Lol when you say bc it doesnt have the twin turbo is a negative :) Yeah RUN from a 1.5 twin turbo, they still have fuel dilution problem.
My first suv and I cannot be more pleased. Very comfortable and roomy. Good on gas and the features it comes with(EX-L)👍
My CRV runs like a dream, very comfortable ,and plenty of power, never had to look under the bonnet...Greetings from Ireland
Extremely under powered.
Hows Your CRV performing now. Any problems?
@@Steveo_00700 my crv is in showroom :)
@@furiousfragment7082 My 2020 CRV is in the Body Shop. Some drunk woman smashed into it 😩
@@Steveo_00700 Where do you live ? : P
2.4 litre engine is better in my opinion.
1. Proven over years
2. No fuel mixing into oil chamber
3. No turbo lag
4. Still an argument as to which makes more noise
5. Turbo engines don't last as long.
Turbo engine gives you a couple miles per gallon more and a couple more hp, but negligable.
I chose the LX (2018/same) and it has more than enough power, picks up fast/well matched to the cvt tranny, and is smooth running.
All trims lack any real towing capacity, that's my one hangup. It'd be a perfect camping trip veh, but few campers can be towed since 1500lb limit
For the sake of consumers, I'd ask Honda to make higher trims available with the 2.4 and make the turbo optional.
Agree. No oil dilution issues. Turbo engine is noisy when you mash on it. The 2.4 liter engine is a capable engine for this SUV. 0-60 mph 8.7 at the 0-60 website. Some of the Turbo times were higher. 184 HP compared to 190 HP, big deal.
This video was certainly a test of this channels integrity and he gets a FAIL for missing Honda's biggest issue and denial of a serious problem.
As far a towing, I wouldn’t tow anything heavy with a CVT anyhow.
@@GlennBatch1 Exactly.
jofrejkd turbo lag can be fixed, that is more of a design issues
I just traded my older accord on a 2019 crv ex, with 27000. The following morning I took it straight back to Honda. My garage smelled like a leaking gas station. I had to open my garage door threee times thru the nite. I can’t believe Honda is pushing these defective engines oh the kicker was it was a certified crv.
Any significant differences in the cvr-touring? Is the safety features worth the extra cost. Feed back.
New subscriber! Thanks for your work in these reviews, Dave! I look forward to watching many of them.
I don’t know why they switched from the 2.5L to the 1.5L turbo. I don’t need a turbo in my crv I just need a comfortable reliable ride, good fuel economy. I don’t care about the touch screen either.
I have a 2019 crv -ex, ,so far no problems, I love it ,it has the 2.4 engine in it
Love my 2019.
No oil dilution, infotainment is a little laggy but you get used to it, drive is great and fuel economy is amazing. If you can handle change, the CVT won’t bother you. And it’s actually quick for a CUV. I’d buy again, over and over.
how many mileage now on the odometer?
@jeremyarndt8218 I just got a used 2019 1.5L AWD this past Saturday with 60K miles. How is yours running and has the oil dilution come up now that's it been 2 years. I have until Jan 13 to return my car if I change my mind. Also, when I hit 64 mph, I notice some noise, not sure if it's the tires or the turbo mixed with the AWD transmission. Let us know your thoughts. Thanks!
Run, dont walk, away from the 1.5l turbo engine. Get the 2.4l
bgregg55 I do not see the turbo engine as a benefit for the CRV. Turbo’s require maintenance, burn a lot more oil and in general cause more stress throughout the engine. Why can they just increase horse power on the 2.4 liter engine. The CrV would benefit from more torque. Also why do we have so many trim levels? Do they really need 4 trim levels? Makes more sense to have ex, exl and touring. Base engine has very little power. Just because everyone buys a CRV does not mean that they have the best product. Honda needs to workout all the kinks out of the product. Canadian CRV has issues which have been recognized as recalls, while American CRV version does not have same recalls? Go figure.
Has anyone told this youtuber about the honda engine dilution problem?😅
@@Azureecosse Oil dilution is only a problem in the 1.5 turbo engine
I’m tire with people complaining about the delution problem 😂 I have mine 1.5l turbo never had problems with that I guest you got your car assembled in China lol
It doesn't come with turbo anymore.
thanks...i'm looking into getting one. when is the 2020 CR V. comming out?
