Cleaned most of the exposed surfaces in the engine bay using only STP Cleaning and Engine De-greasing wipes. The results turned out to be acceptable. I used the same camera and similar lighting. Before cleaning (picture taken 4 days before cleaning. A freeze frame from a video taken by the...

I've just purchased my first CRV, a 2001 SE with 220k miles. I got it for $1500. It had a clean Carfax with a decent number of records. I bought the car knowing there was going to be some initial work to clean it up and get it ready for the long Chicago winter. So, the engine bay is a little...

so we used to have a 05 CRV that my dad use to clean by simply covering some parts with plastic and just spraying it with water/soap. Now We have a '17 crv and i feel like it may have too much electronics that doing it the old way is a no-no. If I wear to clean ours now, what parts would i have...

Hello fellow CR-V owner. Recently acquired a 2003 CR-V with no service history. 95K miles on the clock, not well looked after if I'm being honest. Had it for 3 weeks so far, love it, but it has now shown signs of oil being sprayed/flung in the general area of the serpentine belt. Can't...

Hi All, New to this site. I was told by Honda of Hayward that my 2005 CRV (MT) with a 122k needs a RT front axle and clutch replacement with transmission tear down. It will cost me approximately $3200. The CRV is in great condition and I'm not sure I'm ready to part with it. That said, I'd...

Hey guys I have a 2001 Honda CR-V ex. Recently did a valve adjustment and when I started the car smoke was coming out of the engine dip stick area. I let the car idle for about 30 seconds and more smoke was emitting from there so I just turned it off thinking it would damage any internal...

Hello, new member here from San Francisco. We bought our first CR-V over the labor day weekend, a 2013 LX 2WD Twilight Blue. This replaces a 2008 Toyota Prius in our family. So far we love the CR-V though it feels like a Hum-Vee compared to the Prius. Can you help me find the answer to a...

Anyone in the bay area selling a set of alloy wheels from a gen 2?

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has every experienced this issue. It seems like my car is rattling from the engine as I accelerate. It only happens in 1st or 2nd gear between 2000-2500 RPM. Today, I noticed if I turn off the AC, it doesn't happen so I'm thinking it's related to that. I also...
