Oil Change on a 2016 Honda CRV

GO
GOint
I hope this helps others do some basic but really important car maintenance for themselves. Take no short cuts and be sure to use all the proper safety equipment. I for one forgot to wear safety glasses! Different tools can be used for the job so know how to use YOUR tools safely.
Going to the dealer is time consuming and waiting is not one of my strengths. The quick oil change shops cost more and their upselling verges on criminal.
Enjoy the road to being more self sufficient and saving a little money.

Thanks. I need to build my tool stash.

[@LadybugAdventures]

Once you build your collection, you'll see that you end up saving more money than you spent with each subsequent service that you are able to do.

[@DH-mf2lv]

Thank you

Thank you. Hope it helped!

[@Idunthevalkyrie]

neat was that a mustache I saw or a bit of exuberant oil on your lip :-) an interesting way to recycle old pizza boxes too cheers

[@LadybugAdventures]

Ha! My facial hair is so bad that most people think it is dirty engine oil! Nothing goes to waste in this house!

[@Idunthevalkyrie]

@@LadybugAdventures LOL cheers buddy

[@frankfromupstateny3796]

Perfect

[@LadybugAdventures]

Thanks. Glad to be able to help.

Nice one

[@LadybugAdventures]

Thanks.

[@xingguozhang5475]

Thanks lot

[@Stephiscool444]

I love this video, thank you so much. Do you have to start your vehicle before checking the dip stick level?

[@LadybugAdventures]

I usually start it to make sure things are running and there's no leaks. Then I wait a minute to make sure the oil settles down before you check the dipstick.

[@Stephiscool444]

@@LadybugAdventures thank you!!!

[@LadybugAdventures]

@@Stephiscool444 no problem glad to help it anyway!

[@ChestZeroeski]

Thanks!!!!

[@LadybugAdventures]

No problem! Glad to help in anyway

[@march7852]

Could you tell me the part number of the crush washer and filter oil please .

[@LadybugAdventures]

Sorry I don't have those part numbers. I had and insanely hard time finding the size of the crush washers. In the end I just went to my Honda dealership and bought some of the crush washers. If you have any questions like that I would just call up a Honda dealership and get the part numbers from them.

[@waynemaxwell5270]

Great, concise video! I will add that my CRV sucked up every bit of my 5 quart bottle!! (I must've let it drain too long?)

[@LadybugAdventures]

Thank you and I don't think that it's possible to let it drain too long. It must have been very hungry!

[@waynemaxwell5270]

One last thing: at the 4:30 mark, I saw that you upgraded your battery. Can I ask why? (and what you referenced to make this change?) Thanks in advance!

[@LadybugAdventures]

Honestly I do not remember changing the battery.

[@noroar3258]

does your oil smell like gas when you check it (dipstick sniff) . The gen 5 crv's are having oil dilution problems but I think your 2016 (as well as mine) which have Direct injection also suffer from it as well but to a lesser extent . My 2016 runs great btw but for whatever reason dipstick / oil cap smalls like gas.

[@LadybugAdventures]

I don't think it smells like gas. Just regular engine oil smell.

[@lenbata]

I think he has the 2.4L earth dream engine... the 1.5L earth dream engine that has the oil dilution

[@lenbata]

Can you link the site where you got the measuring cup?

[@LadybugAdventures]

Princess auto here in Ontario.

[@BroZachD7]

Thanks for the tutorial! Do you put the new crush washer on the oil plug?

[@LadybugAdventures]

Yes I always do.

[@BroZachD7]

Cool thank you!

[@jacobsmith8644]

Is there an alternative to a torque wrench, whould a ratchet work?

[@LadybugAdventures]

There are other torque sockets you use on a regular ratchet. I like to keep with the torque specs when I can.

[@davidjalloul3108]

Isn't there a splash cover for the engine???

[@LadybugAdventures]

There wasn’t anything there on my car. Mine is the base model LX with AWD. Maybe it’s different between trim levels?

[@worldpeace5853]

Can I put 5W-20 instead of 0W-20?

[@LadybugAdventures]

I always stick with the manufacturers recommendation.

[@mustang73648]

Save at least $30 if you do it by yourself.

[@No2clarinet]

I can’t believe I’ve been paying $100 and waiting 2hrs for a job that takes maybe 20 minutes 😳

[@DerrickCuffie]

Same😂😂😂😂 My wife has this car and I did my Chevy Malibu today. Can't believe I used to schedule this and wait all that time smh

[@juanmedina-tm8ty]

0w20 oil?

[@LadybugAdventures]

Yes 0w20

[@juanmiranda4100]

Come on man the video is to darkest

[@DH-mf2lv]

You didn't say how much oil it takes and how often to change?

[@LadybugAdventures]

At 3:38 I have it on the screen. 4.6qts or 4.4 L. The maintenance minder let's you know. It goes off every 10,000 Km.

[@juanmiranda4100]

I can't see this video is too darkest

[@tejiendoelfuturo]

Eres mudo?

[@LadybugAdventures]

Si

[@waynemaxwell5270]

I'd also like to add that your video doesn't show you removing the chocks behind the rear wheels. If someone follows videos "step-by-step" like I do they might try to backup "unsuccessfully" like I just about did!! 🙄

[@LadybugAdventures]

I still do that as well!

[@manuelmolina2385]

Hey easy off with the music jus get to the point buddy

[@LadybugAdventures]

Got it. Yeah I probably overdid it with the music. I followed up with a transmission fluid change with no music!

[@owenzmortgage8273]

Not clear video, useless

[@LadybugAdventures]

Sorry
