My MM shows it's time for a brake flush.
Maybe I missed it but I didn't see any Gen 5 brake flush videos or threads and there isn't much info in the owner's manual other than potential brake system corrosion if non-Honda heavy duty brake fluid is used. Darn, I was hoping for a fishy video...
Assuming previous CRV generation brake flushes are a similar procedure:

Assuming previous CRV generation brake flushes are a similar procedure:
- use only Dot 3 or Dot 4
- use a 1/4" inside diameter hose inserted in a plastic or glass collection bottle
- suction out old brake fluid from the brake reservoir
- top off brake fluid reservoir with new fluid
- start flush at the front left wheel
- continue topping off reservoir and flushing in a clock-wise direction around the vehicle (front rt, back rt, back lt).
- top off brake fluid reservoir.
