Real Honda CR-V cases handled at our Bandar Sri Damansara workshop — actual faults, findings and costs.
Case 1 — RW 2019 with CVT shudder at 75,000 km
Owner reported shudder between 30–50 km/h on light acceleration. CVT fluid had never been changed. We drained dark, metallic-smelling HCF-2 and refilled with fresh Honda fluid. Post-service test drive: shudder completely gone. Total cost: RM320. Owner now on a 40,000 km change cycle.
Case 2 — RW 2018 with oil dilution at 90,000 km
Owner noticed oil level increasing between changes. Petrol smell in oil confirmed dilution. Vehicle was used mostly for short commutes under 5 km. Advised: longer warm-up drives at least twice per week, reduce oil change interval to 4,000 km. Swapped to Shell Helix Ultra 0W-20 (slightly higher viscosity base). After 3 months, dilution was minimal.
