My V's clutch recently started slipping quite badly, it slipped at higher speeds with higher revs but after I went out this weekend and drove a bit far on the highway the slippage is MUCH MUCH worse. It used to be when the turbo kicks, slipping from 2500 rpm- 3500 rpm. Now it's gotten to the...

Hi, I've recently passed my test (I'm in the UK btw) - Since I'm in a band and wanted something with a big boot space for instruments but also wanted a 4x4 for going out into the countryside, pretty much everything I find online keeps pointing back to the CR-V. I'm aware this is a pretty big...

It was going fine one day, next day refused to start, local garage (not a diesel specialist) says no fuel pressure. What possible explanations please? One suggestion is fuel pressure sensor - can you test this? Help - they want lots of money to fix it and I'm not sure that they know what they...

I did something similar on my Lexus and I wanted to see if there are other CR-V owners who have done similar mods to internal lighting? Are there any specific SMD leds that you would recommend / suggest? Ebay are full of these now but what sizes should I be considering for the upgrades? I...

As the title suggests, I would like to upgrade from the horrible yellowish tint headlights to at least daylight 4300k headlamps. I just bought the car and downgraded from a Lexus RX400h but I want to retain as much as I can. So the question is, how do I go about getting this done. Is it a...

Hi I am really pleased with the quality of my CRV. Its a used vehicle with 39,000, diesel, 2.2, I have had the vehicle 3 months but Fon hardly any mileage. The only one issue I have is with the gearbox. It's very notchy. I did not really notice, as its my first CRV and 4 wheel drive. It...

Has anybody run their new CRV CTDI on biofuel ? I have read that VW Skoda and several other manufacturers will incourage the use of biofuels to be used in their new vehicles. Has anybody had experience of whats involved or permisable.

Just wondering what sort of prices people have paid at main dealers for first/second service for a CTDI? cheers

Just wondering how others are finding oil consumption on the 2.2 CTDI. Before buying the car I read that the oil consumption was high. After owning 2 Hondas I wasnt suprised. Ive just needed to put a litre in after 5.5k miles, which has topped it up from just above minimum. How does this compare...
