valves

I have a 2009 CRV with 95K miles--- 2 questions--- 1--When should the valves be adjusted? 2--I just had a new battery put in---the technician did not hook up the auxiliary power unit up correctly (which is supposed to save all the radio settings)--- so I lost all my radio settings. Now the...

Hello! To make a long story short, my 2006 CRV with 163k miles is giving me trouble. Went out yesterday, as I was pulling into a parking space, the car stalled. Tried to start car, and it turns over, and catches as if it's starting, but doesn't start. Battery is fine. My initial thought was...

Long story short. All exhaust valves got bent while cranking after timing chain stretched too much. I just got the head back with all new valves. It starts fine and runs, but with the rough idle and miss on #1. Good spark, injector is good, compression matched the other cylinders. It's only...

I have the opportunity to buy a 01 CRV with 190K miles from a friend. Real clean car. I had a 2000 CRV that had the valves go south at about 200K so I'm a little hesitant about getting it. I haven't driven it yet or seen if the CEL is on. Do the 01s have a similar valve problem? I dont think my...

hi, new to the forum and also crv ownership,.just bought an 01 5 speed with 180k for $1900. its been somewhat neglected so im doing a bunch of rutene majntanance for the mielage. timing belt, water pump, valve adjustment, thermostat, plugs / wires / cap / rotor, oil change, rear diff fluid...

I bought this car about a month ago and had the top end rebuilt due to burnt valve. Has around 13000 on the clock since this was done. The car ran perfectly fine getting nearly 30 mpg. Decided to check the valves today and glad I did. Overall, the mechanic that did the work did a pretty good...

How often do you change them? How do you know if you need valve adjustment? I've never done a valve adjustment but the car runs fine.

97-valves rattled a few days then engine died and wont start. adjusted valves (which were not far out). has fuel from the pump and spark to the wires. just won't hit. where to start diagnosis?

Hello, I recently adjusted my valves and had trouble getting the 10mm wrench on some of the front (intake) valve nuts. So I used a socket to tighten some of them down and check the screw head slot to make sure it did not move. I also turn the crank shaft through the whole procedure again and...

Good morning everyone, This is my first post on here so please let me know if I am asking this in the wrong section. I just picked up my CRV with 130,000. I decided to check the valves partly because they are noisy and partly because it is suppose to be done at 100K. I did the job and...

i have a 1999 crv with 181k and i like it a lot but im getting a low idle around 400 so i replaced the iacv and that did not fix the problem. checked the throttle cable and its where it should be. also checked the timing and its spot on where it should be. also when im driving the rpm's will...

Hey Guys, Thanks for looking! so you all suggested on my last thread about the compression test i performed for my 99 crv, to get my valves adjusted cause i have 170k miles and it was never done yet -_-. and it was said it should solve some compression issues. Truth be told it solved many...

I just got an 07 CRV and it's making a soft whirring noise after 2000rpms. Sounds like it could be valves, but I saw some people say it could be a power steering noise. The sound goes away at idle, but becomes prominent under load and in higher rpms. The car has new 5W-20 Mobil 1 oil and new...

What type feeler's gauge (and where can I get one) does it require to adjust valves after head is redone? The shop where my 1999 CRV is being repaired said they need a special feeler's gauge and can't readily find one. Thanks in advance for responding.

i have a 2000 crv 151,000 miles it has P1399 code i just adjusted the valves and it had three that very only slighty tight the specs for exhaust valve lash is .008 the three valves in found that were tight were like .005 when it is hot outside and the AC is on it stumbles when you first presss...

My daughter just lost the timing belt on her 99 CRV. She was at idle when it happened. What are the chances of bent valves? She is trying to decide if she should go ahead with the repair. $450 for a new belt and test by hand rotating. $500 more if no bent valves to handle water pump,idler...

I was inquiring about the price for new Michellin tires at Costco and I was told that OEM tpms valves stem have to be replace. The valves is solid stem. Could they mean the washer only?

so last week the inevitable happened... skipped timing and bent my valves... now after looking threw the records I noticed that the valves where never done once! not even when the timing belt was done at 85xxx (all this was done before i owned) its at 175xxx now... well since I dont want to put...

I have 207K miles on my '02 CR-V EX. It was idling rough and getting multiple P030x codes, so I replaced the plugs with NGK IZFR6K11 (2nd replacement - first @ 115K). I found one of the plugs (#3) was a bit loose and the plug, coil & tube were all fouled - so I ordered a replacement Denso (OE)...

I'm a bit worried after reading all the posts regarding tight valves / burnt valves, needing new heads on the Gen 1 Vs. I've got an 01 with 180k miles, second owner, not sure if valves were adjusted. Experiencing the rough idle / CEL issue. Took to dealership service and showed them the...
