My nan loves her CRV, she is Italian and therefore never wrong

[@markmcgrath9098]

This a universal truth, probably of all grandmothers.

[@NightmareDealer]

No interest in buying this car but I can’t stop watching these vids. You guys are going great, love it 🍻

[@ReDriven]

Thanks so much mate!

[@ben7020]

I had this model, excellent car. I had the previous shape, also excellent.

[@absolute_abundance]

Buy it to find out what you have been missing

[@andrewd7586]

Adam I bought my mates 2nd hand 2003 CRV Sport (at trade price!🤭). He & his wife had it from new. Serviced its entire life with Honda I bought it with almost 200,000km on it for my then teenage kids to learn in. I only sold it some two years ago to my daughters boyfriend. It’s now nudging around 300,000km & doesn’t leak a drop of oil. I had only two issues with it. A left hand rear wheel bearing & the indicator stalk which I got dirt cheap from a Honda wrecker & fitted myself. I still say to my kids & daughter’s boyfriend, it was one of the best cars I’ve owned. For practicality, yep loved that picnic table, the fold down console & ease to drive & live with, a bloody fantastic little runabout!👍🏼😎

[@justjoe8303]

My wife had one of these for 12 years, sports version with cruise, sunroof and colour coded exterior. It was the best car we have ever owned. The auto gearbox was replaced under warranty due to a torque converter fault, but apart from that, the only things that were replaced were tyres, brake pads and rear struts. We traded it in with 249000kms on it and it still never used a drop of oil between 10000km service intervals. We found it very comfortable and loved driving it. They don't make them like that anymore.

[@heinschwartz7941]

My wife and I took one of these around Namibia and Botswana in 2023. Almost 15000km of mostly offroad and sand - no drama’s and really easy to live with. Came back to Oz and bought one 👍

[@nolongeramused8135]

I remember when the 4WD kicked in for the first time during a really bad snowstorm going over Lookout pass (Montana/Idaho border). When I got down to Spokane a few hours later and the snow was really deep my little 2002 CR-V just plowed through it like it was nothing. I've decided I'm keeping it and started shoehorning in upgrades after running it almost completely stock for over 20 years.

[@kalemuncher9425]

Got a 3rd gen CRV myself and honestly these cars are utterly fantastic, cute trick they have too is that you can remove the headrests in the front seats and fold them down flat into the rear seats to make a psuedo flat chair/bed. Excellent little car

[@Carpysi-zz8ge]

At last, some gen 2 CRV love.

[@glennyj65]

I just bought a 2004 AWD from our mechanic at work. It's my first Honda and I'm rather blown away by the driveability of it. It's one of the best driving vehicles I've driven. Over my years I went from a 65' Ford Fairlane (not a 64 or a 66, this was the year you couldn't find parts for it), more Fords, some Chevy's, Buick, Plymouth, Toyotas, and even a Saab (I know why they call them saab stories, lol). I can best describe my CR-V as the perfect vehicle for a youngster to take his/her drive test in. Visibility is awesome! Now to be honest, when I was driving it home after buying it, about 15 minutes down the road, the power fell out and I had to limp it the rest of the way. It threw a code for the spooler valve- which was an easy fix- changed the oil using 10W30 fully synthetic and an OEM Honda filter. Cleared the code and runs like a raped ape again. You don't wanna race anyone in one of these, but that's because they're known for their low end torque (K24) and they pack a lot of torque! I also had to replace a caliper and the master cylinder. Since I did all the work myself, the total bill is still less than $200. At 216,002 miles for only $2500 I think I did better than fine. Used cars are a great way to save a chunk IF you can handle most of the work yourself.

[@TomCramond]

An unbelievable car. My 2006 Sport model has a sunroof, leather seats, heated seats and a TON of space in the front and the back. People are always amazed that it's nearly 20 years when they get in. I bloody love it!

[@ChoccyThunder117]

I've been waiting for this video, finally! My '04 CRV is still going good at 313,000km. Very reliable.

[@jacobparamus1229]

What mechanical issues did you notice?

[@siddhantchitre6817]

Mine is going strong at 380K kms! @redriven, I started following your channel because you guys talked sense and told the truth about all cars without bias. Seeing that you personally own and drive the CRV, I now have more respect for you👍 You guys are doing a great job. Keep it up!

[@mattdebyl8806]

Knew it had to be yours AK. You’d never treat another person’s car like that. What a little nugget. These things are great! Much contemplated that these are the perfect 5th or 10th car for car enthusiasts that just need a nugget that does everything with little care.

