2010 Honda CRV vibration in front feel it at the steering wheel around 60 to 75 kilometer as soon you go a bit faster goes away.
Very nice video . Thanks
Learned so much from watching this! Thank you for the thorough details and sage advice. I know a lot more about how to service my Element 🙂
Blue Zerex coolant for Honda work okay, does it work as well as honda's blue coolant?
Why is it called "dual pump fluid"? Who are these pumps, and why are there two of them?
Thanks for the instruction, I am beginning to know my car a little better. Keep up the good work.

Anyone knows how to remove those two bolts {11:56}?
Because they were already stripped by Honda dealership service center.
I just dropped my 2014 Jeep Patriot 4×4 for a 05 Honda Element with 131,000 miles. Jeep is garbage and I've spent over 5k in repairs first 60k miles.
I'm about to start learning how do maintenance this by myself as I don't trust dealerships anymore. I'm about to order bushings for the sway bar because I have some rear-end noise, looking into 3 inch spacers and some bigger tiresto make it a little beefier for taking to the woods. I'm going to go back and watch part 1 and part 2 and make a list of what I need to do.
Is there a gas filter?
Thanks for this!
So when your drum fills up how do you dispose of that
What about the brake fluid you removed in
Part 1? I thought you were going to bleed the system?
Very helpful video, thanks!
Eric, there is an exterior transmission fluid filter. It is located on the hose that runs right behind the radiator drain. Lower plastic panel will have to be removed to access it from below.
In 9:02 the pin with the black end rubber shold be in the top hole not the bottom. Thanks
My 2003 Element is at 226k and I like watching your videos to refresh my maintenance plan. I always use wheel bearing grease on the brake sliders at every brake pad change and have never noticed any rubber boot degradation but I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for your explanations as your work, not just the what and how, but the why. You're one of the very few that I trust.
Hi Eric I have a 2002 Honda CR-V and the windscreen washer bottle is leaking what’s the quickest way to fix this can’t see where it’s leaking from cheers jamie from uk 🇬🇧
I never heard of the Beck/Arnley coolant, will sure look into it. Thanks a million for this 2 part guide. creating DIY home mechanics which i hope is a good thing 😉
Does anyone know if the 2011 Element EX 2WD has a transmission fluid filter?
Should I be scared to change the transmition fluid on my 2005 CRV,? because I em
Love your Honda Videos. Helpful because I have a 2005 Honda Element AWD Automatic and original owner with 140,000 miles
Just curious of where the fuel filter for this car CRV/ Element? There's no maintenance for this?
My 2005 CRV is in great shape thanks to you, and yes I no longer need anyone to do the work for me, it's all done by me and that's how I know it's done right and it's that much more satisfying. Thanks again…
Eric, I apologize if this has been asked a lot, but when doing the rear differential where do I find the cap to put on the quart bottles? I have an 08 Element and did my trans yesterday, would have never done that without this video, thanks for the much needed confidence.
hi eric jsut wondering if you can help me with dodge journey 2014 sxt on changing the transfer case fluid?
I have an 02 crv auto 4wd and I heard there might be an external transmission filter, is this true? If so, where is it located?
Why didn’t you change out the atf filter?
Do i not have to worry about the differential if i have a 2wd?
Eric, I'm planning on buying a used Element and this video series is awesome. Since I live in the northeast (NY), what are the rust areas I should look out for?
OK Eric, bought 02 honda crv runs like a gem for 170 on it. I do my oil changes every 3 months or so . I'm wondering though when I bought the car it had green antifreeze coolest in it . Its never over heated on me nor caused a problem .. should I go back to blue honda fluid? Anyone? I will keep buying crv I love them the I vtec I think is a nice engine . I got a nice car with 140 mil for under 4 grand 4 banger I couldn't beat it plus it has alot of nice features on it . So what should I do , keep running green or go blue? Anyone please could answer that I thank you .
How much to change a clutch and a Honda element
how often does honda recommend the diff fluid change?
Eric please help my transmission lever is hard to move between park and reverse in my element 04 automatic awd also is hard to move in number 2 I can't move it all to number 1 help please
Throttle body cleaning? PCV valve?
A big thank you sir……I just purchased a 2003 Element with 185k miles on it……she will need some attention……and new crush washers 🙂
Interestingly I'v driven 2017 Honda Civic, CR-V and Odyssey. I think among all three I like the CR-V best. Had to laugh on the intimacy with vehicles thing.
Great info and tidbits of wisdom. In my limited experience changing coolant I stumbled upon a technique that seems help bleed the system. I jack up the front of the car (where the radiator is) and maybe its my imagination but it seems to help in bleeding the air out.
16:26 damn man lay off the beans next time.
Eric – you rock man. I have a 2003 Element and you have helped me so much. You have a great instinct for emphasizing the importing stuff and glossing over the "whatever". Thank you 🙂
Hi mate, I have an 04 crv auto, do you ever change the filter on these automatics?
Eric, I have a 1995 Honda Accord EX manual transmission. Can I use SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 API service SF or SG for my refill? Or, do you believe that only Honda manual transmission fluid should be used?
THANK YOU ERIC !!!
