Our 2018 Touring has no known oil or heat issues, but have noticed that when fully warmed up (red line pointing at the angle in the gauge), the marker drops like a rock when going through A 3 minute automatic car wash.

As i was going through the car wash (engine running) my SES light went on. I check it with my code reader and it was the oxygen sensor heater bank 1. I tried to erase the code the first time and had a hard time starting car but it did eventually start. I waited a few days to let it dry out and...

This may seem like a dumb question, but … I just bought a 2006 CR-V SE. It has an externally mounted spare tire in the 'hard-shell' case. I've never had an externally mounted spare before. Can I just go through a car wash as is, or does anything have to be removed? Thanks

I went to a gas station and my usual routine was to open my gas cap and do the pay-at-the-pump. It was hot today and for some reason, I cannot pay the pump and decided to go to the station store to pre-pay with the car wash option. Went back a second time to buy a cold drink and headed to the...

I recently bought a 2006 CR-V and was wondering about the radio antenna on the rear roof, whether it's safe to put it through an automatic car-wash. I've always put the antenna down on previous cars before entering the car wash in case the roller brushes catch the antenna but this car has a...

I bought this CRV yesterday and promptly took it to the detail shop. They cleaned it wonderfully, but now the MIL is on, and flashes. The engine is sputtering like crazy. Also of note, when I turn on the car, it starts fine, but after about 20 seconds it starts shuddering and shaking, calms...

I just bought a 1997 CRV with a cloth interior and lucky for me the prior owner was a smoker :(. I've spent about 30 minutes cleaning the driver's armrest and dirt/smoke keeps on coming up no matter how much I clean it. I saw that all the seat covers were removal so I was wondering if they...

Does anyone know what the exterior of 2011 Honda CR-V is treated with? 1. I am trying to figure out if the Simoniz treatment that the car dealership is offering is worth getting or not. It is suppose to be some kind of polyurethane treatment to make it more scratch and dent resistant. 2. For a...
