Cvt clutch judder
Hi...welcome to the Forum Clutch judder could be down to a couple of things.... Defective clutch pressure plate (broken springs) or defective driven plate (breaking up) Also, other areas like engine/gearbox mounts being worn or damaged and also worn driveshaft joints. Worth checking these items prior to committing to a new clutch Let us know how you get on with it

All is fine but Dash Light ?
Definitely sounds like a trip to the dealership with your wallet as I cannot think of any other explanation at this stage

All is fine but Dash Light ?
Just a thought but have you got the key in a Faraday pouch and the signal is being blocked ?

Hello, My first CR-V purchased a year ago
Hi Zane.....welcome to the Forum That is probably about right for the petrol engine, apart from ensuring that the engine is mechanically sound to deliver maximum MPG then there probably isn't much more that you could do to improve upon it. Good to have you onboard, Cheers . Trevor

2014 CRV Brake Pads
I would run the registration number through Eurocarparts website and see what options they give you. If you look at the Fitment tab that will show what the differences are. Worst-case scenario, get both sets and return the one that is wrong Good luck

Found steering wheel controls wires for audio
That's brilliant...would definitely be interested in how this works out because, like you, I hate the idea of controls not working. Keep us updated

Wiring for towbar
Hi....welcome to the Forum I have answered your post in the other part of the forums but here is a copy as well Good to have you onboard Cheers, Trevor

Wiring for towbar
I would take advice from a specialist towbar installer as the car will be running a CanBus electrical system which means you can't just wire in a socket like the old days, rather the electrics would have to run through a special control unit to interface with the lighting system and not create any errors.

Routing an In-Car cam cable down A pillar
I tucked my cabling down the A pillar trim as it only has to just tuck in behind enough not to be seen and therefore you don't need to remove the trim

Hello from Warwickshire
probably the case but easy to simulate by disconnecting and applying a load to the boot to see if the headlamps shift down

Honda 'approved' fluids
I think I would stick to the genuine Honda oil if poss.....bought some for my CRV diff on eBay and loads cheaper than dealership

tailgate issue
Hi....welcome to the Forum I would definitely go back to the dealership and get them to change it under warranty as this shouldn't happen on a car this new. It's a common fault on some Nissans but wasn't aware of it on Honda's though

Honda FRV
Crikey, that's a lot of money for a sensor but I suppose if it works then so be it

1.6 i-DTEC EX - couple of questions please
I would therefore change it more frequently just in case it has had been missed over time

Hello from Warwickshire
Hi....welcome to the Forum There are two reasons for height sensors: 1. to give a reading to feedback to hydraulic/pneumatic dynamic suspension where the dampers or air bags will adjust according to ride heights. 2. to give a reading to feedback to the Xenon headlights to ensure other road users don't suffer glare from the headlamp. If you disconnect it and see if one of your headlamps doesn't adjust on one side. Let us know what you find. Cheers, Trevor

Honda FRV
I would imagine a sensor from an Accord should work, just find the one that has the longest lead length and see if it compares to yours. I bought one from ebay for a 2005 Accord and is was around £15

Issues with Idle Stop on Honda HRV
Surely being only two years old the car should have some sort of warranty? I would persist in hassling the dealer if it is affecting drivability and / or safety

1.6 i-DTEC EX - couple of questions please
That's really bad if they claim they carried out a service and did not.....I would therefore go to an independent garage from now on, who will in fact do the same job and a sight cheaper as well

New member CRV Idtec
You can't beat a CRV for long distance touring, used mine all the time to go to the European race circuits and still felt fresh on arrival (usually 11 hours later!) The aux socket tends to work when you put the audio on auxiliary and control the rest from the phone...try another lead as the one you have may be faulty?
