Hi, anyone driving this car? i got mine in year 2005 and this car is really lacking in low end torque.
every time i step on the pedal there will be a moment of lag before the car starts moving. Furthermore, the fuel consumption is really really TERRIBLE. i pump around RM100 everytime i refuel and i only get 280-300km before the the light comes up. Even my previous 1.6 waja has better power and FC than this car( Rm100 can go for 500km)
anyone in this forum driving this car has the same situation as me? or there is some mechanical error with my engine?

hmmm, i thought the 2nd gen crv are all 2wd? mine doesn't have the 4wd embossed on my back window like the latest crv. So i assume they are 2wds. powerful 0.o. i can already feel the lag on level surface. Mine tops at 160kmh at 4th gear. it wont go further unless i swtich to 3rd gear

ohh icic. i guess there's no switch to switch it off and on or an indicator to tell you if its on or not. are there? crazy fuel guzzler even a 2.4 estima and harrier has better FC than the crv. scorgio, do you experience some lag when you accelerate on normal road like me?

okay bro, thanks you very much. i've been going to Honda service centre. i told them about it all they say is that it is normal. maybe it's becaus eof the warranty. they didnt bother checking. will be going there again this week, the warranty's over, maybe the'll bother checking everything nicely this time.

yup, really terrible. imagine 280km for RM100. on a 2.o car zzz

lol that sucked, we're gonna die after the fuel price hike.


yea i had the 1st generation as well. much more powerful and fuel efficient. i thought it would be the same for the 2nd gen and it turned out like that.

hmm, what you all said is kind of foreign to me =/
what is e-manage huh? well if i were to tune it. i might as well get a new crv lol. since the market price for mine is around 101K + 40k a new and better one.

hhaha i was just joking bro. don't take it too seriously.
oh. i have to replace the ecu? where can i find it? i'm afraid that those lousy mechanic shops will screw the car up
