Proud to say at 34, finally become an apprentice for mechanic. Bought 2003 crv awd and will perform a safety inspection for this k24 monster. Exact what's needed to it.
This is THE " Go To" channel for Honda CRV owners-Eric has taught me a lot and saved me bucketloads of cash!
Eric thank you for making these videos. Even 9 years later you're helping me keep my 05 element alive. Truly a godsend.
An abundance of clean rags is always a nice thing to have regardless of what you're doing.
Eric,
This is the BEST multi-point examination with service maintenance video. PERIOD!
Thank you
My 2005 CRV is in great shape thanks to you, and yes I no longer need anyone to do the work for me, it's all done by me and that's how I know it's done right and it's that much more satisfying. Thanks again...
Good luck when you need to replace the Crankshaft Inner (back side) Seal & Oil Pump or Oil Pump's O-Ring.
Even Eric and many shops will hit you well over $1,500 for this repairs.
Or when your AC compressor explodes like a bomb blasting aluminum shards throughout your engine compartment, and sending aluminum all throughout your AC system... full system replacement, including lines... drive it off a cliff or have an ac guy do it, and have if fail a year or two later, your choice...
But I get you. Due to poverty setting in, I've gone from never having done break pads, to some crazy stuff thanks to Eric and others.
It's a cliche, but I've just learned a $3k lesson (pretty cheap as far as high education goes now), stay ahead of simple maintenance with Honda's. Change the oil, more often then recommended in the manual, that high mileage change was created SOLELY to bring the "official" cost of ownership down - you only have to do 1/3 of the oil changes.... And change the transmission fluid, and change rear differential and or transfer case. Change the break, power steering, and coolant. You do that, and you should be driving a fit vehicle for a very long time.
We're at +150,000 miles on a CR-V and an MDX. I've neglected everything on these cars, and now I'm having real trouble, more so on the CRV, that AC repair is no joke $$$. But, I've learned, and I'm on the straight and narrow, now!
Thanks ERIC!
Imo, Eric is the best youtube mechanic ever. PERIOD!
That's the voice of experience. I've worked on Honda's for many years. I know what works and what doesn't. I wouldn't say something unless I believed it to be true.
At 12:40 . My shafts look like its coming out. Especially the left side. What to do
Eric - you rock man. I have a 2003 Element and you have helped me so much. You have a great instinct for emphasizing the importing stuff and glossing over the "whatever". Thank you :-)
My 2003 Element is at 226k and I like watching your videos to refresh my maintenance plan. I always use wheel bearing grease on the brake sliders at every brake pad change and have never noticed any rubber boot degradation but I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for your explanations as your work, not just the what and how, but the why. You're one of the very few that I trust.
Have recently started listening to car maintenance videos. I find yours to be excellent with important notes. If I remember, you are still looking for a garage. Just keep these great videos going. Thanks so much for all of them.
Eric I love your video's. I love working on my Honda Element myself. Not to mention I'm saving a lot of money. You're the greatest.
Thank you so much for this extremely detailed video. Just purchased a 07 CRV EX-L with 99750 on her. So I'll be doing all of this asap to make sure I hit the reset button on mine.
Knowing how to perform my own services will no doubt save me a ton of $. Not to mention I work at a dealership so get all parts cost plus 10. So I'm stoked. Happy 2017 to ya brother.

Going to change the coolant by myself for first time. Thanks for the vids.
Eric, there is an exterior transmission fluid filter. It is located on the hose that runs right behind the radiator drain. Lower plastic panel will have to be removed to access it from below.
E is the man as usual.... helpful to me.. i just purchased 06 EX awd ELEMENT... love it..
I'm so happy I drive the same car as Eric. Many THANKS for these videos
Thanks Eric! Good stuff. I've saved a bunch of money maintaining my CRV myself.
Love your Honda Videos. Helpful because I have a 2005 Honda Element AWD Automatic and original owner with 140,000 miles
Thank you for your valuable times.
You are awesome. Thank you for this. It's one of the most informative maintenance videos I've ever seen.
Thanks for the valuable info, Eric. I have my list of parts and fluids to pick up at Honda and get busy on my 107,000 mile 2006.
