2009 CRV acceleration.

[Ben]

Hello, any information on improving a crv acceleration.

The crv does not seem to be very quick from a standing start.

Thank you.

It's a 2-ton car with 140-150bhp. It's no meant to be very quick 🤔

 

You could maybe get a remap, but that's probably throwing money down a hole

I put a Tuning Box on my CR-V 2.2 cdti and it gave it much more acceleration and smoothness in driving but the trade off was the clutch slipping when the power is put down.

The clutch plate is fine and not worn but the pressure plate is an auto-adjust type and the power would cause the clutch adjustment ramp to go over the threshold and relieve the pressure on the driven plate causing it to slip.

If you didn't plant the power on all in one go then it was fine but beware, the CR-V isn't meant to be fast and there is a trade off
