#5 of 25 Re: 07 CRV Rear Main Seal Leak [norm27] by crvowner3 Jan 20, 2007 (3:13 pm)
Replying to: norm27 (Jan 06, 2007 7:05 pm) I got my 2007 CRV on 12/21/06, by first week of Jan 1st I notice the first leak. I had under 300 miles on it, I was on the first tank of gas. Took it in to selling dealer. They said it was dry as they got closer to the suspect rear main seal. They cleaned up the motor and sent me home with instructions to call back if problem continued. Also I have had it in for a TPMS ( tire pressure monitoring system) light that stayed on. They adjusted the tire pressure and turned off the warning light. It's back on. I have newspaper under the car to soak up the ever growing oil leak and I have an appointment on 1/23/07 to get it looked at. Wish me luck or a knowledgeable service department!

Replying to: crvowner3 (Jan 20, 2007 3:13 pm) They fixed my leak and said this was the cause, the rear main seal seal is pressed into the rear of the engine,the inner circle of the seal is where the crankshaft goes through the seal (this is the sealing portion of the seal).it appeared when the engine was assemblied gasket adhesive used on the oilpan had got onto the crankshaft where it contacts the seal,thus the leak hope this explains it ok,if not e-mail me back or call me Replies to this message: brianjandreau (Jan 21, 2007 5:07 pm)

Replying to: norm27 (Jan 20, 2007 4:18 pm) I'm picking up my CRV this week. Is there anything I can / should do before driving it off the lot to make sure the CRV I get doesn't have this problem (or any other one)?

Replying to: norm27 (Jan 06, 2007 7:05 pm) I got my 07 CRV in again ( second time), the oil pan gasket was replaced. It is still leaking when driven. I have an open appt. for another try to fix it. I have great confidence in my repair department. They are working with me on the problem, but a new car should not have an oil leak!

I got my car in for the third time. They went all the way in and replaced the rear main seal. It stopped the leak so far. Now I need to check out the differential problem that is popping up big time in some CRVs. Lots of input on that problem right here in this forum.
#10 of 25 CR-V EX-L With Navi : Oil Leak by sanjub Mar 01, 2007 (5:22 pm)
I bought 2007 Honda CRV on 24th Dec, 2006, found oil leak within 1000 miles. Took it to the nearest dealer, with two attempts of oil pan gasket replacement - issue still remains the same. Finally, two days back, took it to the dealer where I bought the car, they are suspecting problem with main seal leakage. I'm waiting to hear from them now.

Replying to: sanjub (Mar 01, 2007 5:22 pm) I bought 2007 Honda CR-V EX-L w/NAVI on 27the Dec. 2006. Noticed oil on floor in garage yesterday, only 1240 miles on car. Took car to Honda dealer, they said it appears to be leaking between the engine and transmission. Couldn't get appointment until next week.

Does anyone have an assessment yet to the extend of this leak & how many vehicles may be affected? Anyone know thru VIN #s which vehicles are suspect? I also have an early 2007 CRV EX-L (P/D date Nov./2006) have approx 2000 miles on car & up to this point no leak!. I check underneath as well as driveway daily. Thank's in advance.
#13 of 25 07 CRV Oil Leak by ebaines Mar 30, 2007 (9:13 am)
I just picked up my CRV and drove it home from another city. In the morning, I found some oil spots in my driveway. The CRV is now sitting at the dealer waiting to be checked. It only has 200 KM or 124 Miles.   I thought Honda was one of the best. I guess not.

Replying to: ebaines (Mar 30, 2007 9:13 am) Just got the bad news. It's the rear main seal! Seems like this should be a recall.