Thanks for the information Eric, Nice video. Hope you keep finding stuff to work on and take us along with you. I really enjoy all the stuff u put out there. Thank you.
Learned so much from watching this! Thank you for the thorough details and sage advice. I know a lot more about how to service my Element :)
Thanks for the instruction, I am beginning to know my car a little better. Keep up the good work.
Good bless you 🙏 Eric, shut a good information and learning a lot on my Honda Element!
Outstanding whole video....the video was good from beginning to end. Thx.
and as always, congrats on another outstanding video eric! this one was on point!
A big thank you sir......I just purchased a 2003 Element with 185k miles on it......she will need some attention......and new crush washers :)
I did remove both caliper pins, I just didn't remove the bolt. After doing this a lot you look for short cuts. Thanks for your input.
Excellent job the best! Thank you for your time in sharing your knowledge with us
That was awesome! Thank you so much for the info and tips!
I never heard of the Beck/Arnley coolant, will sure look into it. Thanks a million for this 2 part guide. creating DIY home mechanics which i hope is a good thing ;)
Great Video. Love Honda cars. They really are fantastic.
Eric! 42000 people have watched part one of this informative service video series, but only 25000 have watched part 2!!!!
I spy with my little eye, the multiple hose clamps around the cat shield. I did that with my 99 CRV works great without spending money on new shields or catching the grass on fire by not having shields. A good tip for the weekend mechanic. When they start rattling is the time to install clamps before you lose them.
this is one super informative video that covers alot of common maintence tasks on vehicals. i dont see how this video sucked.
love your video. I enjoy watching it. Thanks :)
Thanks again Eric....Just fully serviced my in-laws CRV....Brownie Points for me...(I need to get into their good books)....
Thanks!
Excellent episode... Thanks for creating and sharing...
Yeah! Part Two! WOO! Keep it up Eric, Love the vid's.
Eric, I like your black disposable gloves better than the old ones...Great video bro.
beauty, I'm looking for a element here in Canada . Hard to find a good one without covid prices. Great video Eric !
It's designed that way on rubber mounts. This actually HELPS with torque. You don't want a stiff mount for something like that, flex is good.
Love your channel, I’ve learned a lot. “Silicone grease” is a plumbing product used on faucet valve stem’s. I’ve purchased it at a Lowes store, $3 or $4 for a small container. Should be the same as “silicone paste”.
It was. I changed it 5 years ago with dual pump.
Great info and tidbits of wisdom. In my limited experience changing coolant I stumbled upon a technique that seems help bleed the system. I jack up the front of the car (where the radiator is) and maybe its my imagination but it seems to help in bleeding the air out.
I thought, basic service items, what could I learn about that? Eric, with your knowledge about Honda's it DID really help. I don't work on Honda's much, but they do turn up now and again.
Only over the long term. Mostly what I've seen is harsh engagement when using non Honda transmission fluid. The truth is that I've known people that have run other fluids and for the most part they've been fine. However having always run Honda fluid I know you'll be fine. It's your choice really.
Eric, also take a look at the boots on the power steering rack. The right boot (passenger side) tends to tear and will probably require replacement at some point. Thanks again for another helpful video.
An excellent video ... Thank You!
Hello everyone,
I’ve hit my first delima!
My daughter has a 2005 Honda CRV EX AWD that I am trying to complete a drain and fill on her transmission, and did a drain and almost exactly 3.3 quarts came out (I did measure so confident on amount). Dumped in exactly 3.3 quarts of DW1 back into the transmission. These numbers seem to be what I should have expected from my research on the make/model/year. started car and ran the trans thru all the gears to distribute fluid and let it warm to operating temperature. turned the car OFF and pulled the dipstick, wiped and checked the level…the fluid is not even touching the bottom of the dipstick :(. I will add that this car has zero leaks of any kind….it’s been a great car and has no shifting issues at this time. Here’s the funny thing….I can go out after it sits all night and check it cold and it is exactly even with the top of the XXXX marks on the dipstick. So everybody I talk to is saying car must be at operating temperature then shut car off and check level on level ground within 60 seconds and no more than 90 seconds, and when I do this the dipstick is completely dry but shows perfect after sitting all night and cold. Sooooo, do I need to add until full when it’s warm (which would be putting in much more than the recommended 3.3 quarts) or are late models different and need to be checked cold? It seems if I add more fluid when warm, that the level would be way over max when cold. I know Hondas are picky on fluid levels and don’t want to hurt her car.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give to explain what I’m doing wrong!