[@lachlannicholls827]

Just replaced the original clutch on mine after 340,000 k's. Never had a single mechanical fault & it's a great drive in a manual. Sooo much practicality (looks better with body coloured bumper). Way better imo than the bloated practicality compromising curves of todays designs.

[@YuryYav]

These were the true “SUV”. Pity they don’t make them like that any longer.

[@austinado16]

Great video, and always fun to see a model from another country! I just purchased a dead '05 EX with manual 5spd transmission 7 months ago. I paid $1,200 for it. 271,000mi on it at the time of purchase, 1 owner. It had been sitting for 3yrs due to a failed starter. It cost $16 for a starter rebuild kit on Amaz 0n. I can do my own wrench spinning, so I did all the service work to it, had the broken windshield replaced, then had the roof and bonnet/hood repainted. I love the silly thing, and I think it's the best car I've every owned. It's a good idea to adjust the valves on them, because the exhaust valves tend to loose their adjustment gap, and then you risk having a valve burning because it doesn't cool well. Mine were all tight. They're prone to the front bushing in the lower front control arms being torn away, and the bushings in the upper rear adjustable tie rods being compressed sideways. These 2 issues create tire alignment issues, and the front control arms will clunk and pop as you make a turn in and out of a driveway ramp. Both are easily replaced, and then have a 4 wheel alignment done. Having a quality set of shocks on them will return the ride to being very nice, so spend up on good shocks. It's worth the extra. They'll run better if you put a can of SeaFoam in the fuel tank, and let that clean the injectors and the backs of the intake valves. Not a bad idea to do this once a year. I purchased mine solely as a road trip tool, and it's been absolutely fantastic.

[@rickylo880911]

I’ve been waiting for this video haha. Had a 2006 Sport in Cosmic Grey (best colour for the CR-V/CL9 imo) with a 5 speed manual transmission and full leather interior. It was clean. Learned how to drive manual in it, unfortunately got hit by a roo and totalled it after only a month of owning it. I didn’t have the funds to fix it :( I miss it so much so I did what any normal person would do. I went and got another one! This time a 2005 in Silver, also with a 5 speed manual transmission. It has been my daily for almost a year now. It has been reliable to say the least. With almost 300,000km on the odometer now and the K24 is still going strong. The only things that break for me are the light bulbs lol. Recently had to replace the A/C compressor tho.

[@slugmuffin6935]

Just bought a 2004 last week with 111,000 miles on it, runs really nice paid 4000 for it. watching this makes me feel good about the purchase.

[@chuckman000007]

I love my CRV, it can go a lot of places you think it couldn't go and it has everything i need including heated seats, sunroof and even automatic climate control with an automatic gearbox. I just passed 370000 km and still going strong 💪🏽

[@davemaher6267]

This is my daughters first car, best $1k ever spent. The space in these are amazing

[@dedanmunyao9981]

I've been waiting for this review for a while. Glad to see it here. Congratulations on your purchase. It's a fantastic choice.

[@HorsePerfect]

Fantastic review! I love my CRV for so many reasons mentioned in this video! Had a oil leak when we first got it and it was a $3 part that fixed it completely. Reliable and practical. The fact that you ended up buying it is legendary!

[@brucenicolle4019]

Haha, no wonder you were throwing out the ash tray and pulling out the side light. Great video, we had a 1st Gen CRV, it also had the column auto, table and cup holders in the front and of course the picnic table. 🙂

[@aussieveteransoutdoors]

Just got my first gen CRV. Love it.

[@brickwall7723]

I put down a deposit on one of those beauties just today. It had one owner with a great service history. Hell, it even looks great for its age because the original owner kept in a garage. I even got a mechanic to give her the once over. I'm looking forward to driving my CRV if the pre-purchase inspection tells me its worth it. 😊

[@paddymunday6420]

Bought one for $2,000 a few months ago at 410,000 k's, use it for pizza delivery in a rural town with lots of dirt roada. Now on 450,000 k's and have'nt spent a dollar on it apart from tyres so far. Prooving pretty bulletproof

[@kataboscongo5064]

Just bought one 04 model two months ago with 29000 kms on in almost new condition drives really good very practical vehicle love it

[@partsbinaudi1335]

My partner drove one for a while, from roughly 200,000 to 260,000, I did all the maintenance. This thing was neglected, not serviced (it did 30,000km on an oil change before I picked up on it), and the motor was very strong, however all the shock absorbers, thermo fans, radiator, intake air hose, ball joints and tie rods were all screwed. It had a slow coolant leak after to add to that, very noisy a/c compressor, quite heavy on fuel and major oil leaks from engine. I would definitely recommend a good example, but a crap one will be mechanically totalled in parts and labour costs to get it up to scratch.

