I don't want a "Start" button. Prefer not to have a "Smart key" either. Just more that can go wrong and expensive to fix.
Yeah I can see how you can think that. I’ve had a smart key and no issues for over 10 years. Works wonders as I don’t have to take the key out of my pocket. Super convenient.
I’ll take an older 5 speed automatic over a CVT. And a 2.5 L engine over the 1.5 L with turbocharger. With the inherent oil dilution problem. The older CR-V’s will last 300k miles.
smart move. That's why I prefer 2014 crv with AT and NA engine over 2015 and later as they all have CVTs and turbo engine.
Avoid the cvt's.
@@Komputar .... the girlfriend’s low mileage CR-V has a CVT. Runs good but we’ll for how long. My 2010 CR-V has 200k miles
Yup, just got a '14 with under 50k miles - the last of the reliable "not Earth Dreams" CRV's
@@antimon40 I did the same 2014 Touring 98000km
Well, I had a 2014 LX AWD and traded it for a 2018 RDX AWD at 60,000. The things I hated about the CRV were: Under power, uncomfortable small seats, no armrest, foot brake. Note: some of these had changed from 2015. I would have brought a 2018 CRV except I hate the following: Turbo, CVT, same small seats. Conclusion: I am a firm Honda fan and it's the most reliable cars , and would not buy any other brand.
I liked your way of describing interiors, car comfort
Thanks! I appreciate it 😃
Push-button start is bullshit. Just more money to replace them.
Just got a 2013 exl with 58k, also have a 2010 both are great. Did not want anything to do with the turbo or the cvt transmission, else would have brought newer.
I find it quite good
It's definitely a good, reliable and sound investment.
Lovely, practical, dependable, spacious, comfortable etc.
My 2014 CRV has start up rattle. But not any more. I learned how to stop it.
Did you have to replace the VTC actuator?
@@eeb8267 No. I just tap crank the starter a few times then start it. No rattle. When it's cold out I tap crank it 4 times . then start it.
@@dangunn6961 You should make a video about this
I did something similar. I put in a switched fuse for the fuel pump. I crank a few seconds before I switch the fuel pump on then start like normal
My Honda Element still using the old 4 speed auto.
The main problem is the Real Time 4WD system.It has a software glitch and doesn't kick in automatically when the front wheels slip
That’s true and that’s why it costs less than an sh-AWD. CRV is primarily a fwd and switches to AWD only when needed but with a disclosure. The software needs to compile the conditions and then activate the non slip wheels which means a real time AWD as per their marketing department. At the end of the day, you get what you pay for. You can switch to Subaru if you want all time AWD in the mid segment.
My element, which has 4wd badge on the tailgate, is great in the snow. However, I believe it is awd
No this is a poor marketing for AWD. Most non-truck/hardcore Jeep like vehicles are FWD bias AWD systems which means they mostly are driving with FWD and when slip is detected the differential uses the rear wheels for extra traction. The badge is irrelevant and doesn’t determine if your car actually has symmetrical AWD. Honda, Toyota, Volkswagen and many others use a similar system.
In general, if you are not off roading rarely would you ever need more than FWD.
@@DerrickMoy I’ve driven many fwd only vehicles and they pale in comparison to awd. I am self employed n make deliveries in all kinds of weather. Up until my 2011 element, I used fwd minivans with good weight in them. Got stuck several times pulling into semi cleared parking spaces. I never had an issue with my element and hope the crV is the same.
@michaelcozzini5252 what tires are you using and where are you driving that you’re getting stuck? There aren’t a ton of scenarios where you should be getting stuck on a road with the proper tire in really any amount of snow. If you’re using all season tires in snow you should be using at least all weather tires which now have a triple peak certification.
I don’t know if you still on yours but I still on mine, never had a repair yet. Anyway just wanted to tell you that little truck does have VTEC
Does she still have this CRV any major issues with it?
Yeah she does and no, but she also doesn’t have many miles on it only 40k
it sounds like it wants to die, when you floor it
Through in some more insulation and you have an Acura wanting to die haha.
Explain 2014 CRV Navigation system
This vehicle didn't have it though my 2012 EX-L AWD does. What's your question(s)?
How many mpg on highway. And what state is your suv from
About 28 to 32 mpg on highway
Sadly no V-tech? My 2014 CRV has v-tech.
