Honda CR-V 3

Honda's third-generation compact crossover SRV entered the market in 2007. In 2010, the Honda CR-V went through a restyling.

Engines

The car was aggregated with petrol atmospheric "fours" working volume of 2.0 liters (R20A / 150 hp) and 2.4 liters (K24Z4 / 166 hp). For European SRVs, a diesel 2. 2 CDTi (140 hp) was also offered. In Russia, Honda SRV with turbodiesel is very rare. Gasoline engines have a chain drive valve timing. Some Honda CR-V 2007-2009 release with an engine of 2.4 liters with a mileage of more than 60-90 thousand km required replacement of the extended chain. We were lucky owners who paid attention to changes in the sound of the engine and a decrease in thrust. They managed to get by with little blood. Less attentive paid by jumping the chain for several teeth and meeting the valves with pistons. To restore the engine outside the dealer service, it took about 30,000 rubles for spare parts and 12-13 thousand rubles for work. Another unpleasant ailment in cars from 2. 4 2007-2008 year of release - painting the cams of the exhaust camshaft. The defect was detected when opening the lid for adjusting valves at a run of 120-240 thousand km. The cost of a new camshaft 30 000 rubles. It is worth noting that there are examples that have passed over 300,000 km without this defect. 2-liter unit has an incurable specific feature - an increase in vibration when the climate control is turned on. Also, on these engines there was a factory defect - a violation of technology when pressing the guide valve of the third cylinder. In its total mass, gasoline engines are quite reliable and do not cause any trouble. Motors are easy to start in the cold and have a moderate appetite.

Transmission

Good reliability show and gearboxes. 2-liter engine can be equipped with a 6-speed "mechanics". Owners of such machines note an extraneous sound / knock when turning on the 1st and 2nd gear. These manifestations do not signal a malfunction of the box. In any case, the box continues to function without symptoms of deterioration of "well-being".

The five-speed automatic transmission according to the maintenance regulations requires the replacement of oil with a change of the remote filter every 45,000 km. Apparently, this is the secret of the “indestructibility” of the mechanical part of the box. But there are weaknesses. This is a position sensor for the gear selector (25,000 rubles) and a pressure sensor for the friction of the second gear (2,500 rubles). Failure to meet on cars older than 4-5 years.

There are no serious problems with the all-wheel drive system. Except that with large runs, sometimes you have to change the crosses of the driveshaft.

Walking

After 40-60 thousand km, the anthers of the front shock absorber were often wiped. The cost of an anther is about 500 rubles. Shock absorbers will last more than 100-150 thousand km. The original depreciation rack costs about 10 000 rubles, analogue - from 2 000 rubles. On crossovers with standard xenon light, it is difficult to choose an analogue instead of a rear shock absorber because of the design features. There is a mount on the rack for the clearance sensor.

For 3-4 years of operation of Honda SRV noticeably sags the rear springs. In most cases, dealers replaced them as part of the warranty. Honda supplied new reinforced springs. The cost of one spring is about 3-4 thousand rubles.

After 100-150 thousand km when adjusting the geometry of the wheels, it often turns out that the collapse of the rear wheels outside the tolerance is the wheel “house”. The problem is solved by installing the upper rear adjustable lever.

After 150-200 thousand km, the silent blocks of the front and rear levers are handed over. The first to come into disrepair are the rear silent blocks of the front levers. The cost of front levers from 3000 rubles, rear - from 1000 rubles. Silent blocks (from 500 rubles) can be replaced separately.

The steering rack can knock after 80-120 thousand km. The reason is the wear of the right sleeve. Diagnosed when twitching for right steering traction. The new rake costs about 60 tr, "beushnya" - about 20 thousand rubles. You can get rid of knocking by replacing the right sleeve with an analogue made on a lathe made of caprolone. Repair of the reiki will pull 12-15 thousand rubles.

After 80-120 thousand km, it is possible to acidify the guide calipers. The remake will cost 2.5-3.5 thousand rubles.

