Now with the oil filter problems i am reconsidering getting a CR-V. Does anyone know if this problem has been fixed in the 05's or if the 05's have the same engine compartment design?
 
i guess i will have to wait in either case...
 
wait till november and wait to see what comes of this fire thing...
 
yuck...i finally decided what i wanted and then this
 
thanks,
psyched

Psyched, I am a 21-year-old recent college graduate who just bought a 2004 CR-V EX a little over a week ago. My parents are still very involved in my life as well. My dad lives in the Washington, D.C. area where the engine fire story "first broke" in the Washington Post. He called my mom to ask her what kind of car I had just bought... sure enough, she confirmed that it was the CR-V. They are concerned, but know that I will be careful after the first oil change and will take it to the dealer, who I am assuming will be extra cautious with the oil changes because of this press.
 
I would doubt that you will see any major design changes in the 2005s, despite this bad press... seems to me that it is already a little bit too late! If they were to add some sort of shield to prevent oil from spilling onto the exhaust in the 2005s, they would have to recall all 2003s and 2004s to add the shield on them as well. So I wouldn't wait around for the 2005 and assume that Honda will fix the problem on the 2005 models... especially since Honda has not taken the blame for the problem.
 
I'm a little nervous about my first oil change, but I love the car anyway.

the chances of a fire are very remote especially now after all of the bad press.
 
All it takes is normal caution when installing the oil filter and the dealers are WELL aware if this!
 
Craig...who is taking his wife's 2003 in today for it's second oil change...no worries whatever!

CR-V LX offer by eastbay

Was offered a CR-V LX auto, without side air bags at $18,500 includes dest. charges. No other dealer fees charged(!) Also included in this price is keyless entry, muguards, pinstriping. TTL not included. Any thoughts? I've been doing the rounds of other local Honda dealers, and not much interest in selling basic LX's for anything under 19K.

Took the bait and bought LX FWD in SC--18.5K everything except TTL, with installed keyless, cargo liner, mudguards, pinstriping. Might have gotten it for a bit less had I waited, but I didn't and have no regrets. Chianti red!