I love my 2019 Honda CRV I have the orange molten lava color
I love Honda and currently drive a Civic, but the 1.5 liter turbo is a mess in the CR-V. Some people are claiming to have the oil dilution problem in the 2019 model year CR-V, and Honda isn't doing much to take care of customers who feel like they got screwed. Honda might consider using 2.0 turbo going forward.
Herman A I doubt they will add a 2.0 as it in their Acura RDX suv/cuv . But can always hope....
2024 and they are still using 1.5 L turbo, but they say they fixed the oil dilution issue.
You forgot to mention that this vehicle needs driven daily to avoid a dead battery. Parasitic battery drain has been a nightmare on my new 2019 CRV.
Always enjoy your videos
I have had a civic, an Odyssey, 3 CRV’s and now a Pilot. They are all awesome cars!
Good and quick top 5 pro and con. Thanks Dave.
A great name BTW, signed Dave.
...And his name is John Cena!!
Until he takes off his cap at the end, then it's Mike Rowe.
It’s still best selling ..
best choice Honda
What about the battery drain issue on the 2019 CRV? Goes dead in 3 days if you don’t drive it
Great review. I purchased the 2019 Honda CR V after seeing your CR V review. I appreciate the fact that you present your reviews from a family perspective. Take care.
Ravi Peiris you better listen guy say. It is true!
Any oil dilution issues?
What about xm radio? Is that included in all the trim levels?
bombidude yes. Just test drove one but went to VW and bought a Tiguan SE and haven’t looked back!
Great video man,subscribed 👌
What about gasoline leaking in the turbo engine and contaminating your oil? I have a 2017 and someone made me aware of this issue with these engines
It's a big, big problem.
@@bodystomp5302 Issue has been resolved... at least on the Canadian models anyway.
I've got the 2.4 ltr LX and I'm sorry, but it's perfectly great and doesn't delay to kick in like the smaller turbo model. Not impressed with the whole 2 miles per gallon difference and non noticable increase in hp for a mere trade in to potentially leak gas into the oil chamber... so yeah, let's not knock the better engine.
Only real negative I have is the inability to tow or pull anything worthwhile.
Don't knock the 1.5 Turbo just because you were to cheap or couldnt afford an Ex or above. The Turbo is miles better than the antiquated 2.4 in the Lx.
@@geftiler2112 lol
@@geftiler2112 because more expensive is always better ??? 🤡💩
@@geftiler2112 How wrong you were. Tell that to someone who has had the oil/ gas problem and they will tell you the commenter made the better choice, You really don't get much as far as mpg and power upgrade with the turbo. A lot of the people who've reviewed these vehicles will tell you that too.
I give a thumbs up..I bought a 2018 CRV because of positive reviews plus my overall experience with Honda. You have a video with a snow run fail..What is your assessment on that? I got through the winter months OK. Really no problem. How does it compare to the competition in the snow?
Yes. NO problem driving/handling on winter roads. I have an '18 too, Touring. I live on the edge of civilization and winter driving was actually fun, haha! For the first time ever ;) I want to see what the '20 looks like in a few months :))))
I just bought a 2019 Touring last weekend! Love it!
How's the inability to buckle both rear left and center belts at same time (withiut crisp crossing the belts) going for ya. Honda claims is normal.
@꧁Wesley꧂ he'll be complaining about it soon...
Check your engine oil for gas dilution!!!!
Our 18 crv ex has a severe oil dilution issue, Honda has been trying to ignore us but we may have finally gotten through. Happens in the summer too. I bet the 2020's will suffer from oil dilution issues too.
xxlxpman spoke to soon lol. Checked the oil today and it reeks of gas.
After hearing about all the oil and gas issues I am going to buy a 2016
I like the look of the newer ones, but the base models don't have the turbo engine, which is the one the leaks. Sad it had to happen. I'm debating on a used one, but I don't want that issue, Did you get the 2016?
The 2.4 doesn't have the oil dilution issue, so it's definitely the better engine.
