Here's the story:
The starter on the CRV is known for its ability to slowly die over time. The car tries to trick you into thinking its a dead battery. But its not. Over the course of 2 months this particular vehicle would struggle more and more with starting.
The funny thing is that the starter motor tested fine. The voltage was good, the load was good, but it still had the torque of a dandelion. Even AFTER I pulled the starter out of the CRV and had it tested at O'Reilly Autoparts, it tested 'good' in every category (Except that it was visibly spinning much much slower than the new part I had purchased.)
Overall the repair wasn't that bad. You DO have to remove the intake manifold. Unless you have Hobbit sized fingers and tools, in which case you can just reach up from below the engine once you take off the plastic shroud under the vehicle. Each plug and hose can only go in one spot. So just remember where each connection is and you'll be just fine. As always, if you have any questions just leave them below!

Thank you so much. My friend was doing mine and he said it had to go to the shop cuz he was going from the bottom. I appreciate you bunches!! Saved me big bucks. He said i had to take it to the Honda dealership. I did it myself, took WAY more than an hour but I'm on the road again!!!

It's doable from the bottom but unless you have a lift it's much easier to do it from the top. Also you better pray that you don't have any seized or over torqued bolts if you try to get to it from the bottom. My 17 mm bottom bolt took a lot of PB blaster, MAPP torch, and torque bar to get loose. There's no way in hell I could have done that from the bottom. just goes to show that sometimes fewer steps =/= easier or quicker job.

Tips for 2005 Honda CRV - Remove the upper radiator hose and the rest of the intake, to allow for enough room to get the intake out - For the 2 small coolant hoses which are bottom, right, remove both of them, both sides. If you only disconnect one side, they will be taking up space that you need to get the intake in and out. - Check and check again that all connectors and hoses have been removed. These are all mentioned in the video, but I still missed at least 3. I was in there to replace my knock sensor (btw, torque is 23 ft-lbs). I also replaced upper/lower radiator hoses, while I was in there. Thanks for the video, very helpful!

I just completed this exact same job and it was super easy after watching your video. Thank you so much! I did find that you do not need to cut the green tie. You can fairly easily reach it from the under the car and just push the connector off. I did end up loosening the radiator support just to make it easier to remove the intake manifold. Removing the radiator support was really no big deal and made it MUCH easier. I did not see any reason to get a new gasket (o rings). THANK YOU AGAIN!

My mom has a CRV that recently took a dump in a parking lot at a store. Me, not wanting to work on it when the store was open, decided to wait to fix it until the store closed. They closed at 6 last night, so I got there at about 7. I finally left at about 12:30, but darn it we got her fixed. Thank you for the information in the video. What always gets me is either a bolt that won’t budge, or some dumb clip or something. When you work on a car and you think it will take an hour or two, plan out an extra couple hours just in case, because you might get unlucky like me. The extra trips to the house for stuff I needed, definitely didn’t help me get done any earlier

Very helpful video. Thank you! The hoses that you point out that leak at 3:25 are leaking coolant. Tip for others is to place a pan under the area since you don't want coolant leaking everywhere. Also, it was hard to get them to stop leaking. Might want to have some coolant available to top off after everything is put back together. To get the manifold out I also had to remove the large coolant hose. I have an '04 CR-V and it was slightly different than your model but this still worked.

Nicely done. Overall, the information contained here was invaluable. I approached the project with confidence and saved at least $350 (after deducting $300 for new tools).I hadn't done this kind for work in 60 years. The auto shop quoted me $650 to replace the starter in my 2002 CRV L-4. The dealer quoted $1,600. I just today began the process of dismantling, and this video has been invaluable, except for not showing the actual removal of the two starter mounting bolts. I just finished installing the (rebuilt) starter, and it's working fine. First, I want to emphasize is the extreme difficulty in removing (and re-installing) the two large mounting bolts holding the starter in place. Mine were torqued down to the max, and Loctite (or the equivalent) had been used. I had to run to O'Reilly's and buy a 2-ft 1/2"-drive breaker bar to u freeze these two bolts, and even after breaking them loose, it was tough getting them out with a 12"-drive ratchet. It was the same with replacing them. There wasn't a 1/8-inch to spare, so I did the best I could with just the ratchet. I would not recommend replacing a starter without a 2-ft long 1/2"-drive ratcheting breaker bar. I also highly recommend loosening the radiator supports for better access and using heavy-duty bungie cords to hold restrain the right-hand wiring harness and also on the left side to restrain the manifold, which I had left attached to the vacuum hose.

