Hi....welcome to the Club There are still a few Aerodecks around but not many on the road. Spare parts especially panels are becoming harder to source but mechanically they are usually reliable as were most of the early models.

I adjusted the rear arms many years ago but were tough to loosen given where they are located so some effort may bew required to free them up. With four wheel alignment on this setup it is important to check and adjust from the rear first as a lot of operators adjust the front to compensate for the rear readings which is not what you are looking to do

I would imagine it would last a great deal longer if the fluid and filter were changed in the transmission which quite often is neglected from service and maintenance routines

definitely the wisest and cheapest repair

a fine car throughout the years and the different generations of the CR-V

Hi...welcome to the Club Fantastic car to own - haven't seen one on the road in years. Good to have you onboard

Well I suppose its done well over all these years but they can get a bit thin over time with all the shifting back and forwards. I replaced one on a 3rd generation CR-V and it was very easy to pull the trim off and attach the new gaiter but kept pulling out as the material was too thick and rigid

I think if they are original roof rails and they are now 19 years old and I would therefore place as little weight on them as possible to be on the safe side

that's a brilliant ad and wished other manufacturers could do something this ingenious - now they just focus on the lifestyle aspect and forget its even a car.

things seemed so much easier back in the day - as long as the tyre was round then it was fine 🙂

I think some of them are making a revival - at least in name though Lost too many good brewerys over the years (Ringwood Brewery my local one has now closed) :-(

It should fit the apeture but Halfords stock kits to ensure the wiring and fascia are suitable

I agree with you Alan, it was by far the best of all the generations so far

More than likely this is the DPF regenerating and while that is active then possibly it will not allow the service reset to occur at the same time?

wasn't sure what the arrows surrounding the spanner meant so looked it up: AI Overview The image displays an icon representing a wrench encircled by two arrows in a cyclical motion This icon typically symbolizes: Settings or Options: The wrench often denotes tools or configurations, and the arrows can imply a refresh or update of these settings. System Maintenance or Repair: It can indicate an ongoing process related to system checks, repairs, or optimizations. Automatic Updates or Synchronization: The circular arrows suggest a recurring or automatic process, potentially related to software updates or data synchronization. Loading or Processing: In some contexts, it can signify that a system is busy processing or loading information, particularly when related to system configurations or background tasks