Its the same direct injection, so it does. And like every other engine does as well, I’ve seen videos where they take the 1.5 to 400hp, its a great engine
@@kevinolaughlin4278 That's a hard negative. 2.4 is port injection. I have that engine. Do your research bro
@@Jedi_Luke The new one is direct injection, do your research bro. I talked to the guy that had the car, and personally seen the car, that is what you call research bro🤘🤣
Transmission. Who makes the Transmission, Automatic, Standard, CVT? JATCO made, AISIN made, Honda made? Spare tire. or tire repair kit or both?
honda makes their CVT's In house , I've got a 2014 accord with a cvt and so far no issues with 11110 kms on the clock
Are mice eating the wires on the 2019 honda crv, or did honda change the soy-based wiring?
Lol soy based wiring. good one
1.5L Engine is the first con and if they are still using that crap than go for a 2015 model with a 2.0 engine.
Daniel Wertz 15 and 16 have vibration issue, just be aware.
Would be nice to know why you call it crap.
The one problem I immediately figured is the child car seat safety latches are way more difficult to reach than I thought. I tried hard to reach to the hook and gave up because it was kinda damaging leather seats. So that can one of a con.
I found the latches super easy to reach once I found them.
Dave - between the 2012, 2013 and 2014 - which is the best year in your opinion? For pure durability/reliability is the RAV4 better than the CR-V in these years? I'm looking to buy used with less than 50,000 miles. The RAV4 is uglier but I could lift it and put nicer wheels and tires.
What did you end up buying?
Yes, I'm curious as well. What did you buy and why? I'm researching now for a purchase later.
I haven't seen any videos explaining the CRV's real-time AWD. Is that angimmick? Or is it better thwn regular AWD? Can you do a 0-60 on the CRV in sport mode. Vs reg drive mode? i want proof that sport mode actually makes the car faster. Thanks, i am a subscriber and ling time fan.... Boyaaa. I got 2 words for you.... Molten lava if you do the requested cwn you choose a crv in molten lava. I love that color!
Wayne Williams the AWD system can send up to 60% of torque to the rear. It is front-biased and will disconnect the rear axle at highway speeds. It engages the rear depending on sensor input, so at acceleration and in turns, as well as when slip is detected. It is an average system. Not the best and not the worst. Perfectly fine for tackling snow.
Thank you from Australia. You are the first to acknowledge the navigation system is frustrating in its directions, unlike my old 2015 CRV. Also No one here has been able to also find why the auto daylight saving time does not automatically update the time which again worked fine in my 2015 model. Wish I had kept that model and not updated.
My Skibunny navigation system sucks; no matter which honda you own
I have a 2015 Touring with the 2.4L Naturally aspirated 4 cylinder and I’ve been doing some modifications to it like adding an air intake that I’ve routed down into the front driver side fog light housing, I took my fog lights out but I still have them at my house, and so air goes through the opening and directly onto the cone air filter. I have a throttle body spacer spacing out the TB from the intake manifold. Hood vents that are actually in the hood, not just taped onto the top of the hood, they’re for heat extraction, I also have a flowmaster super 40 muffler, and I’m really planning on just building an entire 3” diameter piping, single exit exhaust system including a catless downpipe and a high flow cat in place of the second cat which is underneath the car (the one I’d be deleting is the cat that’s attached to the header underneath the hood), one or two straight through resonators, and after that I’ll probably calm down with the ideas for a while. I’ll be saving up to hopefully get some bronze 19 or 20 inch wheels, but the paint color of the car is urban titanium metallic, it’s hard figuring out what goes with it.
Why don’t you make a single mention of the gas mixing with oil in the turbo engines???? Has that been fixed? It has been a problem with stalling, decreased engine life, etc since 2017. Has there been a recall?
Turbos are trouble if you plan to keep it.
Well the turbo is fun and looks good on paper it's a con with its oil dilution. Honda won't live this down until they do a full recall. They made me get rid of my new Civic after one year and countless dealership visits to address the gas smell in my cabin. I got a Mazda because they made more reliable vehicles now. I have worked on high milage CX-5s and the owners told me just routine maintenance and brakes to get to 400,000 kms. As further proof Toyota wouldn't invest as much as they have with them if they weren't. Got a Mazda 6 now, no issues. Built in Japan the right way. SKYACTIV for the win. Honda your Earth Dreams needs more work. If it's not ready for market don't out it on the market.
my bro in our church just had one to be replaced with a pilot now, cause oil and gas are getting mixed together, don't really know how all that happens..
