What Does Your Honda CR-V Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, even the smallest transmission problems should be addressed right away. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. Honda CR-V transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, a feeling of shakiness, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you don’t pay attention to Honda CR-V transmission trouble you might notice your fuel economy decrease or discover that your CR-V’s not even driveable.

Questions About 2018 Honda CR-V’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Honda's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Honda CR-V? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. 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.
  • How often does my CR-V transmission fluid need to be checked? Maintaining your Honda CR-V transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Honda CR-V transmission fluid leak? 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.
  • Where can I get my  Honda CR-V transmission fixed? If you have a problem with your transmission system, don’t hesitate to visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care. Our expert technicians can diagnose and repair CR-V transmission leaks and other issues. Schedule an appointment today!
  • Can I still drive my Honda CR-V if it has a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak. Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your CR-V to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
