This isn't a CR-V-specific question at all, but I know I'll get good answers here. I live in downtown Quebec City and park on the street all winter. That means my car is constantly buried in snowplow-created snowdrifts full of salt, and is just constantly immersed in salt and slush and water...

Hi, I just bought an CRV 2005 model, and found out it had a lot of rust underneath. I am wondering if I should either return the car, or deman payment for him to cover expanses fixing it. I dont know how bad it is, and how difficult and expensive it is, and if it is worthy. I have som pictures...

Hi everyone, I am a new UK owner as of today, and picked up a mk.2 CR-V 2005 facelift with 118k on the clock and in good mechanical condition. The price was cheap (£1500). However, underneath it is looking a bit sad. The car has been coated with some kind of waxoyl-like substance but it is...

Anyone experience surface rust and corrosion like I do on my 2013 base model rims? Example areas circled in the photo below, but you can see spots all over the rims. How might I get them "cleaned up"? I tried sandpaper on a tiny spot and it scratched the rim instantly... Thoughts? Thank you!

Greetings! My 1998 CRV needs new brakes. The mechanic suggested also replacing the calipers because they look so very rusted. This car is originally from Missouri and no doubt it has a lot of rust from the years. I travel a lot and I have found when I go to mechanics further north, they...

Hey everyone! Hoping I could get some insight on how to fix this problem I discovered yesterday. I made a turn and I had a stream of water pour on my head and on the passengers seat. I opened the sun roof and saw that there was rust on certain parts of the sunroof. Has anyone else experienced...

Hey everyone, When I dropped the muffler to install a hitch on my 03 CR-V I found a bar that is rusted completely through. The rest of the vehicle is completely rust free.. anybody know of a replacement bar or what it's for? Assuming it's for chassis stiffness..

hey guys, i did it. after narrowing down to a CR-V i found one. year 2007. but not sure how to interpret the rust here. probably natural for an old car to have some rust, but i'm just wondering if any experts would see any serious damage from the shots below. i assume the break pads will...

I am in the process of doing a complete paint restoration of my 2008 CRV. While I was clay baring the roof I noticed 2 spots behind the sunroof. each spot is about 1/2" square and under the paint. I live in SC not NY, got to say I am a little upset. So, wondering if anyone else has noticed rust...

Is there anywhere in the UK I can get a preformed panel/patch for a 2001 CRV rear drivers side arch ....any ideas or tips greatly appreciated trying to keep costs low

Guys! I posted a little while ago with questions about buying a car in Mass. I am planning on going this weekend to get it since the Carfax looks amazing on it. now I asked the dealer for pictures and they have me a bit concerned since I do like to work on my own cars. Do these pictures look...

Opened the tailgate today on 2017 CRV and rust caught my eye on lower tailgate pinch welds near latch. Each pinch weld looks somewhat suspicious with potential rust below surface of paint, but has definite rust popping through paint on right and left pinch weld. I am curious if anyone in...

Hi Everyone. So, I've only got a couple thousand miles on my CR-V so far. When I look at some other cars and look at the rotors, many times I'll see a build up of rust. Are our rotors rust resistant? Is there something that I can do to help prevent rust buildup and keep them looking nice? Thanks...

Bought a 2012, really good condition overall, I just noticed some slight rust bubbling under the paint where it creases in the metal between the top of the plastic tailgate trim and the tailgate. I want to get on that before it spreads more but curious if anyone else has had this issue or if...