How? Poor engineering.
Loose piston O-rings for better efficiency are letting gasoline condensates drip jnto the crankcase, adding fuel to oil.
What about this mixture of oil and gas in the engine?
Stay away from tje 1.5L engines
Are there still gasoline leaking into the engine oil issue. I have a 2017 and the issue continues to todate.
we bought a 2018 and heard about the gas in oil something about cold starts anyone out there heard anything??
I own a 2018 and have had no oil dilution problems. It seems like the few people with 2017s that had the problem got them fixed with software updates. I love the vehicle, it just so refined and comfortable inside. The engine is just so responsive once you get past 2000 RPM. Just Press gas and you go faster, no more in and outs of power as the gears shift. This CVT and engine combo is really good, it just delivers torque all the way through the band. As for the stereo issues and maps etc. Who cares just plug in your phone and use Android auto or Apple car play. Let Google Maps or Waze handle the mapping.
All crv have this issue, just smell your oil
Dreadlk all crv has the same issue, just take a look to your oil stick, it will smell to gas
@@mmanzur Yes have you any evidence of a 2019 though? No one seems to have any creditable evidence of one. I am waiting for some actual data and not pandemonium from the internet.
Software update did NOT fix my 2017. My oil is jet black at a level up onto the metal dipstick and reeks of gas just like before and after only 1000 miles from software update mileage.
@@jm3814 That's too bad, however the video is about a 2019 CRV. They did more than software upgrades on the 19's.
I'm a huge Honda fan and wanted to purchase the 2019 CRV EX model but the oil dilution issue was too much for me so I did not buy it. I don't believe a fix is possible without redesigning the engine.
They fixed it
@@CarlosValdez-nu4gn nope
@@CarlosValdez-nu4gn no..they didnt fix it..
Love mine. Super smooth drivetrain and suspension and gets 35mpg on the highway
Have a 2017 crv 30,000 miles get 36mpg on highway no oil problems
Check your oil see if its above the upper mark. Mine gets 3/8 of an inch above the top of the orange plastic piece. If its high smell it.
Check your oil and smell it.
Man I really love Honda though
Attention all Honda fan Boys. The Oil dilution problem is real and extensive. Quit posting misinformation that dismisses a significant issue with the 1.5 turbo motors. Honda didn't come clean about the issue until recently. They have pushed out an alleged fix, but there is no concrete information available that their 'fix' is a fix at all. Extending warrantees isn't a solution it's just an attempt to stem potential lemon law filings & lawsuits.
I've owned many Honda vehicles and found them to be excellent, but my 1.5 Civic turbo has been leaking from the oil pan as well as the valve cover since day 1.
I had 10 oz. of gasoline in my oil after the last oil change. That's just under 10% of the total volume.
That's well above normal levels.
Call me picky, but when I drop 20K on a vehicle I expect a bit more quality.
Very true I have a 2017 not sure if the 2019 has fixes and what are you getting 20k? Was it used I spent $35k well it's a lease and I am getting rid of it thanks God.
And not 1 word about this well known issue. I've read it's a cold weather issue, but most of the country does get cold at some point in the year.
@@thare2597 Maybe that's why I'm 45k miles into my 2017 EX-L and have no problems whatsoever here in Southwest Florida. This car is absolutely amazing in every way.
It is an engine fire waiting to happen
Don't buy the turbo. I wouldn't buy anybody's turbo. I am not a fan of CVTs either. This oil dilution is a real disappointment to hear. I have a 2009 CRV that I have had zero issues with.
WHAT THE HELL DOES “LACKS REFINEMENT” ACTUALLY MEAN.
The base engine is a bulletproof engine compares to the oil dilution issue with the turbo engine.
The CVT transmission isn't bulletproof though.
@@atx-cvpi_99 Many will say the Honda CVT is much better then most'
Didn't mention on 1.5t engine oil dilution issue. The lx 2.4 engine doesn't have any major issue, 184hp is sufficient.
