Replying to: blueiedgod (May 09, 2007 7:57 am) Thanks for the info blueiedgod.   Anyone know where I can find brochures for old European CR-Vs? Thought I found some the other day but don't understand Japanese!   Cheers A Replies to this message: stevecar (May 09, 2007 9:07 am)

#52 of 59 Stalling CRV by baileysmom1 Oct 03, 2007 (2:56 pm)
My 1999 Honda CRV stalls intermittently. I can limp along for awhile by playing with the gas and brake then it is fine. I had the fuel filter replaced but it didn't solve the problem. Any ideas what could be wrong? Thanks! Replies to this message: blueiedgod (Oct 04, 2007 7:54 am) varmint (Oct 05, 2007 9:32 am)

Replying to: baileysmom1 (Oct 03, 2007 2:56 pm) My 1999 Honda CRV stalls intermittently. I can limp along for awhile by playing with the gas and brake then it is fine. I had the fuel filter replaced but it didn't solve the problem. Any ideas what could be wrong? Thanks!   Information about mileage should help. But, the valves on that engine need to be adjusted every 30,000 miles. If they have not been adjusted, they get tighter and push the valve seats into the soft aluminum head and the valves start to burn. Once the valves are burnt, you get stalling issues. The cost to replace the head on this engine is about $3000 from Honda.   But, you may be in luck. If you have the Owner's manual and is says that valves don't need to be adjusted until 105,000 miles and you are under that mileage, you may have a leg to stand on to have Honda to foot the bill.   1) Check the owner's manual for valve adjustment intervlas. 2) If it says 105,000 miles or 90,000 miles and you are under that mileage. Take it to the dealer. 3) Have the dealer do diagnosis, usually $80. 4) When they tell you that the valves are burnt and you need a new head, call Honda corporate (the number is in the manual) 5) They will open a case, and depending on how nice you are and how many Hondas you have owned in the past, they may cover it 100% or have you pay for labor.   Good luck.   P.S. Register with Honda Owner's link (on Hondas main website), enter you VIN number to see if the ignition swtich recall has been done.

my 1998 CR-V (mileage 85,000 miles) vibrates continuously when I stopped at traffic light. It vibrates even more in "P" than in "D". Can anyone help me with this problem??? Replies to this message: dtstof (Dec 22, 2007 9:56 pm)

Replying to: faz3168 (Dec 22, 2007 5:49 am) Perhaps you've got a bad engine mount.
#57 of 59 Re: 2000 CRV with Transmission Trouble [drive62] by amcanoe Feb 15, 2008 (3:56 am)
Replying to: drive62 (Sep 28, 2006 6:57 am) You are not the only person experiencing transmission problems. The original transmission lasted 52,000 miles (replaced under warranty) the second lasted 68,000 miles and I had to eat the third one at a cost of $1600.00, rebuilt. I have a 2001 model but it is the same transmission.

Replying to: lisan (Sep 12, 2006 4:14 pm) have an 01 with 74k - you would think it is a brand new car. these are 200 to 300k cars. IF MAINTAINED CORRECTLY. its not a question of the milage but was it taken care of? if so 123k is nothing to a honda - an american car NEVER- but a honda, no problem. change the timing belt get new belts, hoses, fulids ect - should be OK - again "IF IT WAS MAINTAINED" steveg
