Hello Honda Experts in the house,

Please help my 2011 Honda CRV transmission oil is leaking, I had once repaired this same problem in less than 6 months. What can be the casue of this recurrent leakage. These days, the leakage is so much that I have to put a pan under the car.

Also, my transmission now make noise on lower gear and vibrates whenever I am climbing hilly road.

Please help, what can I do?

Awesome improvement.
For the vibration at first acceleration, you need to check the thyroid for clearance.
Also, for the vibration at hard braking, check the brake disc.

Another trick, let your mech sandpaper the brake disc surface and the surface where u have the studs.

Try this and let's know if it resolves the issue.

bro. Today I tried to check the shaft bearing. While disassembling it one of the ball joint rod turns with nut. And we had to remove the full hub To get this the shaft. The bearings are ok. We just added more grease.

Then the wheel hub we service with more grease and change the seal.

The car still vibrates. I'm already tired.

What do you think of the ball joints rod that turn with the nut? Doesn't that mean it's already damaged?

Can the back leg cause vibration?

ksmart027:

Have you done wheel balancing?

fineboynl:
I went to computer. They said it's ok. I also went to where they use mirror. They also sekd it's ok. What do you think of that ball joint. Should I change it.

jceesquare:

The ball joint turning with the wheel is an indicator that it has not tightened well enough.
Add pressure to the back of the ball joint then tighten it properly.

fineboynl:
the ball joint rod is turning inside the ball joint not from the body. I have never seen such kind of thing before.

Tomorrow I will be removing it. It's the reason the car make clunky noise from the tire when it enters gallop.

Good morning guys.

From inception, my fuel Guage don't work until I have a half tank or I buy fuel of about 30k the it will work, then go down again.

I use like that, but I'm not comfortable driving without knowing what level of fuel I got.

Then my EOD 2004 stopped on the road and Meka said change fuel pump.

Now my question. I've asked and they said 25k for the total package. Will the fuel Guage work if I change the whole set up.??

Mind you, another rewire told me it could be the wiring... I don't want to spend 25k this morning and fuel Guage not reading ooo.

Will it work perfect rly if I change the whole set up, or change only fuel pump and manage my thing like that.

Chae:
Comrade I'm planning to get honda evil spirit for uber hustle, what r d do and don't of d car? Is it rugged for d hustle?

jceesquare:

I understand what you're saying.
Add clamping force behind the ball joint then tighten it well. It will make the stud not turn while torquing the nut.

Although I tot of upragrade cos am using civic presently and I need car that has a big trunk for personal uses aside from uber
For me, not a good idea. I will recommend the Honda Civic for this.

I will suggest you change the complete fuel pump with the gauge. Better still, go to ladipo or Oyingbo, let them fix the complete fuel pump and observe the gauge if it works. If it doesn't work, then u can decide either to buy or not. Last I checked, complete fuel pump is around 40k with the gauge.

kelvinmnet:


Follow through on the advise from Jceesquare or better still, buy a new ball joint.
But this issue you are experiencing is usually with the upper arm ball joint.
Is yours happening on the lower arm?

ksmart027:

I don't think the ball joints have nothing to do with your vibration, but if it's bad, you can change it. What about your tie rod and inner cv joint?

List of what we did today.

Change the ball joint. That chunky sound on bad road has stop.

We check the shaft cups everything ok.
We check the bearings everything ok.
Hub bearing everything ok.

The only thing that was left was the disk. Because of confusion I bought toks disk.

The problem still persist.

Someone suggested I increase the engine that the engine is low and not powering it well.

Engine rev at idle 600-650 when fully warm.

The problem is that I think gear 2 at between 2000 rmp. It vibrates and more obvious when climbing high at low speed (2000 rmp)

Namzy:


I hope it's the inner shaft cups that connects to the transmission that was checked? And how was this checked?

jceesquare:

I'm responding to the bolded.
1st, what car are we talking about? We need to know if it's drive by wire or drive by cable.
Secondly, how do they intend increasing the engine RPM?
It would be better to use a live data to confirm the actual RPM readings. It is more accurate that way. I believe if there's an issue with your idle at close loop (when engine is fully warmed up), it should trigger a code.
Also, your engine RPM has nothing to do with your vibration while you're already in motion as the engine is already running at higher RPM and appropriate gear set by your ECU.
Remote diagnosis would be impossible at this point, but you might need to inspect the upper arms if car is equipped with a double wishbone suspension.

Honda DC.

The code i have is oxygen sensor. Bank 2 sensor 1.

jceesquare:

Your Honda DC uses drive by wire throttle system. I wonder what magic they want to do to increase the RPM.
Is yours a V6?
That code won't cause the vibration, but MIGHT affect the RPM and fuel economy.

nurey:


Some DC use drive by cable especially those bought new in Nigeria