Old news and no longer an issue.
And 184 hp in the 2.4L isn't far off from the 190 hp of the turbocharged 1.5L at all!
I’d rather get an naturally aspirated engine. Turbo wears out engine parts
Over

@@MrDcseltzer I agree totally! Turbos will go bad & need replacing. Give me a naturally aspirated engine anytime.
@@ericdolby1622 Genuinely interested in definitive proof the 'fix' works. Haven't seen it.

Thank you so much for your review! I’ve done my homework and no one has been able to give me EVERYTHING I want like the LOADED new 2019 Hyundai SANTA Fe. It has every possible upgrade possible and I’m loving it! I have the 3 year blue link, Sirius XM, and everything I could want. I’m still learning all the cool features. I hope that those who bought this reviewed vehicle are loving it. It was a great review and helped me make my decision. A
Did they move the parking brake pedal, which is in a very awkward place where your left foot keeps catching on it on previous models? I was thinking of getting one, but opted for a RAV4 because of the oil dilution issue and reputed poor dealer support.
I’ve owned a 2018 and a 2020 which is what I have now…. There is a huge problem driving these vehicles in 2023- any Honda-- rougher cities like New York will strip any Honda parked…. It’s been happening…. I live in a small northwest Ohio town and I’ve had complete strangers yell at me about my Honda- this is relatively a quiet town, and I had no idea anything like that would ever happen but because the way the world is today it’s happening.
what is the world are you talking about!?
Just bought a 2019 CRV EX-L model myself about two weeks ago.
Absolutely LOVE IT.
Arnie, are you happy with the acceleration? Thinking about buying a CRV.
L. Dega not only that, I heard that if you don’t use your car for more than 2 days, the battery will be dead, I think this is the new problem for 2019 model year.
@L. Dega Thanks for that, but I haven't had any issues so far.
@@namvet1968 it "can" be better, but honestly, once it gears in, it really moves. I've raced agaisnt Mustages for shits, I'll still lose, but for a brief moment, I'm up there with them, thanks to that 1.5 T
@@blackwhirlwind1245 Not in my experience, I do online college, so my CRV sometimes sits there for a couple days and it turns on great.
Can you do reviews on the Honda passport that was released this year?
Doesn't the 1.5L turbo 4cyl. have a major design failure? I thought I remember reading about the issue in the Civic and I'm pretty sure it's the exact same engine. If so, definitely not worth paying more for this Honda over the competition if this is the case.
Depending on which country are determined the extent of the fix aka band-aid.
A fix was implemented starting December and it would be too soon to determine its efdectiveness.
The 1.5 turbo is in the Civic, Accord & CR-V.
Honda continues to drag their feet. To date there's no evidence that their alleged 'fix' is a true fix at all. Have heard a lot of BS about how the engines have differences so the problem is less prevalent in the Accords & Civics. I haven't been contacted & I expect I won't be. Honda stands to lose millions in class action suits. My Civic has the dilution issue among others.
@@Mayamax3 I'm sorry to hear you have this problem with your Civic. If you don't mind sharing, what other issues is your Civic having? The engine issue, among other reasons, is why I opted for a 2018 Hyundai Elantra. Love the car, but its got an issue with engine detonation that it seems is not a common problem, so the dealer is stumped.
The automatic transmission is garbage on Hondas. If you want a solid automatic transmission, buy a Toyota.
@@MrAsh-cw5cq mine isnt
Beautiful car
My dad owns this car but with a turbo engine And the gas mileage is good I think they fixed it
I am not sure I am not really a car guy
Is the cabin quiet in regard to road & wind noise?
the 2018 and 2019 are much improved over the 2014-2017 models (I have a 2014 and the tire noise on certain roads is pretty bad)...
On highways you do get both from the cargo area of the vehicle, but not at lower speeds. It’s noticeable, but not horrible. Subaru, Chevy and Hyundai/Kia are still worse.
Pretty quiet. It has ANC - active noise cancellation.
