Why check the motor oil level in my Honda CR-V?

How hard is it to change Honda CR-V oil at home?

First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.

Honda recommends having your 2022 Honda CR-V’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your CR-V in the above table. No matter the mileage, your CR-V may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.

In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Honda CR-V. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