[@matthewgray3375]

Lack of oil changes on the k24 will adventually reward you with a timing change replacement, it will tell you when it's ready when the engine light comes on and the code is for the sensor. Awesome engines, combined my 2 k24 powered cars have done over 800k. Looked after they do just go

[@fortheloveyoutube]

You guys are so good, thank you! We just bought a 1-owner 2005 CRV SE with 225k miles, and we are still trying to figure out how it still looks and drives like a new car. The first owners teared up when we paid them and drove it home. We will fix sway bar links, but other than that, it needs nothing. That's right, nothing!

[@ReDriven]

Amazing! Glad to hear it's going great!

[@irateeverything351]

I just bought this car a couple days ago, but in america. Man this right hand drive overview is actually making me dizzy

[@nagisaian]

Who ever decided to add a picnic table was a genius

[@np4029]

The real genius move is making a new floor out of wood and mdf and keeping the picnic table when you sell the car.

[@TF23DayRespawn]

2:08 post facelift 2nd gen crv is easily the best looking suv out there and there has not been a single car in existence that has changed my mind on that

[@jensissons5709]

Just bought one in Uk. Fitted a 2024 screen which came with 2005 mount. Fitted perfect so now i have hands free phone, internet, dash cam etc. All plug and play fitted myself .

[@steveorr]

I had a mint condition super low km 04 prefacelift before I got t-boned & written off… best everyday car, insanely reliable and practical, whack on a set of accord sport 17’s and it looks great The rear differential shudder is 99.9% of the time caused by people using cheap aftermarket oil… grab genuine honda diff oil, flush it twice & fill and the problems gone. You can take the headrests off the front seats, move them forward and lay them down flat and they’ll line up with the rear seat perfectly for a makeshift bed (bit uncomfortable for us taller guys but will do for an overnight camp) That cavernous pocket in the console, in Japan/UK it’s a cooler box that the aircon vents into to keep cans cold, I snagged one off eBay and it was awesome Grab some side steps from a wrecker to make it look a bit beefier (and match the nudge bar) That drivers arm rest with the pocket is a genuine accessory, normally they just have the small one like the passenger seat The centre tray drops down with a lever so you can walk through to the back seats (your arm rest pocket blocks the normal access), the cup holders on the centre tray are too shallow for 600ml coke bottles and slurpee cups from 7-11 so there’s a guy on Etsy called CustomCupHolders who makes 3D inserts for them, they work amazingly If you happen to plan on installing eBay special fog light kits for these, the dash switch is the wrong size, so I grabbed a brand new oem switch & connector (never got around to installing before the crash so if you want it come grab it from pyrmont haha) Now I really miss my old crv and carsales searching for another one… thanks a lot AK 😅

[@whatisthematter88]

Love the video. I'm proud of my 2003 CRV. It still got less than 170,000km till now. My dad bought it in 2014.

[@nicholasgenethliou6281]

I've been waiting for this one! Love mine, such a reliable and practical car.

[@Tonesaway]

Bloody awesome, Adam. I bought an 02 during COVID lockdown and it's been great, as you say, so practical. I've made mine a bit more fun with BC Racing coilovers,lowered about 3 inches and 19x8 wheels and 245/40 tyres. And it's a manual. Good little donkey!

[@daztography1]

Because of this video, I’m picking up an 05 model this week, such cool cars.

[@BoostinC36]

Bought a 2010 sport with the 2.4 3rd generation with just over 200k. Under $7k. It's fantastic. The only thing we miss vs a more modern car is the lack of infotainment and reversing camera but easy to sort after market.

[@evanvavoulas4011]

I have one and it has over 300,000 km on it and it’s still running awesome the only thing is the key barrel to start the car is expensive and if it doesn’t work you’re car will become a brick with a engine. I got a after market part from a locksmith and it works awesome again, the original part was going to cost me about $1,500 from china and the aftermarket parts were only $500 he changed the barrel and coded everything up and I got brand new keys. I recommend this car especially because most of the people who bought them brand new were older people and they have more respect for their cars my car had 250,000 ks when I bought it and the people I bought it from were older and had the same car for 20 years

[@rickstechrepairs]

iv owned a 2002 CRV Sports for about 3 years now, sold my 08 wrx due to raising insurance costs paid $2400 with a rwc, 300,000kms iv since replaced most the cooling side of it, the ac is dead, but for a cheap run about with 3 kids. I have no care of dints or scratches. gets me to a to b and was dirt cheap (third party only insurance) has been a great purchase! especially with its party trick of the table btw: changing the head unit gave those speakers so much more life!