Rob Alvarez crv is not a quite car
I have a 2014 CRV they went downhill from there. Gas is getting in the oil supposedly because of the turbo. They do burn all Honda says it's normal. Honda said it was normal for gas to get in the Oil. They just issued a bulletin instead of a recall. I will not buy one of these vehicles. Good luck
Don't get the turbo. But I heard they have resolved that issues which happened on short cold engine trips.
I may consider the base CRV 2.4ltr. for my next car, but, I will still stay away from it because of the price and warranty competitiveness against other import SUV's of the same class.....
In the summer month can you do an review on an camper or go to an RV camper show ?
Is that 1.5 L V-tec engine for 2019?
the 2019's have supposedly received the "fix". hmmmm
Yes stay away
My LX has a turbo, so I'm not quite sure why this is different.
Was the oil dilution issue resolved?
No!!! It wasn’t
Unknown. Honda pushed a mild fix of a computer update and a new HVAC control unit, but it’s yet unknown if that fixed it. Some people are saying it hasn’t.
I rather take the base engine. You can run that engine to 200,000 Mile and never have to clean the intake valve for example. That's a lot of issue with that 1.5 Turbo engine like gas oil dilution
it's not a GDI engine?
Ed T. The 1.5 liter engine is a GDI turbo motor. You can still get the outgoing engine which is the 2.4L K series port injection engine.
@@Victic005 uhhh no . the k24W used in the 2017-2019 base lx is direct injection and starting in 2020 the 1.5 turbo is also in the base model lx
the turbo engine is very noisy. I have mine since 2017
The information i got from dealer regarding Oil dilution was to bring back to dealership for remapping ecu. Just hope all 1.5L turbo 2019 model fixed all of those issue.
I grew up with Toyota but my dad recently got ba crv so that why I here
A very disappointment is on the EX model there's no Homelink or garage door opener
Turbo engines, look for increased auto insurance with engine life shortened. Less gas mileage with all wheel drive. Increased repair of the all the AWD
Hey Everyman Driver....come out from behind he bushes and talk about the oil dilution problem problem the the 1.5 turbo.
I thought the oil dilution was taken care of in the 2019 CRV EX. Now, Im looking to trade because my warranty is out now. I hate leaving Honda, but, the RAV4 is what I'm looking at now. This oil dilution got me worried.

Our 2018 Crv EX suffers from severe oil dilution issues, Honda has been trying to ignore us but we may have finally gotten through. Their tactic has been deny, deny , deny. I would not buy ANY hondas with the 1.5 turbo. Ours retained a pint of fuel in 1000 miles in September and October weather. I'm betting the 19's and 20's will too. Our supposedly had the "fix" before we took delivery. This 18 is our 5th new honda since 2008, probably the last. All trust is lost.
Oil dilution and broken shift nob. I expected better from this list.
WylunCustoms Maybe you should not be so critical and appreciate the effort into this initial list. No ones perfect.
@@EnduranceHour someone paying with a cr with their hard earned money. I would not waste on this vehicle.
All of these and other similar issues have been experienced by all direct fuel injection engine /car manufactures. Including Mazada and plenty of others. Oil dilution for Honda has been addressed by the recall. Including unlimited warranty for the related parts. This topic needs to be put to rest.
@@michaelmyronov1905 not quarts of fuel overfilling the crankcase.
Besides the U.S. owners did not get warranty extension.
Honda learns well from the American management just like GM.
Maybe they are the same people under the different brand.
How could you possibly miss the oil dilution issue with the 1.5? Wow!
Gary Baldwin cause he does not get paid to talk bad about honda or the issues with the turbo engines.
Is it a big issue ? I'm not a mechanic so I don't know. Please explain what it is and how it affects the car ? Thanks
Have 2017. No oil dilution issues. Had recall/service bulletin done just to maintain warranty. I admit I have a Honda extended warranty until March of 2025.
All the new Acura model RDX and MDX come with the 2.0 turbo, 275 hp. Would Honda stick with the turbocharged engines if design faulty?
Would like to add to this. My mother has 100k on her 2017 and I sent the oil to Blackstone for analysis. While there was some fuel in the oil, it was not out of the ordinary especially considering that the oil had 10k miles on it before the change (again, not my car). In addition, dispite SOME fuel being present, there were no indicators that engine damage has occured. Metal content (shavings, indicative of wear) were in the normal range. Bottom line: keep your oil changed reguarly (5k mile intervals), use good quality gas, and you probably will be fine!
