    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…

  5. 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.

    Hello, I don't know if anyone can help. We lost our main key fob this week. Our second key fob has never worked and Honda failed to take any responsibility. So we only have a key fob which works if you hold it over the stop/start button. It isn't the battery that is dead. This isn't the problem. Can anyone recommend someone who can fix this fob without costing the earth like at Honda? Many thanks, Thomas

  11. Hi All, I have a 2014 2.2 EX CRV bought it Jan 2019, warranty service was done back in Oct 2019, 39kish... 2020 nothing really happened, its been about 1.5years since the last service, thought I better service it and get the discs and pads done after the MOT (which was fine)! BUT, I can't find any info in the books about what service it is meant to be! I normally buy a service pack and give the car to my local garage who does my MOTs etc. Its a low miler, so after the 39K service back in Oct 19 (box 5, 60months service box). I am on 48K, is it a half service or full service? Which pack do I need t…

  12. Hi guys, Looking for some help. I've just noticed my 3rd brake light isn't working, looks like it is full of moisture so will probably need replacing. The brake light is fitted to a spoiler and no the actual boot door itself. I've had a look online at how to remove them but not had any luck finding anything showing how to remove it from a spoiler. Has anyone had any experience of changing these out. Thanks

    I have just bought a second hand 2016 1.6 automatic AWD. When cold the gears from 1st to 2nd is slow to change and even throws me forward because I’m expecting the car to change. However when warmed up, it changes ok. I have searched and found that some advice is to change the transmission fluid? I took it to my local dealer and they couldn’t find anything wrong with it, but did advise to change the oil in the transmission. plus how much would this cost? £330 from one garage and £90 from another. They did however update a couple of software updates and charged me £85 for looking at my car and the updates. Is that to be expected from updating the software? …

    Model is a CRV SE (2016) 2.0 petrol manual This issue has just started - warning comes on after 4 or 5 mins driving Before warning appears it does auto stop as expected Disabling the AutoStart via button below handbrake removes message Warning seems to indicate battery, but there are no other issues with battery starts fine, very quickly Battery is an EFB model, EuroCar parts showing a price of £399 ! Other suppliers show £110 AGM batteries as suitable when using Reg number to identify 399 is an expensive experiment to see if it fixes issue Do you really need to use the EFB battery ? Any other suggestions please ?

    I’ve built a double bed base for a 2008 Honda CRV. I only used it twice (I run D of E courses) before the car was sadly written off (without the bed in it). It’s really good quality, comes in two pieces and along with a tailgate tent, makes for a brilliant simple camper conversion. It cost me about £200 to build. I don’t really want anything for it, but I’d like it to go to someone that will use it and benefit from it. I’ve got photos, so please email me for pics if you are interested. I’m based in East Sussex.

    Hi everyone, New to the forum but wanted to get some ideas: I have a 2012 CRV 2.2 Diesel manual with 60k miles. On a recent service (at a Honda dealer) they advised that it needs a new clutch. This seems a bit odd to me as the reason given was that the clutch bite was high. It does not have any symptom of the clutch failing such as power loss or difficulty engaging gears. The only thing which could indicate a problem is a very slight, intermittent judder changing between 1st and 2nd gear but this was not mentioned. The other issue is that the middle display (centre top of the dashboard) for range and MPG is blank. The display itself wor…

    Hi guys. I'm hopeful that someone may be able to offer some advice regarding dashboard warning lights. I've only had the car a couple of weeks and am loving it! Last week the tyre warning light came on so I took to the manual to see what the problem is? From what I read it informs of a tyre losing some pressure. So I checked all tyres and put the correct amount into each one, but the warning light is still on, and remains on some days later. I was wondering what if anyone had experienced this and could point me in the right direction? Hope to hear from someone soon. best regards

  24. Hi all, Just after a bit of advice, have the 2.2 diesel 58 plate. There is a leak on the power steering hose. Was told that the honda accord 2.2 pipe would fit.. it doesn't. (Tried this because the accord pipe was £20 compared to the crv pipe which is £96). The only difference was the thread was different and the male connector was wider. Anyone had the same problem and know a way to find a cheaper one? Every single scrappy I've contacted has sold out of them as soon as they get them in and talking mega bucks going to main dealer which we can't afford. MOT due soon and it will definitely fail on the amount its leaking. …
