How can you have done your oil change at 3000 miles and only have 2800 on her now?
As per your original post
My 2005 CRV does the same thing. I checked the oil level and it was fine. I use synthetic 5w20. I have 2800 miles and 4 months on last oil change. I'm going to stop in my dealership tomorrow and ask service dept about it.
353,000 km / 1.609 =~ 219,390 mi
120,000 km / 1.609 =~ 75,000 mi
279,000km / 1.609 =~ 173,400 mi
("=~" means "approximate")
That's simple -- just drive the CR-V in Reverse most of the time
I guess, he means 2800 miles and 4 months after the last oil change. So, it adds up to (just over 3000 mi) + 2800 mi = just over 5800 mi, unless there were several oil changes.
Thanks.
I ask because I have an appt. at dealer this friday, and would like to know what your dealer said....Thanks
Anybody have any tips on how to repair or cover scratches on an EX wheel. A couple have appeared mysteriously (not from the curb)...
Thanks and regards,

Used to. Now that all gasoline sold has Ethanol in it, acetone does not work. If you have access to no-ethanol gasoline, I have found 70 ml of Acetone to a tankful of gasoline will boost economy by 2-4 mpg in the CR-V.
How do I fix this ??

Do you park on a hill? Do you apply parking brake BEFORE setting transmission into "park?"
Would you be kind enough to give us a step-by-step instruction on how to change the cabin filters? On my 2005 CR-V I removed the glovebox hinges and looked inside. Actually, I don't see anything that even looks like a cabin filter in there.
Clearly I'm not technically inclined, but I would like to learn how to change the filters myself. Your assistance will be appreciated.

Anyway, once you release and lower down the glove box you should see the covering plate, right above a round thing with a label (OK, it's fine for everybody to r.o.f.l. here). There is a plastic latch on its left side of the plate, sticking out to the right of a gray electrical plug and above a black electrical plug (nothing to do with the filter, just using those as a landmarks). Release the latch by pushing it to the right and pulling out. The plate should come off. Now you'd be looking at the black plastic casing of the first filter. It has a little jab on the right, next to another jab for the second filter. Pull it out, comes straight out, but when it's almost out you just might need to jiggle it a bit/pull down, because it reaches the inside of the dash. Set it aside and slide out the second filter, which is going to be in that same hole to the right, holding the little jab mentioned above. Slide to the left and pull out. Now just need to remove and discard the paper part of the filter and put the new one, making sure the "AIR FLOW" arrow points in the right direction (down). Install in the reverse order. Hope this helps. Let us know if it worked.

From the 2003 CR-V OWNER's MANUAL, page 275 Some "smart person" at Honda removed most of the maintenance items from the OWNER's MANUAL.
The lemon law is state dependant, but most are limited to 2 years or 24,000 miles.
Have the dealer change the rear differential fluid, see if that helps the vibration.
P.S. The link doesn't load, was just curious to see it.
They will show an OEM thermostat at 170 and a lot of others at 180. Hope that helps.

Yeah, edmunds is funny about secure links. I see you figured it out, just delete the http:// part up to https://
Honda probably figured that since only 5-10% of the new car owners ever open the manual and only 3-5% actually read it and comprehend, why bother. Saves them on printing costs and paper, and people who really want to know will buy the Helms manual anyway, because it is more comprehensive.

Logical people would think so.
makes a rubbing(like a sandpaper sound) when everytime I
start my car and put in drive(d) and reach around 5-10 mph then the rubbing sound kicks in then it goes away. does your cr-v have the same problem? Anybody have any clues?
Thanks.
Does it mean that '02 Manual has even more info?
Now is the time for anyone still in the warranty period to pick up the extended warranty... it can be ordered so long as you have less than 3 yrs / 36K miles.
I agree... The Duelers are crappy tires... I ditched mine at 30K... But, your local service manager has ZERO ability to do anything about it.. or interest for that matter..
Fortunately, 205/70-15 tires are not that expensive.. You'll be so happy with your new set, in comparison to the Duelers, that you will forget all about the cost...
