Hello!
first time poster here;
I bought my 2014 CRV in august of 2019 forms a used car dealership in Halifax, NS. In February 2021, the engine light came on as well as the tpms light, the steering light, and the traction control light and it wouldn’t start. Took it to Napa, where they replaced the battery and said it drove fine and sent me home. Not even 24 hours later the light was back on and it was not driving fine, started hard and had a vibration while idling. We had a mechanic friend look at it and the spark plug in cylinder 3 was bad (code read misfire in cylinder 3) so we changed all 4. Didn’t fix it. Took it to a mechanic shop near me, they looked at it and replaced the ignition coil in cylinder 3, did an oil change and sent me on my way. “Drives fine” again.
again not even 24 hours later all lights back on,vibration still with idling and hard start. Took it back to the same mechanic and he ran pressure tests on it, put cameraa down in the cylinders and it showed no issues. The code read misfire in 2 and 3 this time. He changed all the cool packs around and said the car wasn’t showing anymore issues for him. I took it home. 7 hours later same issues, lights on again. Except now I have no heat, and the temperature is reading high but the coolant is fine and not overheating.
by this time I’m pretty frustrated, so we did some Googling and checked out air filters, which were extremely dirty and well over due for a change, so we changed them hoping maybe that would solve it.
nope.
if anyone has any suggestions SOS.
