Waxoyl is the best product for preserving metalwork on any vehicle

You should replace it before it starts to knock when turning in on a tight turn (such as pulling onto a driveway or threepoint turn) The oil can be purchased from eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GENUINE-HONDA-CRV-DPS-FLUID-DIFF-OIL-1-LITRE/392495346713?epid=1415923714&hash=item5b628bb419:g:t-sAAOSwSONcM4GV

Did a hard-wire on my CR-V a while ago but cannot remember which feed it was from (possibly interior lights?). Used a multi-meter to find a permanent 12 volt feed

Hi....welcome to the Forum The 12volt system is designed to avoid battery drainage and therefore there aren't many points within the vehicle where you can grab 12volts with the ignition off. However, I hard-wired a dashcam in my CR-V a little while ago and it took ages to find a 12volts permanent feed but eventually got one using a multimeter....sorry can't remember which circuit it was though....may have been interior lights. They are there in the fusebox but will require a multimeter to find it

Wow! that's going to be hard to source. Alternatively, if you could get a sleeve to go on the shaft as the shaft may have wear in a specific spot and the seal cannot work effectively. Even with a new seal you may need to sleeve the shaft

Couple of useful articles (although non-UK sourced) https://www.torquenews.com/1084/honda-civic-cr-v-oil-dilution-problem-what-you-should-do-now http://www.hondaproblems.com/oil-dilution/ Although it may not be prevalent in the UK it is still worth checking oil level and quality more frequently to ensure no washdown is occurring

Thought it may be turbo variable vanes if it were a diesel engine. They tend to get gummed up with carbon and stick in place, leading to lack of boost

If it were the brakes then it could be a stone caught up in the disc or even the backing plate rubbing against the disc. If it is the air conditioning system then it could be the gas cavitating or the drive pulley or belt. Either way, I would take into a garage to have it diagnosed as this could lead to more expensive repairs if not attended to soon Let us know what you find

It doesn't look like the hose to expel the air cond residue but that could be above it and dropping down onto the plastic tray as seen in the photos. If it doesn't have a chemical smell to it (e.g. fresh water and not antifreeze) and nothing is leaking from the cooling system.....coolant level is still where it should be then it is more than likely the air con. In which case you don't need to worry about it, but I would definitely check the coolant level is correct and not leaking to be on the safe side.

Hi Sarah....welcome to the Forum I cannot quite see the detail as it is a bit dark but if it is between the two front seats and is emitting water then it is more than likely the air conditioning waste hose which is when the air cond draws down moisture from the inside of the car it then dumps it out on the floor under the car when you pull up. If it looks like a hose/pipe then thats what it more than likely is.

What engine is it?

Hi.....welcome to the forum here is a link to wikiobd https://www.wikiobd.co.uk/models.php?pt=1&mn=23

Had the same issue on my CR_V because I wanted to mount it where the black dots are on the screen. Bought a 3M double sided sticky pad from eBay which did the job nicely.

Hi ..... welcome to the Forum I think once you've had a Honda its alway pleasant to return to one. I always believe it is like putting on an old pair of comfy slippers 🙂 Good to have you onboard

There should be some settings to change the tone but would need to read the manual to find the access route to it

Hi....welcome to the Forum Good to have someone from the USA joining us here on the UK site....I believe Honda is quite universal apart from the different names allotted to some of the cars. Flat Head engines...that takes me back in time 🙂

Adespin Falken have been producing tyres since the early eighties and are heavily involved in motorsport and seem to have a good reputation for the road with keen prices as well. I would trust them and I'm particular with tyres !

Nickyt. How are you getting on with the new baby?

I would check further inside the bulkhead as it can collect due to blocked drain tubes, which can usually be cleared out by running a metal coat hanger through it and then see if anything runs out from under the car

I have experienced seized calipers on my CR-V and replaced it with a recon one. problem solved

Not sure, but worth a try if you have the parts to hand. Let us know if you do attempt it and how if works out

You may be able to get some keys recut and just replace the blade inside the fob. Having loads of keys and keyrings hanging from the ignition key is a good way to introduce wear into the mechanism due to undue weight hanging off the key

I don't think you'll find anything newer for Honda from 2018, they are always slower to update than other manufacturers

Hi....welcome to the Forum I would start by determining whether it is a fuel or electrical issue. Has the Crankshaft Sensor been checked? If the starter is turning over slowly then it may well be the battery. But also be sure to check all earth connections and leads. If it is fuel then start with the filter and work forward from there. Fault codes would help to narrow down the possibilities. Let us know how you get on with it

Hi....welcome to the Forums water in the boot could be coming through the light units which is common on many vehicles. The heater however may be the diverter flaps which could be stuck in one position and would require further invesigation. Otherwise, the Civic is generally a very reliable model much the same as most Honda cars
