At 85,000 miles, exhaust valves had to be replaced. Seven were worn by heat. One was cracked. Inquiry with dealers and firm which actually repairs engine valves said they have been seeing a number of crv's-which have recessed valves-with the same problem as mine.
Cylinder head failed, resulting in improper venting of exhaust and problems with fuel burn. This could lead to failure of the vehicle and dangerous buildup of noxious fumes.
The crv will have the motor just stall - even while traveling at highway speeds. Sometimes it will also stall while ideling. Sometimes it is hard to start, requires a jump. This has been happening for over a month. Dealership can't fix.
Vehicle was beginning to overheat, and consumer decided to inspect the radiator to find numerous pin holes. The pin holes were causing vehicle to overheat on a regular basis.
Exhaust valves on my 2000 honda crv charred and exhaust valve in cylinder #4 chipped and charred. All valves had to be replaced. I understand that this seems to be a common design problem to 2000 crv's and civics.
