Just changed control arms out in 2010

[@rafamustafa]

Thank you so much for your great information. What year is this CRV? What is the best year range for this type of CRV? I want one!

2006 Chrysler Town & Country T.E. 3.8L V-6: Just crossed 296K miles! Last year I had a misfiring cylinder. Instead of fancy repair work, I simply asked the mechanic to install 6 Bosch Platinum Plus plugs and new wires (I ordered through Rock Auto ;) ) ...and immediately it ran like it was new again! Hasn't misfired since, and the original power is nearly restored. Keep changing that oil!

[@Novaah803]

My Civic Si has a similar engine I’m at 150K hoping to be at 400K someday.

[@nightriderjazz1837]

You just may get it. My 98 Accord is currently a little over 329k

[@cvega359cv]

change your oil every 3 to 4 thousand miles and k20 and m14 engine easy go over half million live I have on my accord.

[@alexanderkingtickle]

what year is your Si? i had an ‘11 and it recently died but it made it to 300k miles!

[@jaynikk758]

@@cvega359cv agreed, I always change the oil in my 03 Camry every 4k miles with Mobile 1 Full Synthetic, it has 210k miles and I put about 50k miles a year on it, oil is cheap compared to another car !

[@i23intheplace2b]

My first car was a 1999 civic Si bought in 2002. It was heavily abused and didn't last 100k. Teenagers. Second car was a 1998 4 cyl accord coupe with 140k bought for $4k in '05. Drove it to 270k and sold it for $1500, 5 years later. Now I'm on a 05 ridgeline with 260k. It's comfortable, handles like a car, and I'm not looking for a replacement.

[@arrinagreek6369]

Hey Scotty, there is a white 2007 CRV named Lorraine who got to the million mile mark with only timely maintenance. The owner travels the state of Kentucky for his living. Just go to KZbin and watch Lorraine come up to million miles on her odometer. I have 140,xxx on my 2007 CRV. I plan to keep mine even after it hits the million mile mark.

[@DrewJmsn]

Wife's '09 CRV at 120k miles had its first engine light ever a couple weeks ago, P2646, an oil pressure / VTEC issue. All advice pointed to changing out the VTEC solenoid which I did (simple job but PITA to get to). The car was good for a day then set the same code again. Trouble is it goes into limp mode at 3k RPMs, gotta do something about it. Trying to figure out my next move. Fortunately we have a driving school so there are other cars she can use, but we want to get this one usable again! Then one of these days when she gets a different car we'd like to turn this CRV into a training car for the school. It's been a great car and aside from MPG it would be an excellent training car.

[@stevenlutch9778]

I had a 2007 Pontic Vibe ( Same as a Toyota Matrix) Gave it to my son in law in 2019 with 170K Miles . It now has about 185 K miles . Just had the oil changed and it is still running down the road no worries .

[@ShamuAquatics]

Honda USED TO make the best engines. These new 1.5 liter turbo engines are a disgrace

[@yodamaster757]

Agreed :/ but consumers in America wanted batter gas mileage 🤷🏼‍♂️ so that’s sadly what we got. Plus American politicians freak out about climate change

[@nofd1977]

That new SI is a disgrace

[@TeslaRules1856]

Well at least you can still get Honda models with the standard 2.0 liter engines as well.

[@Nikkk6969]

Not just Honda, about every new American vehicle is made like a pos now because of liberals stupidly strict regulations and restrictions of vehicle emissions.

[@bretthansen8166]

That’s why I bought my 2020 Civic Sport Sedan with the 2.0 naturally aspirated port injected motor and manual transmission. That k20c2 motor is bulletproof, and doesn’t have the problems the direct injection turbo 1.5 motors have.

[@AuburnMist]

I worked with a lady back in the nineties who had an 1985 Chevy s10 with standard transmission which she bought new..it had over 900 thousand kilometres on it when she gave it to her son..original motor and clutch…good luck getting a chev to do that today..lol

[@show_me_your_kitties]

I just bought an 85 s-10 yesterday with 130,000. It drives like a dream!

[@orlandoandrade1616]

Some great advice in this one Scotty 👌🙌

[@benjaminknotts745]

Bought an 05 for 1000 Ran good, needed new suspension, shocks, struts, L axle and brakes Just got the transmission fluid changed out and I have a good feeling it’ll double 170k

[@dolrichlorenzo3004]

I have 2011 honda crv same engine regular change oil runs like a clock 🥰

[@mikejenkins4598]

Scotty I had 2 one ton Chevy trucks that pulled trailer and tractor weighing around 10 to 12000 lbs around for over 10 years both had well over 400000 miles.

