Great step by step video. I needed to remove my reservoir and could not do it without this video.

+Suresh Parekh Thank you for your feedback! We are happy we could help.

Thank you for taking the time and helping in fighting inflation by avoiding overpriced dealerships. Please note that the two bumper 10mm screws are difficult to remove for some and difficult to reinstall, so allow enough time. I had to access mine through the wheel cover and still gave me a hard time

Excellent, this is a great tutorial - thank you for saving me almost $300 to have a mechanic change mine out!

@@1AAuto I would have bought the part from you but fortunately after taking it apart it was just a split hose. But 1A Aouto Parts is now on my Favorites list.

[@jatablue]

Gotta love that you have to remove 128 bolts/screws, and take off the whole front end just to get to a washer fluid tank. Brilliant design Honda. LOL

[@rdharris77012]

Wow, thanks so much, I knew it was a long process but not that long. Now I feel I can attempt this. Washer reservoir has been leaking for a while. Thanks again

[@shadwell749]

Did you fix it.Mine ia leaking too

[@girlthewonderdog8763]

....INCREDIBLE !!! TAKING THE WHOLE BUMPER AND LIGHT ASEMBLY OFF...FOR A WASHER RESEVIOUR?

[@rstone901]

Brilliant video! I have a washer leak from the opposite side to the reservoir, but I will now know how to get at the leaking pipe, many thanks

[@jerrydagna2584]

GREAT JOB...SO GENTLE AND PATIENT. I CAN DO THIS NOW

[@geraldoyo1]

Perfectly done and explained! Thank you so much!

[@jackierudd6264]

I've just taken my car to the garage with a problem with my washer bottle, he said they need to remove the bumper to find out what's gone wrong ....... l booked it in thinking "WHAT ! remove the bumper Just to repair a washer bottle" 😕 after watching this video I'm terrified how much it's going to cost me !! but at least i understand what's involved now and it's not just an easy fix. Thanks for helping me to understand what is involved and now I'm prepared better when the bill comes 😊

+Jackie Rudd Thanks for the comments and watching!

Thank you so much for this video! The dealer wanted $500.00 to do this.

I have an 08 that keeps losing washer fluid so I suspect I have a cracked tank, bad grommet or a bad hose or something else but I need to have a look. Your video was perfect! It showed exactly how to get to the washer fluid tank and do the repair. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

[@yendorofny]

Holy cow! Remember when the reservoir was in plain sight and rarely needed replacing?

[@rajibroy04]

Detailed, but concise video. 1A Auto is my go to channel for DIY instructions. Keep up the good work! Wondering if the process is roughly same for Honda CRV 2012 to 2016?

[@samuelhammondcoble420]

i need to know the same thing! bummer no one has replied yet

[@faccielylarsergie4589]

Exelente , es lo que estaba buscando , gracias, saludos desde Monterrey México

[@armandeus]

Excellent video, I have a CRV 2010 and I think the windshield bump is damage

While it seems like a lot it really isnt that bad as long as you have a little bit of handiness and take a little time. I had to do this procedure twice short of replacing the reservoir . This was due to an accident the car was in and the delay in getting the painted bumper shipped to us (was min of 3 months to get repairs done by a shop and at 4 times my total costs). So I fixed the existing bumper so it was drivable off the truck. When the bumper came I did this entire procedure again along with the new reservoir. Mind you after an accident the bumper came on and off pretty easily so Id say for most this isnt too hard to complete.

[@1AAuto]

+Wideglide 215 Thanks for the feedback!

[@kwabenaaffum8684]

Just press and wash the windscreen until water is completely out duh

[@f.f.iskandar]

Isnt it gonna leak on the upper hose right on the rubber grommet if you fill it up to the top?

[@avinashbalkissur979]

Do you have any videos on how to change the fuel filter on a 2007 honda crv petrol Thanks

[@ncooty]

Good grief. In order to change the blinkers, do you have to drop the transmission?

[@KarrieFord]

Lol... no. But you will need to rebuild the engine and disassemble the rear end.

[@1AAuto]

+Karrie Ford Thanks for checking us out! 1AAuto.com

[@shadwell749]

You should try changing the reverse light.You need to take front and back seats out,drop the gas tank along with removing the exhaust,then you take the driver side doors off along with the steering wheel.Then you have to take your midget out of the trunk and he will finish the job.

[@amazinggrace6362]

Hi Wats the cost of the spare...container and the pump and the installation charges

[@jheffryflores426]

We only need the 10mm socket or another one too?

[@ybrik5937]

Last weekend I topped up with washer fluid. Then couple of days later it was a -20C overnight. In the morning, there's dripping of front right wheel. What else could it be @ -20C....washer fluid! I just removed the fender cover underneath and peeked, there's ton of it, still full. So the portion that dripped out is from the top half of the reservoir joined by the rubber grommet. I suspect it had become brittle temporarily at extreme cold temperatures. Good for now....

[@jefflapitan2091]

Mine is CRV 2002. Wonder if it is somehow the same. Great vid, more power!

@@1AAuto is it the same process with my model?

[@FriscoKiB]

Thank you.

[@michaelgordy6283]

Hi. Great video!!!! I have an 08' Honda crv and one of the ports broke off somehow. The 2 ports that the rubber hoses plugs into. One of them broke off. I've owned the car about a year now and never knew it until now. I thought I was just low in fluid. Can you buy that part separately? The reservoir look to be ok. Hope to hear from you soon. Thanks. Mike

[@higherfordkid1625]

This is pretty awful design from Honda. On most of the cars I have owned the bottle and pump are accessible by removing the wheel arch trim after putting the front wheel on full lock or removing it. I have a drip from my 2008 but I think it can stay as it is for now after watching your excellent video.

[@annstillwell730]

No wonder it's so expensive to have it done.

[@joseleiton]

Jesus! I don't like how Honda made maintenance a pain. Not only fit this but alternator change... Thank you though

[@prymass]

Do you have a vid on the same thing but CR-V mk 2? Or anyone here can send me a link?

Just take a simple water pupm and pump out all the water easily no need this much heavy work . You are removing the water not replacing the tank ✌️

[@rikisalsa2]

Thanks

[@1AAuto]

+riki salsa You're welcome!

[@Eddie2425]

Would this apply to a 2004 as well?

[@1AAuto]

+Eddie J The installation process should be very similar for this year as well.

[@jheffryflores426]

How can i change the hose it broke for my vat

[@jheffryflores426]

Car*

[@ashton35]

I'd probably put a straw in the broken part and put the hoses on the straw then tape it Or order the lines if you want to do it for real

[@ashton35]

For something like this that doesn't build pressure, you can tape/rig something Anything more serious and it should be done properly

[@ellemacz]

What braniac designed this that you have to take a whole car apart to replace a plastic jug?? Yikes! Out of my pay grade.
