#41 of 6459 Brakes Clicking by spartanman2 Jan 04, 2002 (11:46 am)
mikefm58,    I hear you. Last night I noticed the exact same thing happening to my 99 EX automatic, for the first time. You described EXACTLY the same conditions under which it will "click". Any luck finding out the cause?......

I had to have the pads replaced a couple weeks ago, they also turned the rotors. Clicking sound is now gone. You may be able to fix it by simply readjusting and reseating the pads.
#43 of 6459 windshield wipers by carnivalj Jan 05, 2002 (3:50 am)
I can't remember where I read it - here or the CRVIX but someone else reported in the 2002 CRV that they could feel a vibration in the brake pedal when the windshield wipers were on. Well, I felt it too and was wondering if anyone knew what was causing this. I've had many Honda cars and I''ve never experienced this before. I it just that the wiper motor is thisclose to the brake pedal or is this something that should get checked out

I too have felt it and in the past I have seen the post you're referring to although I can't remember where. Must be normal but it is kinda weird.
#45 of 6459 Beware of CR-eVerything! They are Fraudulent!!! details... by cslee6 Jan 10, 2002 (4:43 pm)
I ordered a front tower brace for my 2001 CRV. The company charged my credit card but never sent the order. And it is impossible to get hold of him. Maybe he has caller id and for those he chooses to screw over he doesn't answer the phone. I've left messages, faxed, but still no answer, no confirmation, receipt, or UPS tracking #. The only time I talked to him was the day the charge posted to my account and he said that the order had shipped 'yesterday' and that I would get it in 3 days ground UPS. But it never came. I filed with the Better Busines Bureau and disputed with my credit card company. And according to some people on Hondasuv.com he (Jon Mandel aka Manb) has done this before. So do not do business with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#46 of 6459 CRV Cylinder head/valve problems by bpond Jan 17, 2002 (5:44 am)
I have a 98 with 78K miles. Started with a check engine light with misfire codes. Continued to get worse. Finally diagnosed with poor compression in cyl#4 and dealer is recommending a head replacement. I would prefer to only replace what is necessary, (won't know for sure until head is actually removed). I have set up a case with Honda but I was informed yesterday that they will not participate in the repair costs. I BOUGHT A HONDA SO I WOULD NOT HAVE TO FACE THESE KIND OF REPAIRS AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. My guess is that since the dealer is insisting on a head they must have heard something. I have found other sites where a handfull of owners have had similar symptoms that led to the dealer replacing a head. Any one else have the same problems?   Bob Replies to this message: to4ecrv (Mar 24, 2005 6:24 pm)
#47 of 6459 2001 CRV door noise. by gamesue Jan 31, 2002 (12:07 pm)
I own a 2001 CRV, which has a strange noise coming from the driver's side door. Whenever I stop or take off from a dead stop I get this creaking noise. Has anyone else experienced? this type of problem.
#48 of 6459 CRV Cylinder head/valve problems by mesoman Feb 01, 2002 (3:47 am)
I have a '99 CR-V. After a timing belt replacement at 95K, I noticed that the engine was running a little rough when idling. When cold weather arrived, I had stalling problems. The service dept at the dealer checked out the timing belt job and found all to be OK. They noticed the rough idle, but could not figure it out and returned the V to me. I drove from IL to ID and the Check Engine light came on about halfway there. In the home stretch, the light began to flash, and the engine really struggled to stay alive when idling. I called the local dealer in Pocatello (my new home), and he said "Bring it in...NOW!". They had a very seasoned Honda mechanic on duty. He suspected valves out of adjustment. Cyl #4 had low compression. It turned out be be a burned valve. They pulled the head, replaced a couple of valves (but NOT the head). It now runs like new, but it cost me $880 vs the $1000 they estimated.   Bottom line...the mechanic said I could have avoided this problem if I had the valves adjusted every 30K or so. Costly lesson. The adjustment only cost about $90. The dealership in IL never suspected the valves. Would have been nice to know this before I started on a 1500 mile trip.   My CR-V is at 108K now and going strong. This is the only problem I have ever had. Replies to this message: eforce2 (Feb 07, 2007 5:39 pm)

I hope this will make you fell better. According to my owner's manual, mine is also 99 CRV, for both normal and severe conditions it says, "Inspect valve clearance" at 105K miles or 84 months, "adjust only if noisy". It says nothing about a valve adjustment every 30K miles. If I had to point a finger, I'd say the dealer who did your timing belt messed up.
#50 of 6459 poor gas mileage on 2002 crv ex by gleeson3 Mar 07, 2002 (5:41 pm)
I am getting 20 to 19 mpg instead of the 22-26 i am supposed to be getting. I heard one man who was getting only 14. Does anyone have this problem and what does the shop say they are going to do about the new cars to get better mileage?
