2005 CRV RATTLES by weavie1968
Feb 11, 2006 (10:04 pm)

HELP! Lately there has been rattling coming from the cargo area of my CRV. As I'm driving, it's really hard to tell where it's coming from, but it sounded like it was from the jack compartment. I've pulled over and took it all out. As I drove again the same rattle was there so it wasn't the jack. I ended up having a friend drive my car while I crawled into the back cargo area to listen for it as we were driving. I narrowed it down to the right rear passenger seatbelt. It's actually inside the wall of the car but when I tug on the seatbelt or even move it, I can hear the rattle. I think it's the seatbelt pully assembly or something. Has anyone else had any problems like that? I would go to the dealer, but you know how that goes...."we can't duplicate the problem".

2005 CRV RATTLES (part II) by weavie1968

Two more issues I'm having. My CRV pulls to the right when I accelerate, and my brakes keep squeaking when I come to a stop. My car only has 13,000 miles on it and they replaced the front brake pads once already. They said it was a factory defect because the brake pads, upon inspection, were cracked. They were replaced, but I assured them it wasn't the way I drive because I drive like an old man and I'm only in my 30's! Anyone else have these same problems? Can they be resolved/fixed? I've been tempted to trade it in for another 2005, but I know the dealer won't do that...or will they? (ha).

Location of air conditioner drain in CRV by danincanberra
Feb 11, 2006 (11:08 pm)

Hi,
 
This is my first post here, so I hope I am in the right place
 
I have a 2005 CRV and was told it had a problem with the air conditioner draining last time I had it tuned up (since I could smell a sour odour from the air vents I had them check it). Anyway, they cleaned it out for me, but now it smells a little again, and I wanted to try and clean the darin pan and hose myself if it is easy to get to.
 
Can anyone please let me know where to look on the CRV. I've obviously looked for the location of the 'water drip' under the engine after the a/c has been on, but can't see one since the drain seems to be clogged. I am also wondering if access to the drain plate is freally rom inside the cab (under the dash) and the drain pipe simple goes through the firewall to the engine compartment
 
Thanks for you help
 
Dan

Honda alarm system with auto-start
 
Honda doesn't make an alarm system with remote starter, at least not in the US.
 
From your description it sure sounds like the remote starter components are the problem. I'd have it replaced or removed.

Thank you for the info. At this point I appreciate any kind of advice or troubleshooting. It's very discouraging to have a perfectly good car that doesn't want to run.
  
We attached a wire from the starter directly to the battery and "hot-wired" the car to get it started. It is being played with at a mechanics today and I'll keep you posted on what the culprit is.
 
The alarm system was installed by Honda in Canada. I think it's a sherlock system, but I'd have to double-check.

I don't blame your wife for feeling that way. My car never turend off while driving, just after sitting in the driveway overnight - it now wants nothing to do with starting. The mechanic was talking about possibly being the clutch relay switch or starter; but I think in the end it has something to do with this alarm/cut-off/auto-start system.
 
My advice would be to keep pushing on solving this problem - the car is trying to tell you something.

I beg to differ with you on this subject. I would like to clarify that the pulling to the right is so bad that I can actually chnge lanes without touching the wheel. Would you call that a "normal" drift of the vehicle. I don't believe so!!

I don't believe this problem is being overblown. I purchased a 2006 CRV in October and within a week of purchase, it was back at the dealership being looked at for this problem. Since then, it has been to two different dealership a combined four times and I also was working with a district manager from Honda. Do you think that this is being overblown now? I would be ashamed to say I worked for Honda after hearing something like this about your product. Also, I can't believe you would have the audacity to make a comment about lifting weights.

Brake Corrosion by fussycrvowner
Feb 15, 2006 (7:27 am)
Reply
Hello: I have an '02 CRV EX which has brake corrosion issues. Every 12,000 miles I am ending up removing the brake pads and cleaning the mounting surfaces. If I don't, the brake pads drag against the drums and overheat. The dealer took care of at 12,000 miles and since I do myself. I even put the disk brake grease on the mounting areas as specified. Does anyone know of a more "permanent" fix for this? I am considering replacing the calipers since the corrosion has gotten into the piston areas. CRV currently has 29,000 miles on it.
