road noise by natashaque
Feb 23, 2009 (6:24 pm)

I just bought a 2005 CR-V, SE 4WD. It is very noisy. Is there any way to decrease this road noise? Also there is a whistle/whine noise when I step on the gas. It makes this noise without the ac on and starts get nosier at 35 mph. Does anyone know about this whine? It has been discussed on this site before but it does fit the previously mentioned below 50F problem or the ac on problem. This whine just adds to the the other noises. I am sorry I bought this SUV. My Dodge van is quieter and takes bumps much better. If anyone has any advice it would be most appreicated.

To reduce the road noise get new tires. I have goodyear assurance triple treads and they got rid of about 70% of the noise and handle alot better than the bidgestone dullers that came on the CRV.

You can tell whether due to the tires by rotate the 2 rear tires to the front to see any difference.

We've got the assurance triple treads on our 05 Vibe. Noisiest tires I've ever had on a car. We bought the Kumho Solus KR21 for our CR-V. They're extremely quiet, great in snow and ice and cost effective. Check 'em out.

My wife's cr-v is a 2001 front wheel drive ex model. We decided it was time for some maintenance/tune up on the car. Keep in mind I've worked in the repair field years ago and have done a couple frame up restorations on older cars. So replacing plugs, no problem right? Sooo i change the plugs with double platinum plugs. Two days later my wife calls and says the car is stuttering while the brakes are depressed. I change the wires cap and rotor. no improvement. Actually the symptoms get worse. Now the car is vibrating while in park and foot off the brake. I plug in the scanner and of course all I can get is a generic code. Misfire on the #4, #3,and random misfire codes. I then go for the fuel filter (110,000miles). Nothing. I performed vacuum test with a compound meter. The test came back negative for weak vacuum,sticking valves,intake leaks,blown head gasket/low compression. With 17 lbs of pressure all is good . I tested the timing and timing is dead nuts. Checked the fuel injectors for resistance and averaged 14.5 ohms per injector. Tested the injector harness es with a noid light all are receiving a signal. I opted to replace the fuel regulator with no success. So back to the Ignition system I go. Tested the coil and the resistance was off. So I replaced it and, nada. tested the ICM and that seems fine. All though the no codes came up for the charging system I tested the battery and replaced it. When I rev the engine up to 4000rpm and hold it there the check engine light goes out.
 So any suggestions would help here. I just can't understand how adding four new plugs has sent me into this nightmare. Oh yeah I also went back and changed the plugs to the oem style plugs. Thanks ms2112

 
A) If you are in the US or Canada, there were no FWD CR-V EX offered for sale in 2001. Only LX came in FWD with auto only model.
 
B) Use NGK or Denso plugs only.
 
C) Valve lash needs to be adjusted every 30,000 miles, on the loose side.
 
D) Replace tranny, and rear differential fluids with Honda ATF and Honda Dual pump fluids only, preferrably within 30,000 mile intervals.
 
E) Timing belt on that vehicle needs to be replaced at 105,000, I believe. While at it, replace the water pump as well.
 
F) Use Honda Type 2 coolant.
 
I think, this is it.

Different Vibration problem? by mike628
Feb 25, 2009 (6:23 pm)

Hello,
At about 60mph (even sooner lately) my CRV starts to vibrate .The problem is it comes and goes. It seems to be getting worse. But here is the problem: eventually it goes away! If I put on the brakes while its happening ,I can feel the rotors pulsating,but when the CRV is not vibrating, and I put the brakes on,there is no pulsing.I had the differencial fluid changed about 4 months ago for the documented steering noise.
One interesting thing is that I had the tires balanced 3 weeks ago and then went for a 100 mile drive and there was no problem. But within a couple days it was back.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Mike

Sound slike you have 2 issues.
 
1) your brake rotors are warped. you can have them machined, but the warpage will come back.
 
The most common cause warped disk rotors on Hondas is the use of air tools to tighten the wheel bolts. It cases uneven distribution of torque and makes the rotors warp really fast. If you have a shop doing your wheels, ask them to use torque wrenches when installing wheels. Torque sticks are not precise enough. Torque should be set to 80 ft. lbs and applied in criss cross pattern.
 
2) Some of the balancing weights may have come off, or the wheel got bent on one of the trips.

I just had 4 new tires put on and balanced. This weekend I changed the rear differential fluid. Still having the vibration problem. It's not as bad, but it's still there.
