How does Honda drivetrain maintenance help save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

How do I know if my Honda drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Honda CR-V? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

How often should I come in for Honda CR-V differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my CR-V?

Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your CR-V’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.

Can you reset your CR-V’s malfunction warning light at home?

Resetting a malfunction warning light at home may be possible sometimes, but it is never recommended. The check engine light is commonly triggered by a misfire, fault or malfunction in one of the vehicle's systems. It is important to identify and fix the underlying problem to ensure the safety and reliability of the vehicle. Resetting the check engine light without addressing the underlying issue may temporarily remove the warning, but it will not fix the root cause of the problem.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my CR-V?

A drivetrain malfunction in your CR-V should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.

Does my CR-V drivetrain include the transmission?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your CR-V’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your CR-V forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2015 Honda CR-V, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Honda's recommendations.