.".one of the first cons is the key"..nope,it s not..not a proper review unfortunately!
My hi speed 91mph
I have a 2015,and I think that the seats are very thin and uncomfortable.
Always thought Honda’s were great machines, their reputation, but our 2014 is very loud inside, not comfortable at all, much harder on gas than I ever expected, interior feels cheap and at only 53,000 miles on the clock, I fear we’re about to lose the tranny. I just expected more from Honda. I thought when I got it, I’ll have it serviced at the dealer, about 36k on it they wanted to change the brake fluid, I pretty much figured scam. Don’t hate the car, just not in love with it, paid,in my opinion, way more than I got. Still about 8 months to pay it off and looking like we’ll be putting a transmission in it, we’re a couple in our 50’s, we don’t drive it hard and keep the oil changed, it’s just not holding up!
I really like hearing these types of stories. It's interesting to hear about the comfort, do you have the cloth seats? My fiance's mother has this exact same car fully loaded with the leather seats and they aren't as comfortable as the cloth ones.
That's the thing that gets most people is the reputation. I believe everyone should be able to break through the brand of the cars and pick cars based on their perception versus a "reliable" brand.
The interior of this car is just okay in my opinion. It definitely doesn't feel premium in anyway. In a sub $30k segment for SUV's there are many more options and many other brands whose interiors hide the hard plastics much better than Honda.
If the transmission needs a replacement Honda's warranty covers 5 year/60K mile powertrain so if it needed to be replaced it would be covered under warranty. 36K miles is about the regular service for brake fluid so that wouldn't concern me as much. You can also think about trading the car in. The best part about Honda's are probably their resale value if you're in the market for something new. Anyways, good luck and thanks for the comment!
Derrick Moy yes, it has cloth seats and a sun roof.
2002-2006 CRVs were the best.
I have a 2014 honda crv EX-L fwd with 88,000 miles with no issues
1:59 vtec
My 2014 CRV has V-Tech.
I actually like the crv 😂the power to me was actually really good cause I was coming from an old Toyota with 125hp 😂which feels sooo much slower lmao. The only thing I didn’t like was the stereo it’s a pce of crap I was actually surprised how bad it was even compared to my 07 matrix
Get the EX-L version. Much better stereo with subwoofer.
They should have just gave the CRV the 200 HP K24A2 engine from the Acura TSX.
Death Trap. My. CRV will not stop on snow.
Do you have snow tires? If not that would be the reason stock all season tires will do terrible in the snow.
I put snow tires and it’s perfect in the snow.
60k mi
A 6 speed for what. They’ve ran a 4 speed for the longest. Not Honda specifically. But in general. A five speed. Just talking about more gears for Jo reason. Gears do something specific. Just bc it’s under powered doesn’t mean it needs 6 gears 😂 u can lower gear ratios or make them longer. 🤦♂️ the crv is perfect. It does what it was meant to do. U think that vtec will help u 😂. Don’t buy a crv. Would I prefer a keyless start absolutely. Bc ignitions tend to wear out over time. Plus they end up breaking bc of weight on the keychain. Typically women. Bc unfortunately they do it. They put a lot of useless junk on there. Literally the only things I have on my keys ring is the key. The remote and my house key. One house key. That’s all I need 😂 I don’t need 500 charms and shoes and incense and fricken other useless crap. That crv is capable of things I would’ve never thought it could do. I am a Chevy guy. Let me tell u something. I’ve never loved a car like I do my crv. I wouldn’t trade it for a Ferrari
Push-button start is bullshit.
Just another gimmick for the lazy.
@@242HP Just another 350$ part you must buy from them.
this guy sucks at reviews. didn’t even say what was the time on the 0-60
Agreed he does suck
Yuck!
"Guys, it's 2014, add that 6th gear in" It's a CVT, but hey you don't have to know anything about the car to make a YT review.
+Sam Clementi yeah... it's not a CVT lol 5 speed auto.
Yep. Derrick is right. Cvt wasn't introduced till the 2015 model year. Maybe your should read more before making asinine comments.
2014's don't have the CVT. But hey you don't have to know anything about the car to make a stupid YT comment.
Ohhhh, Sam! I'm surprised that you never deleted this rude, inaccurate comment, since it makes you look like such a dumb-ass! I hope you've matured in these last 2 years.
What's a CVT Sam?
