Honda CR-V Service Intervals

How Often Should I Service My Honda CR-V?

For the Honda CR-V, service starts at 7,500 miles with the first engine oil change. The first tire rotation takes place at this point, too. From that point, Honda CR-V service intervals vary based on the year of the CR-V that you own and the trim level. For the most accurate Honda CR-V maintenance schedule, look at the schedule printed in the owner's manual for your car, which outlines exactly which services your car will need and when. Service generally starts at 15,000 miles and continues until the car hits 90,000 miles.

15,000-Mile Service

When your Honda reaches 15,000 miles, it will be due for another oil change and a general inspection of the oil's condition. If the engine filter is dirty, it will be replaced, so that clean air circulates through the engine. The car's tires are rotated again at 15,000 miles, following their first rotation at 7,500 miles. Your mechanic will also inspect the car's windshield wipers and lights for safety.

30,000-Mile Service

The next service in the Honda CR-V maintenance schedule is 30,000 miles. At 30,000 miles, your car gets a more comprehensive inspection. Along with another tire rotation and oil change, your car's brakes get checked, including the brake discs, pads, and rotors. The braking system's connections and wiring are checked for safety reasons, and the brake fluid is inspected for performance. The air filter in the car's cabin may be replaced at 30,000 miles. The tie-rod ends are inspected at 30,000 miles, along with the gearbox and gearbox boots, which may have leaks or damage. The steering linkage is checked as well.

60,000-Mile Service

When your car hits 60,000 miles, it will have even more services. The spark plugs on your CR-V will get checked and replaced if needed, and their wiring elements are checked as well. The suspension components are physically evaluated for damage and corrosion. The driveshaft boots will be inspected, and a mechanic will look at the power remaining in the battery and check its overall condition. The brake hoses and brake lines get checked at 60,000 miles as well.

90,000-Mile Service

When the CR-V hits 90,000 miles, it will have its fluid levels checked for the brakes, engine, and transmission. The type of transmission that your car has determines the fluid that gets changed. The windshield washer fluid is also replaced, and the fuel lines get checked. The exhaust system and catalytic converter are inspected at 90,000 miles, too.