Bodywork

On the 2007-2008 edition of the case, there are problems with the paint coating of the trunk door - small foci of corrosion appear. Dealers painted the door under warranty. Often, scuffles are found on the back door seal, or from under the chrome lining above the registration sign, a rubber lining falls out. After 4-5 years of operation, the reflectors darken and the glass of the front headlights yellow. The cost of the original block headlights is about 35 000 rubles, analogue - about 10 000 rubles. The standard xenon nurses 100-150 thousand km. The original lamp will cost 5-6 thousand rubles, the analogue - about 1.5-2 thousand rubles. Many complain of the unaesthetic “shaking” of the passing beam light spot. The contact lights are an officially recognized disadvantage of the Honda CR-V. If there are problems with the glass washer (liquid is supplied through 4-6 strokes), then it is necessary to replace the return valve of the nozzle. The cost of the valve is about 700 rubles. In cars for the American market, there are sometimes malfunctions in the operation of the central lock. The defect is eliminated by replacing the actuator, which can be purchased in a well-known Chinese online store for 2,500 rubles. After 4-5 years, the regular parking radar sensors begin to fail. On the surface of the sensor, the coating is inflated, and “oxides” are formed. You can bring it back to life by cleaning and painting the surface again. Sometimes the reason for the "glitch" of the sensors in poor contact of the plug. In this case, the processing of the connection of contacts with conductive lubricant will help. "Officers" ask about 5-6 thousand rubles for a new sensor.

Interior

Plastic salon Honda SPV 3 eventually begins to creak. Most often, “crackles” come to life with the arrival of frosts. Often, unpleasant sounds appear in the back of the car. One of the reasons is the creaking of body iron from the right rear of the car. To eliminate it, it is necessary to remove the plastic skin of the trunk and treat the right part of the metal base of the body with a composition similar to WD-40, and in some places even “work” with a hammer.

Many complain of rattling the head restraint of the front passenger seat. Restyling versions distinguished by the back of the driver's seat. Sometimes the source of extraneous sounds in the cabin when passing irregularities are door locks and external linings of door handles.

The skin on the steering wheel and gear pick is wiped to 150-200 thousand km. On cars with manual transmission over time, creaking appears when pressing the clutch pedal. The source is the suspension sleeve. Its replacement will help for a short time, a more effective way - periodic processing of the sleeve with a composition based on silicone.

Equipment

When running more than 60-100 thousand km, the air conditioning may stop turning on. There are several reasons. The first, burnt out compressor relay. The original costs about 700-800 rubles. The standard relay can be replaced by four contact relays from Kalina/Priora for 60 rubles. Another reason is the increase in the gap between the pulley and the clutch of the air conditioner compressor and the inability to "attract". The problem is solved by grinding the adjusting washer to reduce the gap between the pulley and the clutch. Another reason for not turning on the air conditioner is the failure of the electromagnetic clutch. Official services for the clutch together with the replacement ask about 12-18 thousand rubles. On unofficial services will require about 6-9 thousand rubles.

Individual owners face periodic tanning of the SRS malfunction indicator. The disease is characteristic of cars of the first years of production. It's all about the SRS block. The new block is available for 30,000 rubles, and boo - for 10,000 rubles. A number of cars of the first years of production came under recall to replace the gas generator airbag driver and front passenger.

After 100-200 thousand km, the voltage regulator or the generator diode bridge may fail. Both parts cost over 1,000 rubles. Sometimes the starter fails, but sometimes it is enough to replace the starter relay (from 800 rubles).

VIN

The VIN number is located in the engine compartment (in the center of the partition) and behind the windshield.

Items 1-3 are the country of manufacture, assembly (SHS – UK, JHL – Japan, MRH – Thailand).

Positions 4-6 – body, engine and drive type (RE5 – CR-V 2.0 4WD, RE3 – CR-V 2.4 2WD, RE4 – CR-V 2.4 4WD, RE6 – CR-V diesel).
