I recently purchased a 2026 Honda CR-V EX-L and noticed these white, cloudy marks on the glossy black interior trim around the climate controls and a little on on of the doors.

They almost look like dried liquid stains or chemical damage, but they won’t wipe off with a damp microfiber cloth. They’re really only noticeable when direct sunlight hits them at certain angles but still drives me crazy.

Has anyone else experienced this or know what it could possibly be? I have only used a damp microfiber cloth to wipe the interior.

I've gotten a fuel system too rich check engine light a few times and each time I can clear the code and it'll stay off a few weeks. I realize the injectors are the reason it's triggering the code. I saw a video where a person used an oscope and it showed a big difference in how much carbon was on the injectors and piston after using the fuel addative for 2 tanks of gas. So I was thinking that would be a much cheaper fix if anyone has tried that and been successful.

Long story, but I had just gotten back from running errands, and as I was carrying all of my stuff in, I forgot my keys in my car and didn’t even realize it. Of course, I come out the next morning and my car was stolen overnight.

I was able to recover it, but the thief did take the original set of keys I had in the car. I have a (maybe irrational) worry that they will come back at some point and look to steal the car again. What’s the best option to prevent this? I know I can get a new set reprogrammed by a dealership so the old keys won’t be able to remotely unlock or start the car. But the stolen physical key will still be able to manually unlock the doors. Is it worth having completely new locks installed? I know that will probably be pretty expensive, so is it even worth doing? TIA!

Hi everyone, I have a 2018 Honda Accord 2.0t. I recently found out that Nucar Honda put the wrong AT fluid in my car. My car is supposed to take AT fluid 2.0 and they gave me nine speed automatic 3.1 transmission fluid. This is the third strike on them messing something up or trying to scam me for my money. They’re very unprofessional business. I called, spoke with a manager, and demanded a refund, but the manager told me “that’s not how business works” but was willing to give me a transmission fluid for free. I do not want to go to their business anymore. I’m very skeptical of how they work and fed up with them, so I’m taking my car to Herb Chambers.. my question is, do I have the right to get my refund or do I have probable cause to contact Honda corporate. Also, based on your experiences, has Honda corporate ever helped you out?

Pic for attention*

I have a 97 ek sedan that I took a locked up d16y8 out of and found another d16y8 which I rebuilt and swapped into the car

THE ENGINE RUNS GREAT! issue is when it comes up to operating temp the engine surges at idle but not when it is in Reverse, Drive, or any other gear that puts strain on the engine (it’s an auto)

Ithe idle will bounce between 500rpm and 2k ish.

I have tried reseating the intake, checking for hose cracks clamps or weak points. I have also made sure every hose is on in the correct place.

I’ve also burped the cooling system to make sure that wasn’t an issue somehow.

Has anyone had a similar issue???

Thank you in advanced I’m ready to get done with this thing an enjoy it!

It will be my first car, and I’m looking at a few EX trims in the 60-80k mile range for around 7-9k. I’ve always loved the look and a huge civic fan in general but after seeing the 0-60 and other specs it has me second guessing. I have a family accord so I only wanted mpg I would just drive that.

I want a car that is good on gas but also fun to drive, but idk if the 2000 ex can give me that. I have enough money to do an intake and things like that but no time or money for a full engine swap. Both cars are the d series so it’s around a 10 sec 0-60. Is the driving experience worth it even if it’s slower than my other cars? I want something I can call mine. I know this is a Honda sub but please give me unbiased information as much as you can.

I just got a new battery placed in my 2000 Honda cr v. And now my car doesn’t start. HELP.

I saw the tire pressure light on the other day, now suddenly I got a blinking “0” on my dash that quickly dropped to -15 over about 20 minutes driving to work.

I’m going to put air in, but… from 1-10 how bad off am I?

I took my C-pillar off to run wires for a rear dash camera. Prior to removal, I didn’t know there was a one-time use clip holding in part of the pillar. I was able to reuse the one-time-use clip on the A-pillar, but that one is completely different than the one used on the C-pillar. I was wondering if anyone had advice on how to remove & reuse the C-pillar clip or if there’s anywhere to get one for cheap. All Discount Parts has one for $10+, but that seems ridiculous for a quarter sized piece of plastic imo
