  1. If you can remove it and clean it then maybe consider using a blanking plate (make sure you get one with small hole in the middle) You can clean the EGR in a solution and refit it but will have to ensure the engine is running at higher revs to keep it clear
  2. Try this company https://www.car-keys-online.com/
  3. They should pull out from clips. May require moderate force but not enough to break unit
  4. There does appear to be filters available but many different ones to chose from https://www.google.com/search?q=CRV+Sr+Auto+2015+auto+trans+filter&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB935GB935&oq=CRV+Sr+Auto+2015+auto+trans+filter&aqs=chrome..69i57j33i10i160.7108j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
  5. Let us know how you get on with it

  7. You could try adjusting the cable to gain better efficiency Maybe also see if the cables are free to move by jacking up each corner and seeing if the wheels are locked when applied
  8. Hi Jim Welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  9. Hi Donny.....welcome to the Club Here is a link to recommended oils from Castrol https://www.castrol.com/en_gb/united-kingdom/home/car-engine-oil-and-fluids/motor-oil-and-fluids-finder.html?customerType=retail Most modern oils are of a high quality so just look for the best deals for oil with the recommended specs
  10. Fantastic news Splop just goes to show how well built Honda cars were back then
  11. You should be able to bypass this tube as its only used for cooling (which is obviously important in hot weather and also when the steering is heavily used) but have done this on my BMW Z3 many years ago as a stop-gap and am still running it without issue.
  12. I suppose it is to avoid damage in colder weather but not sure how it works to do this....ambient temperature sensor readings....and why? Sorry, doesn't help much in resolving your issue but got me wondering and will see if I can find out further info
  13. That's a tough one but I would imagine if the seals are removed and matched up to alternatives such as in the link below https://www.google.com/search?q=2001+honda+accord+steering+rack+seal+kit&rlz=1C5CHFA_enGB935GB935&source=lnms&tbm=shop&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwi5qILSp6nzAhXZEcAKHadyBicQ_AUoAXoECAEQAw&biw=1730&bih=904&dpr=1 It should not matter if it is LHD or RHD as the internal seals should be the same. Another alternative which I have used very successfully and will slow down the fluid loss https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2380057.m570.l1311&_nkw=power+steering+fluid+stop+leak&_sacat=0
  14. Sounds like the ADAS that is there for the lane guidance, distance and collision avoidance? Can you post a photo of these markings?
  15. Sounds like the car may need a software update to calibrate the ADAS Best to speak to your dealer about this as it could be a safety issue if any of the sensors are out of calibration
  16. Thats interesting information Charles F and sorry to hear your wheels aren't covered for this sort of damage
  17. Hi Almach99 .... welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!
  18. Very nice spot, probably not the best place to have a breakdown though
  19. Found this answer https://www.fixya.com/cars/t15527274-torque_setting_wheel_nuts_honda_frv
  20. Yes, you can but maybe worth bypassing the A/C pump pulley by using a shorter belt if running like this for a long time
  21. Had a similar issue with my CR-V when I acquired it.....would have to constantly rest my hand on the wheel to bias it over to one side otherwise it would drag over into another lane. This was caused by the rear wheels being out of alignment (toe in/out) which is adjustable on the CR-V but not entirely sure if on the FR-V Once the rear adjustment was made, problem solved. Any adjustments on alignment should be made on the rear first if out of sync, most of the time they compensate by adjusting the fronts which doesn't cure it. Also, check your tyres carefully (sizes, pressures, make (e.g. Chinese) and go with that before spending big money on it
  22. I wonder if the sensor resistance is different from the others....worth taking a reading from the new one and an existing one to compare.
  23. Look at the rear light assemblies. worth removing, looking at the gaskets and if you see signs of water then reseal them with silicon Also worth checking that the washer hose for the rear screen is not split and leaking into the boot
  24. I can honestly say I have seen a lot worse. It doesn't even look that blue from excess heat caused by slipping, although you can see evidence of this occurring (by the previous owner?) However, the CR-V uses a self-adjusting clutch and when the power is on it causes the clutch to slip due to reduced pressure on the driven plate. There used to have an issue with the cruise-control sensor adjustment on the pedal and this influenced the operational setting of the self-adjusting cover plate...although this only usually affected earlier models I believe.
  25. Good result all round then! 🙂 Thanks for giving us the feedback