@@wtfx5757 Thanks, change mine every 3500 miles. Never had any of the issues mentioned. The complaint of the engine not reaching operating temperature quick enough? Abnormal friction, wear, produces heat.
Have 2001 Mustang GT that doesn't reach operating temperature any quicker. Almost new condition not beaten.
It was an honest review and he just didn't experience any of those issues because they were extremely rare and the complaints were only amplified online by the disgruntled owners who were affected. My 2017 still doesn't have any of those issues and I yes, I do check my oil frequently since the OD issue first came to light more than a year ago and no, I don't live in a particularly hot climate. Sure, Honda should've treated those affected owners better, but the fact is the vast majority don't have OD issues and that sentiment is backed by the many FB groups and forums for this vehicle.
7.9 seconds to 60 , nothing wrong with the 2.4L Accord sourced engine .. and no future Turbo replacements to cost you BIG bux.
My 2011 CRV 2.4 with 80k runs great still. Minor repairs and Maintenance. In some cases, older is better. It's no power house, but does the job.
My 2006 CR-V with 180k miles that I bought new runs great also! No oil dilution or heater problems as on the 15L turbo, and no pita tire pressure monitors either!
stilling driving my 2003
@Rusty Rifle I’m driving my 2004 crv 2.4 4cnl. It’s still running even at 175,000 miles
I love my 2019 CR-V EX-L. It’s a beautiful car.
My 2019 Garmin on board Nav works great.
TERRY i agree with what everyone says about the navigation. Built in navi systems are slow and take a while to process info. My iphone 7 is quicker!
@@danielmelendez9943 I have no issue with my Garmin
No cost dedicated onboard nav.. no data needed.. bigger better screen.. easier control.. speed is just fine.. No connection or packet size problems.. etc..
Honda has made some great cars in the past that are still running well today. There a three types of people buying new cars. The ones that will by something because of it's looks. The ones that will buy only what is cheep. Then there is the ones that do their research and don't want to put their money on something new that has not had all the bugs worked out. I for one will pass on the 1.5L turbo engine.
I’d go with the new Honda Passport. It’s not a turbo and it’s a 6 cylinder. I test drove it and I’ll probably go with that. A little more pricy but the engine will hopefully last longer.
excellent choice...but it is much larger and about $5K more, feature for feature.
GDI intake valves will clog, sorry
Yes, the made some smart design choices with the Passport. It’s just that it’s pricey.
I love my 2019 CRV with 2.4 engine and love this car. Easy to work on, great gas mileage, very reliable. Avoid the Turbo. If you can get a used 2019 2.4 grab it.
Thx
Have the 2019 1.5L Turbo, bought it used 2 years ago, having exactly ZERO issues with it, if you want a bit of fun in your life get the turbo!
Nice!!
They still selling motors with oil dilution issues?
Yep
2019 hybrid crv...do you know of any others?
Kypros Economides all of the turbos from 2017 on
@@ES-pr8bt are you sure about that? Because if that's true it's very sad. Honda had a good reliable reputation for decades and if this what it has come then that's a shame.
Kypros Economides positive. I own a 2018 with the 1.5 turbo. A month after we bought it new they came out with a software fix, but it didn’t work. Don’t bother me a whole lot because we don’t keep a vehicle very long.
Love your videos as always!!! I rather get the RAV4!! Those are selling like hot cakes! We wanted to check one out but there was a waiting list and there were more than 40 plus people waiting!! I prefer the RAV4 all day any day!
Just had one as a rental for 2 days. Typical ho hum Toyota boring and unispired. Tacky glued on tablet on the dash and numb steering. Buzzy motor too.
Great the choice, simple but reliable! That's why it's the best selling sub compact SUV in the world.
@@adamjonathan1421 I just bought a RAV4. I like driving the CR-V better but didn't want to take a chance with the small turbo engine with oil dilution problems mated to a CVT transmission. The RAV isn't as smooth or integrated or refined. The engine is loud and suspension not as refined. But it is normally aspirated and eight speed transmission. Being a new model I anticipate it will have "bugs" which can be fixed and not a basic design flaw like a tiny turbo and cvt transmission. I will put up with the noise and bounce for 200,00+ miles.