Great tutorial. I noticed that when ai did it today, you can avoid disconnecting 2/3 of the cables and hoses if you separate the throttle body from the manifold. You can then flip the manifold over and lay it on the upper part of the engine without disconnecting that completely. Of course I figured that out after completion. Thanks for a great video.

I disconnected the engine side of the top radiator hose also for more room. Your video was the easiest. The others took off way more than they had to. None of the videos addressed the cruise control. I must live in the only place where every car i work on has cruise, but it was no big deal. Also the reason that Honda puts that long bolt on the top of the starter on various models is so you can take the starter out from the bottom. But I decided to try it this way this time and it was easier and took me less time. THANKS!

Subscribed to your channel for your phone videos. And just by chance we own the same car and I needed to change the starter. Appreciate the video. Everything was fairly straight forward. Toughest parts were getting the intake manifold out of the car after everything was unattached. Had to slide it towards the right where the empty battery space was and then tilt and lift up. Second was getting the 17mm bolt off the starter. Bent a 3/8 ratchet. Then used a short 3/8 breaker bar with an addition of pvc pipe. I'm sure if I had a 18-25 inch breaker bar it would of made it a lot easier. Took the old starter out and connected it to a battery to see if it worked. Watched videos on youtube to see how to do this. Even though it spun and the gears slid forward it didn't really spin fast . Took the starter to Autozone, they have a machine to test starter and alternators when they are out of the car. It had 3 red fails come up. Got a Duralast remanufactured one, they gave me 20% off, which was being offered on their website but usually they don't give that in store. I asked them to test the one I was buying, didn't want to get home install everything to find out it didn't work. They said no problem. They hooked it up and it passed. Got home installed the new one. Reinstalled everything else. Tried to start the car and it started right up. Total cost $191 including tax. And a couple hours of time.

Great video - thank you. It was reassuring to see removing the manifold as an alternative method does not require too much disassembly. In addition to the great advice in this video I also recommend checking out Honda's Service manual section 9-2 on Intake Manifold Removal and Installation section. I went with something in between: 1. I removed the air box cover - more room for my hands to move 2. I left the IMT solenoid valve (minute 2:50) attached with its tubes to the valve position sensor and instead unscrewed the little phillips head screw from the back to release its bracket - fewer tubes to worry about 3. After the manifold was loose, I followed the advice to move towards the battery side and slowly tilt it up one port at a time. However, I laid up a slippery but tough rag on top of the upper radiator hose and all the wires I had pushed away from the front of the car - this helped protect the radiator hose as I was pushing down hard on it while trying to clear the (2x) tabs at the bottom of the manifold 4. I replaced the intake O-rings My car is '05 and has over 150k miles. While I was there I also replaced the alternator (extra 20min) and the PCV valve. Thanks again.

