Crankshaft sensor location
Hi Keith I think you are right, but it will be either there or at the other end of the crankshaft near the flywheel. Worth checking there first before removing any components. How do you know it is the crank sensor, as they don't usually fail that often?

Honda civic strange noise
I can't really define the noise from the sound clip Can you describe it and compare it something similar?

Recommended place to buy a Bluetooth adapter for 08 Honda Accord?
Hi .... welcome to the Forum I believe there should be an Aux port somewhere in the car...on the CRV it is inside the centre console and some cars have them in the glovebox. There are plenty of aux adapters that can interface with the audio by transmitting to a certain FM frequency and these just plug into the cigar lighter.

Honda Karma UK forum
Welcome to the forum I believe Honda Karma have dissolved and the site is no longer running.

Flat power at low revs
It could be a perforated intercooler or boost hose. Check also the air and fuel filters have been replaced recently
-
Squeaking sound when breaking
It sounds very much like a loose brake pad or caliper and possibly missing a retaining clip. I would try another garage to see if they have any other ideas. Also, check your wheel nuts are tightened correctly

Another newbie
Hi Ben....welcome to the Forum The CRV is a truly wonderful vehicle and I love mine and had no issues over all the years. Flushing the diff oil is an easy job and makes a big difference if replaced frequently. Good to have you onboard

Manual transmission issues
So it seems the issue occurs when the transmission is warmed up?

Manual transmission issues
Hi....welcome to the Forum It could be the colder temperatures affecting the fluid/oil viscosity which is causing the symptoms you describe. Does it improve after a few miles when everything has warmed up?

Spongy brakes.
Hi....welcome to the Forum The pads will take some time to bed in and will appear to have a 'wooden' feeling to the braking efficiency for a short while. If you carry on with normal (not harsh) braking for at least a week and they should have more bite to them by then

Immobiliser Problem
Hi Rhys....welcome to the forum I have come across this issue with a Jazz of the same age and found the easiest solution was to replace the reader, immobiliser ECU and Engine Management ECU (I think, can't remember) along with a key. I got the whole lot from eBay from a broken Jazz so it cloned the old vehicle identity and it worked fine and easy to replace the components.

CVT doesn't move til the pedal is moved a long way
oh I see....well Honda's are a little more sedate 🙂 Maybe worth comparing it to another one at another dealership to see if it is isolated to that one car or whether they are the same
-
CVT doesn't move til the pedal is moved a long way
It could be dragging brakes, low fluid in the autobox or a number of issues. Certainly worth getting it checked out by a reputable garage to ensure that it doesn't lead to a more serious fault

Buying a 90s Prelude, advice please
The Prelude is a classic Honda in every sense, especially the TypeR and Four Wheel Steer versions. Good luck with your search for a good condition example, and they must surely be going up in value over the years

honda logo 5 door r/h drive speedo km
Not sure of exact value but it is worth valuing it by putting it on ebay and seeing how much it goes up to Post up a photo if you like, would be interesting to see it

Speed display
😀 That's so typically Honda...took me a while to work that one out as well

Speed display
Hi Pat....welcome to the Forum Going from memory I thought there is a speed indicator which shows the speed limit and the speed you are travelling at within the speedometer display. I think also that you can set the active cruise to comply with the prescribed speed limits. Definitely bed-time reading of the manual required to learn half of what the CRV is capable of....my one I had for years and was still finding the odd new thing here and there 🙂

The connection between a locking wheel nut and airbag
They have a way of finding issues and upselling the work at huge prices....always pays to shop around to get the issues sorted

Removing left interior panel in boot of 2013 CR-V
It is more than likely that it just requires some brute force to remove (e.g. held in with metal clips) by using hands (not tools) to pull back the panel. Maybe best to start at the bottom edge first. There would more than likely be a screw holding the handle in place
-
Rear camera, reverse lights and reverse tilt mirror all stopped working
Hi Chris....welcome to the Forum Not entirely sure of the exact problem but it will certainly be connected with the reverse switch. It may be that which is faulty and causing the problem? Alternatively it may be using the reverse lamps to trigger the other components so worth removing and checking the bulbs are working first. Let us know what you find

Automatic door lock at 10 miles an hour
Hi Amanda....welcome to the Forum Unfortunately, it is not an option on the 2016 CRV that I am aware of. There is however, a central locking button on the drivers door arm rest that will carry out the same function except you will have to manually switch it to lock every time you drive away. Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor
