. ,once cured bath these assemblies in light oil to penetrate all of inside sections... repair the areas that were starting to corrode on chassis from inside out. Like filler neck and surrounding chassis double skinned panels , behind rear arch front road spray trim where it holds debris and rots through to inner sills, and got in about really hard to access places with exhaust removed also... Removed rubber grommets to spray chain lube inside channels where accessible . no wash /wax or oil application can get near this detail…

So in rolling a slightly beat up 09 plate and it's the best car I ever had

Hi new to the site can any help with how to recode a replacement electrical steering rack

Just joined this owners club so hi everybody. The rear screen wash jet is just dribbling water with no force and no fan shape. When one of the front jets was the same I had to lift the jet out and blow it clear with an airline as poking it with a pin did not work. Does the rear jet come out and if so how do I do it and should I be inside or outside the car? Thanks to anybody replying and thanks for reading my query

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.

Please can someone let me know what oil I should put in my car. I have heard that 5w30 is the right one but I dont know if that is semi synthetic or fully synthetic. Thanks in advance.

My Honda crv 2010 luggage cover will not retract,is there a fix for this ?

Hello good people of Honda Owners Club, I have just got myself a CR-V which, although registered in 2012, is of the model that ran from 2007-2011. It has slight front end damage, which has wiped out the headlamp washers. When I've taken the bumper off, I can see a short pipe projecting forward from what looks to me like a motor, that sits at the bottom outboard side of the washer fluid bottle. I expected that, when I operated the windscreen washers then water would come spurting out of this pipe, as if trying to feed the headlamp washers. However, no, in fact the water in the pipe retreated as I squirted the windscreen. I can't for the life of me work out wher…

Has anyone replaced/cleaned the EGR valve on the 2.2 DTEC engine? It looks like an absolute **** of a job. Can it be done from the top or does the exhaust need to come off? Its a rusty mess that will end up with sheared bolts if I even look at them the wrong way!

Hi all. We have a Honda crv 2007 2.2 diesel car and also a caravan. When we are towing the caravan the rear suspension feels soft even though I am within towing weights. Is there a way I can stiffen the suspension without it costing a fortune. Thanks in advance.

Why has the reversing camera stopped working on my 2007 CRV Ex? The reversing lights work OK. The camera flashed & stopped working. I guess an electrical fault but any advice is appreciated.

My 120,000 mile diesel crv on a 58 plate has developed a creeky clutch pedal when letting the pedal off/up. Honda want to change the whole pedal assembly, but i did hear there was a plastic bush assembly kit to basically re- seat the springs !! ?? Would appreciate any advise Regards Phil

Hi , starting issue. 2010 2.2 diesel Replaced glow plugs . Replaced glow plug relay. Obd fault code says glow plug control unit. Not a clue whereabouts it's mounted as took long enough finding relay.. Any clues or pictures of it. Many thanks

Have just bought 2010 CR-V 2.0E auto very pleased with it but steering is quite heavy. I believe it is electric rather than fluid. Any ideas would be very welcome Beep
