What is the recommended maintenance schedule for the 2005 Honda CR-V?
You want your Honda CR-V to last as long as possible. If you put in the effort to keep up with proper maintenance, your CR-V has a good chance of hitting 200,000 miles or more. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get CR-V maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. Rely on the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been created just for your 2005 Honda CR-V!
Honda knows your vehicle inside and out (they made it, after all!), so they’ve designed this schedule with your car’s unique needs in mind. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; however, there’s a good chance that your vehicle’s recommended maintenance services will include fluid exchanges, filter changes, new brake pads, oil changes, and tire rotations. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your CR-V's life, increase your vehicle safety, and help you avoid expensive repairs caused by 2005 Honda CR-V problems later.
Head to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care in your 2005 Honda CR-V for factory-recommended routine maintenance and a skilled technician will start the appointment with a Courtesy Check. A Courtesy Check helps "set the stage" for your service and catch any small problems before they turn into big repairs. Each Courtesy Check includes a free battery test and an inspection of your CR-V's windshield wiper blades, head and tail lights, filters, fluid levels, tires, and alignment.
Think you could be due for a new battery in your 2005 Honda CR-V? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. Depending on the climate where you live and your habits while driving, your CR-V may need a replacement battery sooner. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Honda CR-V battery. While you could wait until your battery fails and you hear the dreaded "click," you're better off replacing it before then! If you keep driving on a battery that can't hold a charge, you run the risk of being stranded when your battery finally gives out (and no one can predict where that might be!). Your Honda CR-V won't be going anywhere without a strong battery.
Staying on schedule for battery replacements and motor oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 2005 Honda CR-V engine. To learn how often Honda recommends you have the oil changed in your 2005 CR-V, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Remember, things like average outside temperature or frequency of trips could increase or decrease this interval for your specific vehicle. Come in and speak with a Firestone Complete Auto Care technician to find out how often to change your oil. We can also answer any questions you have about what type of oil to use for your 2005 Honda CR-V.
Routine upkeep for your Honda CR-V suspension and steering system can not only ensure a smooth ride; it can also help you maintain control of your car in compromised road conditions.

Bring your car to Firestone Complete Auto Care, where our technicians can check your car’s steering components and, if necessary, provide Honda CR-V steering and suspension services including wheel alignment, strut replacement, power steering fluid changes, ball joint lubrication, and wheel bearing replacement. Components within your Honda CR-V's steering system require regular maintenance.
If you fall behind on routine Honda CR-V maintenance (or worse, don’t do it at all!), you might find yourself with a hot mess on your hands – quite literally.

Our technicians have you covered there, too, with the tools and expertise to care for your entire Honda CR-V cooling, heating, and climate control system. Is your Honda CR-V radiator in need of replacement? We can take care of that. Got a funny smell coming from your A/C? We'll fix it.