Eric Dolby you said the EXACT same thing about the Honda! Literally cut and paste comment!!!
Stop trolling! These are CUVs, not sports cars.
Turbo... Everyone selling turbo today, but it is Honda problem is very unusual. !!!, I was looking at 2017 to purchase CRV here in Canada(we do not have option to get regular 2.4 L engine here), only turbo, but decide to go with Rav 4,.. Rear and back sonars are very important for me.( reality of today small parking spots) Honda had only dealer option install rear parking on new car.. Why not to add from factory as they did for Passport ? Why take the radio knobs and add back only volume??? It is a car to drive and park and less destruction for driver it is the best..The best is for Honda is switch to 2.4 l regular engine as Hyndai did with Tuscon model. I can advise about Civic( i,m SUV person).Good Luck
Fuel in the oil is a MAJOR problem.
Yes!! Yes!!!
unless it's a weed wacker with a 2 cycle engine.
I have yet to find a trusted navigation system regardless of the vehicle. I'm always switching to my smartphone.
@I spamsalotThat depends. You need a ride?
My mazda navigation has never steered me wrong.
Very disappointed you didn't mention the oil dilution, engine and air conditioning problems of the latest CRV. I have always found your reviews to be honest and reliable but not this one! I hope you will do better in the future.
This is a review of the 2019 model and not the 2017 or 18 model.
Maybe it was an honest review and he just didn't experience any of those issues because they were extremely rare and the complaints were only amplified online by a few disgruntled owners. My 2017 doesn't have any of those issues and I yes, I do check my oil frequently since the OD issue first came to light over a year ago. The fact is the vast majority don't have OD issues and that sentiment is backed by the many FB groups and forums for this vehicle.
If you want a reliable CR-V avoid the 1.5L turbo engine.
Or buy a 2019 Santa Fe 2.4- much better in every way.
Buy a Toyota RAV4 instead. It has a better made transmission. Toyotas will always outlast the Honda if the Honda has a automatic or CVT transmission and/or a turbocharged engine.
Way to not explain why or provide any evidence for such a definitive, finite statement! 10 points for ignorance!
I heard that too
Honda has not recalled that engine
I heard it was a trouble issue but
Mixing gas with crankcase oil is not a good thing
the best engine is 2 liter without turbo and the gearbox clasic automatic with torque converter . NOT C.V.T or German DCT
er... Honda 1.5T oil dilution problem???
Oil solution issues???? Also CVT on an SUV ? Turbo will kill the engine over time
Had a Honda CR-V, very noisy...I drive a lot of highway miles. It was quite annoying. Changed tires, not much better. Just throwing it out there...
Victor M all hondas are noisy. Thats the nature of the 4 cylinder engine
Great SUV with one really annoying problem for anyone that lives on or uses dirt or gravel roads. All gaps around the doors suck in dirt particularly the tailgate. The bottom door seals are dirt catchers and are impossible to clean. No carwash is able to clean those seals. I have started to go to a coin carwash and spend $2 every time to rinse all door cavities, particular the bottom door seals before I go to a regular carwash.
I wonder what the body engineers think coming up with such crappy design, are the cars ever tested other than on nice clean California roads? I noticed several other car companies have gone to the wrap around door design and seem to solve the problem a little better. For me, I will never buy a CR-V again for that reason.
August Weitkamp Is there a similar vehicle you recommend? I live on a very long gravel road.
@@DebBoha2011, To be honest, there isn't a vehicle that is ideal if you live on a gravel road. Best are still most sedans. Some of them have sealed door and hood seals and due to there trunk, the rear windows don't get as dirty as SUV's or station wagons. Some of them have now also wrap around door bottoms, eliminating the door sill and are just as bad as the CR-V. All you can really do if you get an SUV avoid any with wrap around doors and make sure they have tight gaps, particularly on the tail gat. Good Luck,
thousands of complaints with oil dilution, petrol smells in cabin and engine oil levels reading very high - some of these issues causing the engine to stall. read the CRV owners forums and NHTSA complaints before buying.