Very nice video . Thanks
*New crush washers* You make me so proud Eric!
Speaking of rear diff fluid, after i bought my 99 CRV i had a strange thing going on. When i was making tight turns like driving into parking spot etc. there was this incredibly loud, high pitched squeal, sounded like brakes, just a bit louder and deeper. So i checked and greased all the brakes, there was plenty of friction material so didn't worry about that, i replaced serpentine belts because they needed replacement anyway. All ball joints, bushings and stuff like that was tight. Then i realised that at slow, tight turns wheels turn at much different speeds and something might be squealing inside the differential, so i got some DPF II fluid, replaced it and it's good as new. No noise, 4wd works perfect.
Very helpful video, thanks!
Smashing tutorial, as allways :-)
That honda looks like a solid machine :-)
THANK YOU ERIC !!!
I find that it's good practice to remove both caliper pins when servicing the brakes. Last few cars I've owned - the service was likely done as you described, and the top caliper bolt was absolutely fused to the caliper. One of them was so bad that I had to replace the caliper. The others I had to remove the caliper and take a breaker bar to the bolt.
awesome video thank you for your efforts..
Thank you super helpful ur the man thanks again.
great info. thanks for the tips.
1/2" pvc for spill free funnel extender.
your engine sounds very healthy!
I once had a loud noise from the rear diff when going around corners... changed the fluid went away. For the overflow coolant tank, I would recommend taking it out, draining and rinsing it out. Since the fluid just sits in that tank alot it can develop sludge at the bottom.
22:32..look that man swinging!
Clear explanation Eric, as useual :)
i had anco on my old impala for about 4 years great wipers
FYI, the rear differential drain and fill bolts are much harder to get to on a 2006 CRV because Honda moved the canister assembly & cover a few inches rearward from earlier models. What Eric is showing you here is an earlier model which was much easier to work on because the drain and fill bolts are not being blocked. The job can be done but the canister assembly has to be removed. It is secured with three bolts; two facing toward the front of the car and one facing toward the rear and then you will be able to get to the drain and fill bolts. Lastly, make sure to get your car at least 18 inches in the air. I had mine on ramps and there was no way that I could move under the car and get the proper leverage not to mention its claustrophobic as all hell having your face that close to the bottom of the car. One other thing, you might want to order new drain and fill bolts. They tend to get a little brittle with age. Good Luck……..

In my experience you don't need to remove the EVAP canister from the CR-Vs you're talking about, if you have a low-profile ratchet head. Sometimes I remove the canister's steel plate cover for more room, but those 3 bolts holding it on are liable to snap if they're too rusty. I've never once seen 'brittle' drain or fill bolts on a Honda -- they're just steel bolts. The 3/8" square drive hole does often get rusty and it's hard to fit a ratchet head in there so in that case maybe replace if too much build-up accumulates and it starts to strip a bit. I always replace the drain washer, but opt to replace the fill washer as well for peace of mind. Many master techs at my dealership replace washers every-other service and have zero comebacks for leaks.
Regarding the EVAP canister, It does need to come out. Call any Honda dealership (speak with a mechanic, not a service writer as they pretty much know next to nothing about working on these cars) and they will tell you on a 2006 CRV removing the EVAP canister is a must. Earlier models do not present this problem. If you actually think that I am wrong and can perform the task your way, please produce a video here and I will personally pay you $100.00 via PayPal for your efforts. If I'm right which I know I am, you can pay me $100.00. I anxiously await your video..................
I am getting awful rubbing noices when I am turning the searing from both sides, easpecially lock turn three point turn or reverse round the bend or even turning to right or left on a climb - I was told that this noice is coming from the rear wheals, is it because of the differential oil?
