How to replace a differential dynamic dampener in a 97-01 Honda CR-V

[@kellymurphystl]

The new part was installed upside-down. I has a key that inserts into the receiving part that locates it in the correct orientation.

[@joelatwar]

In the one year follow up video I’ll have to turn it around

[@bluetorch13]

Hey! I just noticed that you installed it upside-down! that notch on the left of the screw matches the tongue on the side of the nut on the damper, making the 2 rubber "teeth" face up. (to make even less sense)

[@nkosanalamborghini7890]

This video has really helped me brother. I have been wondering what’s causing the vibrations whenever I turn and I just checked and found that the dumpener is loose and almost falling out. I’m gonna head over to the Honda dealership and buy one.

I have used the advice presented in this video to successfully replace my differential dynamic dampener.

[@zoejay]

Make sure you didn't install it upside down.

[@orricon8528]

@@zoejay It's ok, I flipped the car upside down as well and now it works fine.

Hey thx bro i need to do this for the technical control you helped me a lot in just 3min

[@Ashley-lb9jz]

Aaaah wicked ive just bought one and mine was just like yours. Had no clue what it was haha

[@anthonypecoraro7738]

Good video, nice sounding exhaust system (what manufacturer?)

[@joelatwar]

The muffler is Megan Racing. The rest is custom fabbed.

Nice

I have a 2000 crv AWD and I’m getting bad vibrations while accelerating. I looked at my differential and there is no damper on mine. Just a nut on the left side of the mount. I’m wondering if the damper was possibly removed. That would be odd because that means a person would have to source the correct bolt, because the damper has a bolt fixed to it. Somebody please help me understand.

[@joelatwar]

Vibration while accelerating could be something else. That’s an issue I’m currently wrestling with. The dampener deals with vibrations while turning but it couldn’t hurt to get a new one and install it

[@bluetorch13]

I need explanations on how it freaking works, its floating! I though I installed mines wrong, and it actually doesn't touch anything.

[@joelatwar]

Yeah it just sort of sits there right? I guess it absorbs vibrations all the same.

[@luisv7352]

It should be mounted with the two tabs facing up!

[@dannynica7480]

you installed the new part the wrong way, You had to turn it the other way

[@christinaphillips5933]

Thank you lam learning so much about my 97crv ! Some things lam sure l can fix myself ! I just need to man to loosen the bolt's !

[@gabrielr6679]

Did it make a noise while reversing like a squeaking sound?

[@joelatwar]

I had that at one point but it went away with topping off the fluid - but I hear that can be a symptom of a bad dampener.

[@gabrielr6679]

@@joelatwar do you mean the dampener that you replaced

[@joelatwar]

Yes

[@chrisyoutubetv9841]

Rear diff. For gen1 ans gen2 is the same ?t.y.

[@joelatwar]

Gen 2 is a K series engine and the diff is different

[@grpAfactory]

@@joelatwar not quite, only difference is better clutch pack. 97-06 CRV and Element all the way to 2011 are ALL the same rear differential. cross-reference the honda part number.

[@grpAfactory]

Gen 2 has a better clutch pack, but is otherwise identical.

My i know what brand cordless use

[@жизньвроссии-ч9ф]

Зачем он нужен?для чего какую роль играет?

[@joelatwar]

In order to solve a grinding/rubbing noise when you turn coming from the rear end

[@seanross1589]

Is your car a manual or automatic? I don't think the damper is for the automatics from factory, but I've heard people still installing them anyway. I have an automatic and there is no evidence of it ever having one whatsoever.

[@joelatwar]

Mine is manual

[@seanross1589]

@@joelatwar thanks for the response!

[@halfertyadventures9145]

Sean did you ever install this on your automatic? I’m thinking of putting one on my son’s automatic because he is getting a weird noise when turning sharp

[@seanross1589]

​​@@halfertyadventures9145 I did not. After doing more research, and just trusting the Honda engineers lol, I really don't think it's supposed to be used on the automatic transmission versions. If he's getting a clunking nosir from the back I would check the sway bar end links. I would also check the differential mounts (the rubber is often broken) that's on the top of the differential If you do end up putting it on his though, I'd be interested to hear how it goes.
