Getting my 2017 CRV EX this week. Pretty excited. Great review. Lots of helpful tips.
Just. purchased a 2018 CR-V EXL w/navigation in Lunar Silver. Love this ride... very impressive!
Thats awesome! Thanks for watching!
Have you had the Dilution issue with your Crv?
The rear lights do turn on when the door open and turn off when the door closed. I have a 2018 CR-V LX. Love it 💯
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
Nice job MoNo K. I got to that part of the video and was about to write the same thing. Then I saw your post and thought, "good job."
MoNo K how do you like/dislike the car overall? I’m tying to find review videos from people that have the 2018 Honda LX. I’m looking at the exact one you have. But I’m coming from a Honda EX so I had sunroof, heated leather seats, power seats etc.
I'm not feeling the inside looks like a minivan the outside However finally start looking better. But all and all it's a Honda you can't go wrong
Great review - NIce video!
We have a 2018 its shows a pic of a car frame Not sure what it does
Did you know you can program the parking brake to apply automatically every time you shut the car off?
I think I saw that in the setup menu! Pretty neat, but probably won't use it. Thanks for watching!
crazyjdkid Yeah Same
How is it after these about 2 years of usage? No oil dilution issues appeared? Drives well, reliable? Is the drive itself smooth? Does the car feel snappy enough?
Thanks a lot for answering.
No oil dilution issues at all. I will say that we are in an extreme heat environment rather than a cold one, so we aren't too concerned about dilution. Drives great, reliable as any other Honda we have owned. I would say the weakness is its "snappiness". Off the line it is a bit slow, especially with eco mode on. If your going at highway speed it doesn't have issues passing and things like that.
@@crazyjdkid That's great to hear. Thanks a lot for your reply, I appreciate it.
this vs an electric car? what would you prefer
If the electric car was a Tesla, I would prefer the electric car. Otherwise I am good with this one!
crazyjdkid yeah, Tesla’s r hella expensive
do u have issues when it comes to heating up the car during winter.it takes a long time for it to warm up the car and also the vibration while in drive. i have read a lot of complaints about this.how is your CRV so far?
Our CRV is good thus far! Its still very new, just hitting 1000 miles not too long ago. No complaints on vibration or anything like that. It only gets down into the 30s here so heating isn't too difficult. Something to remember with small very efficient engines, like the 1.5L Turbo, is that they are tiny! So they produce very little heat because they are so efficient, and its not just Honda. Instead of letting it idle to warm up, just start driving and that should help the situation. Also check to make sure your front grille shutters are working properly! Thanks for watching!
The vibration issues while in idle was with the previous CR-Vs.
Cannot find the ex-l model here. We are offered ex, lx, xle, touring.
It is probably named differently in your country. Most likely it is the xle in your country! Thanks for watching!
Any issues with the engine regarding oil dilution? Planning to get this one as well.
I have not had any issues with oil dilution with mine. And it has about 8k on it and had its first oil change done at 7k. It's starting to get colder here so it might develop, who knows. Honda usually does a fairly good job on keeping up with recalls and I expect this issue to be resolved soon. If the problem does develop I will report back to you! Thanks for watching!
@@crazyjdkid thank you very much! Hope honda will really fix whatever the issue is specially to those that are affected with the issue.
Any issues with gas mixing with the engine oil? I heard complaints about this when I was about to buy one.
I haven't had any issues, but I haven't had to change to oil yet either. This engine is a pretty proven engine, so it shouldn't have any reliability issues!
can you update us after your first oil change? Interested to know about this issue too
I certainly can! I have looked at a few forums about the issue and does seem a bit concerning. It seems as though it happens most in cold climates, and I happen to live in an extremely hot climate. I am almost at 5k I believe, and the maintenance minder hasn't said to change it yet but I know I am approaching the time. But I will post a video when I do change it, so be sure to check back or subscribe to know when I post it! Thanks for watching!
@@ewanl9065 I just wanted to let you guys know that we did do our first oil change, which was at 7,200 miles when the maintenance minder said 15%. There wasn't any signs of gas in the oil and the dipstick read the correct amount. Reading the news recently I do believe Honda is going to either recall or suggest a fix sometime in November. These issues mainly stem from areas with cold climates. Its just starting to get cold here so maybe the issue will develop in this CRV. Time will tell!
Just curious: what brand all-weather mats are inside?
Sure! They are made by Goodyear, and I got them at Costco! Thanks for watching!
My parents are getting that car!
Cool! Thanks for watching!
Did you get rid of the Mazda 6?
Nope, still have it! We have an Honda Odyssey and this is replace it.
Cuánto cuesta dime el precio
its a nice little car.. :)
Thanks! It's pretty fancy.
ur welcome :)
Great video ! Nice channel ! 5ubscribed
Thanks!
Good review. Shame it's not 4x4. I'll stick to my landrover v8,
Thanks! We have other vehicles that are 4x4, so we went more of the efficiency route with this one. It doesn't snow where I live, so if your getting stuck here you are purposely doing it! Thanks for watching!
This Honda does not have a CD player, which is a no no for millions of people including me...
I think you will find that the vast majority of car manufacturers are doing away with CD players. Most other well equipped models of this class do not have CD players either. What I would suggest for you is to either to get an aux CD player and plug it into the Aux cord. Or even better buy a small usb flash drive and put all your music on that and leave it plugged in. I think that you will find within the next 2-3 years CD players will no longer be found in cars. Thanks for watching!
True crazyjdkid. When I was shopping around for a brand new SUV, no other car company had CD players in their new cars. And the dealers all said the same thing you did. P.S.- I wound up getting the 2018 CRV.
Yes! Times are changing whether people want them too or not. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for posting the video. Yeah, I was a 6 changer CD guy all the way. But interestingly, driving this car for 6 months I've gotten used to having digital music through my Apple Car Play.
Yes, streaming music has definitely replaced most other forms of listening to music. I use Android and it works great with the system as well!