Oh my vehicle is a 1998 CRV done only 100K,
Eric, I'm planning on buying a used Element and this video series is awesome. Since I live in the northeast (NY), what are the rust areas I should look out for?
Great video man! I appreciated all the additional information you added to each section.
Excelente video felicidades
Excelent. MOre honda videos.
Eric, I apologize if this has been asked a lot, but when doing the rear differential where do I find the cap to put on the quart bottles? I have an 08 Element and did my trans yesterday, would have never done that without this video, thanks for the much needed confidence.
You didn't even watch the video. Yes, he did on the Part 1 and refilled on this video.
Thank you 🙏
My car, 2008 pontiac g5 is a self bleeding cooling system, really nice actually. No radiator cap and a presurized overflow, take the cap off the overflow and it will bleed itself without spilling.
Yea fuel filters went away about 2002 on Honda's.
You can replace the blades. It's cheaper to replace the inserts however.
I top that off every oil change with fresh so I really didn't need to go that far.
Awesome thanks!
Hey Eric great video. Is that Beck Arnley coolant as good as the Honda stuff? I know you should stick with their fluids in the trans and differential.
In the video he says, "good stuff," until he's a chemist he may not have a ton more to say.
have you ever thought about converting to a CAI for your 04? Im thinkin about doin it for my 03 and if you do it I would love to see an instructional vid
Great Video. I would Love to see a VTM-4 System service....! SD!
Hey Eric maybe go over the tire pressure warning system the is on most cars these days. The basic systems only tell you that the pressure of the tire needs to be checked, it doesn't tell you if its high or low. Reason I say this is, I had a lady with a truck that complained the her light was on and she kept filling the tires but the light wouldn't go off and had no traction on snowy roads. I found the both driver side tires had 60 psi ( called for 35 on the door sticker) could have been bad.
I just dropped my 2014 Jeep Patriot 4x4 for a 05 Honda Element with 131,000 miles. Jeep is garbage and I've spent over 5k in repairs first 60k miles.
I'm about to start learning how do maintenance this by myself as I don't trust dealerships anymore. I'm about to order bushings for the sway bar because I have some rear-end noise, looking into 3 inch spacers and some bigger tiresto make it a little beefier for taking to the woods. I'm going to go back and watch part 1 and part 2 and make a list of what I need to do.
Interestingly I'v driven 2017 Honda Civic, CR-V and Odyssey. I think among all three I like the CR-V best. Had to laugh on the intimacy with vehicles thing.
I use Permatex brake caliper grease which is apparently safe for rubber boots on the slide pins. I also use it on the metal shims between break pad and caliper. Have you had any experience with this stuff Eric?
i use dielectric grease on my pins. try it its awesome!
I really like that high profrmance silicone lubricant on my rubber parts, like bushings.
Elvis swinging his hips at 22:32,lol
I recommend Cleaning and lubricating the brake pins. Many ppl don’t do this.
i use penrite dual pump fluid, i find it works well, but i think think they offer it in the states, Australia only i think
thanks a lot.
Thumbs up!
Hi Eric nice video I just wonder if you have a video of 2003 Honda Element wheel
bearing replacement or when there are bad.. thank you
I appreciate the videos. I have a question for you when you where replaceing the differential oil did you happen to rock the axle back and forth where the axle meets the differential if so did you hear a knocking noise because that is what is happening to mine. I had the turning at low speed noise do to old dfps oil I replaced it and now the noise is back I went to check and thats the only knocking i here is when i rock that axle back and forth im thinking i need to replace the axle
Eric can you plz do a video on replacing the VTC Actuator on a Honda. Pref i4 k24 series like my 2009 Accord sedan i4 EX-L. Honda refuses to recall for me. Thank you
Hey Eric, Do you have any videos on the 2007 Chevy Silverado LT? I own one with 80+K miles and am looking to make this truck last forever. I am a fireman. An we have the habit of sort of over-taking care of our equipment. Normally because we don't get new equipment very often. Thanks man! Love the videos!
Eric, can you attached a piece of tubing onto your funnel? Would that work and allow you to get into the lower radiator opening?