[@nathanglynn7443]

I bought a late 2005 auto model for $9500. Not sure on the exact trim but it has the unpainted bumpers with side steps and no sunroof. Anyway, it has full service history from new, one owner and very well maintained, I raptor coated the bumpers, put some cooper all terrain tyres on and just drive it around. It has 170,000 kms, recently had its vtec solenoid replaced and I replaced the serpentine belt (which is an absolute pain I might add). In the large chasm you mentioned under the stereo mine has a flap door, the interior of mine has the same fabric but with a blue tinge to it (reminds me of the old buses when I was a kid) mine has the original stereo and 6 cd changer under it with the codes etc in the book, I ended up keeping it original and ordered cds for it and I love that retro quirk. The rear parking sensors in mine leave a lot to be desired as they love to beep when nothing is there at times. I never knew the rear had an inbuilt picnic table and that’s gotten me super excited. I bought mine as a cheap adventure car because 4x4s are so pricey and I don’t plan on doing any extreme four wheel driving. Mine gets me to where I need to go through snow and ice, up dirt and sand and steady on the road. My next plan for mine is to add fog lights, get some slotted rotors, and redo the undercoat/rust coat in the wheel wells. Our daily driver is a 2017 kluger glx and coming from, a car guy I’m loving the suv life. The crv just feels like a more built and lifted civic to me and is nice when you want a smaller suv (the kluger dwarfs it in comparison). I am extremely happy with it as the car guy in me used to dabble with a lot of civics. I plan on taking my little family on a tonne of picnics and just use it as a very practical all rounder that’s reliable and capable of what I want it to do.

[@dasithgamage8539]

Wow amazing video that compiles weeks worth's of research so succinctly, keep up the great work guys!

[@ReDriven]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@paultam544]

Mine one is 170,000 miles last week. You may find under seats storage in some model. Also, there is a little box below the bottom on the right side. A hidden storage and I find out when someone break into my car 2 years ago (nothing being stolen as I never leave anything valuable in car).

[@paulie2476]

Im looking for a new car and Honda CRV is one that im looking for. I have also had a rule in my cars which is no smoking allowed since Im a none smoker. Everyone else in my family smoke but they have been really respectful and understanding over that rule.

Nice video, what's the fuel economy like? Keen to know I'm looking at one of these.

[@rah9179]

2002 CR-V now with 460000 km. Unscheduled maintenance-replaced interior ventilation/demist fan, ignition switch, starter motor. Thats all. Apart from increased oil consumption and electric door locking issues it runs beautifully still.

[@matthewgray3375]

Mine done 470k now, done alternator, starter, the odd mount, bushes in lower a arms, drag links right front cv boot all the usual wear items, all electrics, panels, etc are fine, even the disc rotors still measure in spec. Couple things is o2 sensor setback adapters solve that problem, heavy rear springs are awesome, only use honda knock sensors, and the windshield surrounds don't survive rough windshield installers. Love my crv, it's a 05 sport auto

[@matthewgray3375]

Did rear wheel bearings and rear calipers when the slider pins froze so hard I couldn't Free them, this car launched boats in a previous life

[@bestestusername]

We have a 2014 CRV and compared to our territory, well no comparison the Honda quality is stand out. 200 000kms now and it still feels brand new no quibbles or anything. Ours is a 2.0lt fwd so on a diet of 98ron fuel its fine as it drinks only around 7.5lt per 100km even less on long trip.

[@themoon69420]

I picked up a 2006 EX four years ago with 251k miles on it for $1500 and it's been one of the best vehicles I've ever owned.

[@mds2465]

I have an 05 with a stick shift! I love it! They were manufactured in Japan and the UK as well. Mine was manufactured in the UK. Difference is the UK cars had the same style wheels as this car does and they also had the beige interior among other things. The ones with the dark interior and the wider spoke rims were manufactured in Japan.

[@markoneillandfriends2058]

Miss our 06 model everyday... its still in the family with a neice and will come back home one day. Close to 400k on it by now.

