#5963 of 6449 Re: 2004 CRV Coolant and Tranny Fluid Change Input Needed [tomk17] by tcturner Sep 17, 2008 (7:35 am)
Replying to: tomk17 (Sep 15, 2008 7:26 am) I dont know what the dealers procedure is but my understanding is that the tranny holds about 9 qts and if you drain and fill all you change is 4 qts.So by doing it once and driving a little and again draining driving a little and again draining you eventually end up with close to clean fluid. Sounds like a lot of work but I am only the messenger please dont shoot. Replies to this message: tomk17 (Sep 17, 2008 12:12 pm)

Replying to: tcturner (Sep 17, 2008 7:35 am) Thanks - that about what I thought. I'll be doing it the tranny fluid this weekend. FYI my 2004 EX with 4WD holds a total capacity of of 7.6 Qts so I agree, 1 change (manual says 3.3 Qts for a change) gets a 50% fluid turnover, another change after a short drive-around will net about 75% new fluid.

Replying to: drsanjay61 (Aug 30, 2008 6:11 pm) in these tough economic times i have been crushed by events my car window rt was smashed and gps stolen my deductible is 500 $ i payed 550 $ to above for repair 15 days later today at 7 pm the window fell down the honda guys dont have a policy to serve they will sell cars after 7 pm but they stop attending pains like me after 6 pm i am so sorry i brought a world class car from route 22 honda they are not interested i ask one question where should i park my car tonight if it is stolen will they help no they wont even as i write this they are selling labor day happy weekend honda u sure ruined mine god bless america god bless honda route 22 new jersey sanjay   Sorry to hear about your misfortunes. But here are a few questions to ponder:   A) Why leave GPS in plain view?   B) Why pay $500 deductible when the side glass replacement is about $100?   C) If you live in a questionable area, consider moving, or paying for a parking garage.   D) Get a plastic bag, tape it to the frame and wait until the shop opens. Alternatively, remove the door skin and prop up the window. Takes 10 minutes. Replies to this message: plim77 (Sep 18, 2008 11:40 am)

They have different hours, different cost centers, different employees, etc. Just because sales staff are working does not mean service staff are working; so I wouldn't compare the two. I recommend going to an auto body shop that has hours that are more accomodating than your Honda dealership.
#5967 of 6449 When to replace Air and Cabin Filter by dmathew347 Sep 19, 2008 (9:07 am)
Hi, I have a 2007 CRV with 20,000 miles, and wanted to know when is the right time to replace the air and cabin filters (none have been replaced so far). The manual mentions about a maintenance minder symbol that comes on, but i am not sure if they are for both the air filter and cabin filter, or just one of them.   Does a maintenance minder really come on when its time to replace them, or should i just replace them every xxx miles.   Thanks Replies to this message: yankeefan2 (Sep 19, 2008 10:18 am) dmathew347 (Sep 19, 2008 2:40 pm) Mr_Shiftright (Sep 19, 2008 4:07 pm)

Replying to: dmathew347 (Sep 19, 2008 9:07 am) Your manual says to change the Cabin filter and Air filter every 15,000 miles. I change both of mine every spring even if I don't have 15,000 miles on my CRV. Yes, your minder does tell you when the #2 shows up on your Maintenance Minder code.   Pollen filter $15.95 & Engine Filter $20.49 + $7.87 Ground shipping $43.81 total   They are cheep enough buying on Line.

Replying to: yankeefan2 (Sep 19, 2008 10:18 am) At the risk of sounding cheap, can you just take these two filters out and "wash" them in soap water or something like that. I looked at my 2 filters today, and after close visual inspection, there's some gook and clutter, but they seemed like i could just wash or blow dry them away.   Would this damage the filters?

Replying to: jfigueroa1 (Sep 14, 2008 2:14 pm) "I recently replaced the battery on my CRV 02, now I cant find the stupid code to enable to radio is there in hope out there? How can I get tho codes? "   It should have been in the owner's manual rear cover. The dealer can recover the code, but they have to pull the radio, IIRC.
