2002 Honda CR-V Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Honda? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Honda CR-V? Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your CR-V towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your CR-V is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my CR-V's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Honda CR-V’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Honda. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Honda CR-V? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Honda CR-V, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who fixes Honda CR-V transmission leaks? When your CR-V transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Honda CR-V if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your CR-V if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