[@Sable_Street_Studio]

I bought an 04 CR V sport model last year. Love the car, the 90s interior and all its quirks. Had the same experience as you with the interior, looks amazing for its age. So practical and cheap to service too. Took a lot of searching and waiting as they aren't as common here in South Africa. My only regret is not waiting for an 05 or 06 but the one I bought was in too good condition not to grab it! Great vid, makes me love my CR V even more now! haha

[@VegetaSanchez-q9l]

Please do a review on the underrated Mitsubishi 380. I’ve had mine for 15 years and it’s still going strong. 💪🏾

If anyone asks "What car should i get?!" the answer is always CRV

[@damilolaakanni]

In my side of the world, the answer is always "Corolla". They're everywhere here, and despite prices of used ones going up constantly, people are still buying them.

[@fredericoespinoza]

Very true, but we would then say "RAV4" in Australia people want some more space in cars, hence why our car market is literally 70% SUVs@@damilolaakanni

YES BUY IT, they keep on going and cheap to fix and do maintenance, 4WD make it safer to drive,the tranny is also reliable. The new engines keep failing do it to gas vapors mixed with the oil, this old one has the best reliable engine, dont know why they redesign it an make bad on the newer mdels

[@brianreyes5410]

I had 05 crv and loved it. Sadly I got in a crash and it got pretty much destroyed. the crazy thing is as the front end was pretty much destroyed and the coolant was running down like crazy from the crash the tow guy asked “do you think it’ll run” I said idk let’s see the damn car did turn on and kept running I was like whoa no way obviously it was a bit rough but we were like wow god damn Honda. one of the best little suvs ever. Worth the 3k I spent.

[@Aussiedavid71]

Putting the front seat forward, taking off the headrest, reclining it so its level with the back seat, then reclining the back seat. Apparently its an acceptable sleeping position. Lots of KZbin content on these models.

My wife has had a Gen 2 and currently a 4th Gen CRV, and both have been bulletproof. Stay away from the X-trail as they have a lot more issues.

[@ilik258]

I had a white CRV with black leather and it was a nice car. The one thing I didn’t like was the part time AWD which always seemed to spin the front wheels easily. I can’t say I felt the AWD ever engage. Maybe I expected too much as my previous car was a Subaru.

[@muscle_car_guy2338]

These being a suv but having the K24 will definitely make the drive better if they have a ecu reflash by Ktune

[@jim_jam_dseries]

When I was getting my Civic serviced, I was given one of these as a loan car. It had 492,000 km on it. Obviously, I don't know if the drive line was original but it drove very well and the interior was still in great shape. I need to add one of these to my collection me thinks 😂

[@ynots0625]

Can I make a suggestion with the ashtrays? Fill them with washing powder so the car always smells fresh like I do? Free air freshener containers.

[@marksweet8740]

I am not a SUV person at all but we owned a 2005 Kia Sportage V6 petrol when we bought it, it had 180 thousand on it we had it for about five years put about 50 thousand on it and apart from usual service costs and a few light bulbs it was rock solid and great build quality and so versitile there was one small problem it had a drinking problem. I think around 2004 to about 20010 maybe was peak SUV when you could use them for what they were designed for. Now they are over priced boring generic rubbish in my opinion.

[@EuroYXX]

Not only the front seats are uncomfortable, they made the passenger seat rail so short, that it manages to be both big and cramped up front at the same time (yes, after moving the front seat all the way backwards). but on the plus side, it's so slow drag racing a city bus becomes a fun, unpredictable and challenging activity...

[@mrWathedeuce]

We bought my former 2004 with 6 miles on it. It ran to 300k miles without a single engine component changed! We simply changed the fluids and filters regularly. Only reason why we dont still have it is my sister totaled it. 😔

[@daispy101]

That AC issue happens with later models, too. No idea why Honda got rid of the picnic table because that was genius.

Wow that’s different and cool you’re own car on here ! I tell everyone that buys a car to the brink of their income, you can get a fantastic car for 10 grand! This is one of them

I am on my third CRV, my latest is the 2.2 diesel 2006. The diesel gives far more mpg. I have had a problem with mine that happens now and then, the VSA light comes on and it goes into limp mode. I plug my cheap fault finder in and it shows that the throttle position sensor has a problem. I clear the code and it usually rights itself. I recently got fed up with doing this and so bought a genuine Honda sensor at £350 it cured it for a while then started playing up again. No on on the internet or any mechanics can tell you what the problem is. Its so bloody annoying. My mechanic has a customer that has the same model and same issues.