[@manpan4693]

Yeah Chevy is underated

[@jron20r51]

Now those are the videos that made you a star. Good one scotty

[@john5389]

455K is promising. Purposely bought a 1998 Honda Odyssey for the fam in Ohio in '13, now only have 230k. Has been excellent, just changed the original alternator and radiator, that's it. Put in a can of Seafoam every other oil change. I think the engine actually runs stronger and smoother than when I picked it up! Love this van and the four doors. That rust though...!!

[@Brycereigle2000]

I have one of those. Best car i've owned to date. It just works. Nothing more or less. AWD is a nice feature to have. Only things to look out for is AC Compressor failure, door lock actuators will fail, (not a bad DIY job), do the valve adjustment at 100,000 miles and change ATF every 30,000 miles.

[@davechupp7922]

Scotty. That was another interesting video with a wealth of information.

[@chriswrerup]

That is insane! 800,000 KM! My CRV only has 145,000 KM (approx 90,000 miles) Great video Scotty…. Well done. Fan from Canada!

[@tigranmelconyan5562]

Honda got it so right with the CR-V

[@samusaran7317]

True. Sadly its not practical for everyone

[@jptaylor]

Except for that oil dilution on the ‘17-‘19 ones. Deal breaker.

[@frasiec]

Except, yuck it’s a crv

[@nickx8411]

simple and effective test tips... thank you, Scotty! :-)

[@ysooyaalka6172]

Scotty I put my 2008 Town and Country 650,335 miles with the same original Engine and transmission. Never had any issues with the Engine or transmission.

[@Jm-rh1tu]

Great info Scotty!

I have 3 accords and a odyssey with combined mileage over 1,200,000 miles.

Your awesome Scotty!!!

[@johnjohnston9661]

We have a 2011 C-RV we bought new that has 220,000+ miles on it. Still runs great and easy to work on. Just replaced the coil packs and sparkplugs - about a 20 minute job. Interior is still like new (garage kept) and paint still shines when it's washed. I hope to put at least 500,000 on it. Averages 27 mpg. Just take care of these Hondas - routine oil changes and maintenance - and they just keep going and going.

[@TRENLORD]

I have an ‘07 CR-V with 225k miles. Drives perfectly with minimal maintenance. Replaced the starter last year (was original), and recently had to replace the power steering rack, and alternator. As long as you keep fresh oil, it’s perfect.

[@invaderzim1265]

Is it a 4 or 6 cylinder? Which 2.0 or 4.0 liters?

[@austinburley888]

Them 2.4L four cylinders are excellent engines them and 1.8L are the best engines in my opinion. They truly are all in one type engines. 455,000 miles is an incredible amount. I don’t think it will hit a million miles. At least not without a new transmission and some internal engine work. Other components will go bad also, suspension and features etc. However, he definitely got his money’s worth.

[@ThomasJGuitar]

I actually own the exact same car! It’s on 190K miles and runs great! Glad to know I can push it to 400 at least!😂

[@NO-END]

Me too mine is a 2008 at 168000 miles runs great. Have to change rear differential fluid every 20000 miles. Replace steering ignition switch last year and drain and fill transmission fluid and change transmission filter it was rusted and changed coolant last month love it.

[@rafamustafa]

That's great! What year is your vehicle?

[@ThomasJGuitar]

​@@rafamustafa Mine is a 2008. I got it for $5000 in 2019 with 175K miles. I was planning on driving it to 300K miles. Now I'm considering 400 and beyond! haha

@@ThomasJGuitar Mine is 2008 as well paid $6000 for it with 160000 miles in 8/19. I also have 2019 Accord Sport 1.5T manual and 2012 accord with the same 2.4 Vtec engine I bought that one for my girl. I'm a Honda Fan lol.

@@NO-END Heck yeah! I'm doubt I'll buy anything other than Honda/Acura. Sounds like you're set lol

[@vonzen]

I still have my 05 crv with original everything. The only thing i changed was the tires. It has 209,000 miles already. It’s my daily driver and my work horse.

[@JamEZ87]

I drive for Uber in my 2007 Toyota Camry LE with 166K miles and twice I had customers telling me to turn the AC down because it was getting too cold. This is in a near 100 degree weather with dew points in the 70s. Love it.