Much thanks to Jerry for an excellent video! Replaced the starter in our 04 CRV EX today. Took me the entire day, but I took my time - considering the temp outside was 98 degrees. Disconnected and removed the battery first. Removed the upper air intake duct next, unplugging the sensor and air flow tube as per Jerry's video. Disconnected all of the sensors from the throttle body intake, along with the various small hoses that are connected to it. Lost a lot of coolant from those two disconnected hoses underneath the throttle body intake. Refilled on reassembly. Labeled each connector and hose with it's corresponding connection. I had to do that because I knew I'd forget. Removed the upper radiator hose from the engine and kept it tilted upward to avoid coolant loss. Note: When reconnecting this hose to the engine, there is a small protruding nodule on the top of the nozzle where this upper radiator hose connects to the engine. Be careful not to push the upper radiator hose on too far as it will cover the nodule and create a coolant leakage - even with the clamp in place. Next, I removed the throttle body intake from the intake manifold (4 bolts). There are multiple connectors and hoses connected to the throttle body intake, top and bottom. On the 04 EX, there are two throttle cables that loop around and connect to the throttle body intake. I did not disturb these because I didn't want the hassle of adjusting the cables on reinstall. There is a lower air duct that runs from under the very front rail of the engine compartment and connects to another air duct that runs up into the bottom of the air filter assembly. If you remove this lower air duct (two bolts on the front rail and pull apart from adjoining air duct), you will create more space to work. I placed the disconnected throttle body intake with throttle cables attached and untouched over where the battery was, so as to afford myself room to remove the intake manifold. Disconnected the sensor connectors and hoses from the intake manifold, as per Jerry's video. Disconnected and removed the fuel injector power harness from just above the intake manifold, and turned it to the side. The intake manifold came off without a hitch. Just be careful because there are connections attached to the underside of it. Jerry covers them in his video. No gaskets or O-rings on mine. I covered both the intake openings on the manifold and the engine with Press N Seal food wrap, so as to not allow foreign matter or sweat to enter the engine. Once the intake manifold was out of the car, the starter was right there! Had to use a breaker bar for the 17mm and 14mm mounting bolts. It only took about 30 minutes total to remove the bad starter and replace it. The rest was removal and reassembly time, trying to remove hoses from connectors that have been there for 225,000 miles.. Just remember to double check your connectors and hoses and replace any lost coolant when putting it all back together, and you should be good to go! Note: If you experience a fluctuating idle when you start the vehicle, you probably missed a connector somewhere.

Thanks for writing all of that out! Its important for people to get more than one perspective. I'm glad you got it all fixed! If you lost a lot of coolant, keep an eye on your temp gauge for the next few weeks to make sure you dont have any bubbles in the lines. You should be ok though.

Hi Jerry. Your video was a great help. I just did this on my 2005 CRV and I am not sure I would have tried it without your guidance. Only minor difference for me was the Y hose you had on the left side of your manifold. Mine was a single tube. Also, I ended up taking off the plastic air intake that goes from the grill to the airbox, and taking off the long plastic cover over the radiator. Just to give more room. I did not take the manifold all the way out. I was able to swap starter by moving manifold to the far right near battery tray. Some of the hoses were tricky to back off and I too had to use a breaker bar to remove the 17mm bolt on the starter. Thank you very much for posting this how-to.

Jerry, Thank you for sharing this video. I am a mechanic hobbyist and I once in a while work on other people's cars to earn a few dollars on the side to help pay the bills (& beer). Anyway, this morning I got a call from a lady who wants me to replace the starter in her Honda CRV. When I found out that I have to replace the intake manifold to reach the starter, I had to turn down the job and referred her to a shop that I know that is honest. After watching your video, I felt that I should have accepted the job. It will take me about 3.5 hours (realistically) to complete the job but I would have earned a little bit today. Anyways, the next time I get a starter replacement job for a Honda CRV, I will definitely take it. Thank you again for sharing this repair video.

Thank you for watching! I myself watched a few honda CRV starter replacement videos before attempting my repair, and none of them did a very good job of explaining what was going on w/ the intake manifold. So hopefully my video helps more people out. Thanks for watching!

Update: Replaced starter on 2004 CRV and encountered some differences: I ended up having to remove the throttle body attached to the intake manifold. My throttle body has throttle cables attached which project forward, causing a problem with removing everything together. I also detached the upper radiator hose after removing the plastic trim piece over the radiator (called bulkhead cover in the Factory Service Manual). After removing the throttle body/cable assembly and radiator hose, I was able to slide the intake manifold toward the right but never completely removed it, but it was enough for me to access the starter ok. The FSM says to remove the bulkhead (T-shaped frame whose horizontal frame runs above the radiator and a vertical support in the middle) to remove the intake manifold, but I did not do that. If you want to COMPLETELY remove the intake manifold, I think removing the bulkhead would be necessary. I replaced the starter with a new one (not rebuilt) from Amazon Prime for $82. Another option to save more money would be to rebuild the starter yourself after buying the brush kit for under $20 on ebay.

Excellent video! This is the way to go..i have a 2004 2.4 I seperated the throttle body with cables by removing four bolts then swung it out of the way. i thought about removing the studs then I figured it out. It comes out by the battery side kind of lower left side while coming up against right radiator hose. The starter came out and new one replaced in minutes. Like the video said it takes two hours. If I did it again I could do it in much less. Thanks
