Dad, you are a good teacher. So calm and patient and clear. Patty, you rock! You got more confident with each part of the job. That’s encouraging to me. 65 year old lady who just bought a 2006 Honda CRV. I have a good mechanic who went through and did a lot of stuff but I wanted to learn where things on my car are-That’s what brought me to your video. It was Helpful. Thank you! I had so much fun watching you to work together.
My daughter who is 15 and will receive my 2007 CRV. She just helped me replace the headlights as the DRL indicator was on and I had no high beams. Brought new LEDS and we're good to go. Shout out from NJ to NJ in the video!! Strong dads raise strong daughters!!
Hello John. Thank you so much for your comment. I am glad it worked out. Your daughter is getting a great car. Where in NJ are you? Maybe we can have a car meet. What will you be driving?
Thank you so much. I appreciate it. It is a basic car but it is also basically how every car is. If you watch the other videos on my Benz, the maintenance is the same. For example, the spark plugs on the CRV they are in top and there are 4 of them. On the Benz, the only difference is that they are on the sides and there are 8 of them. And is like that with many things. Thank you so much for watching.
Definitely a great first car! What a great father/daughter video! It's a great learning experience! I still have mine from 2008 brand new and still going strong! I Haven't broke 140k miles yet 😊 👍 Keep up the content!
loved this video. some solid life lessons there ! most people seem to have forgotten how to look after there things now. i say this and i am 32, but even i am my time i have seen a decline. I just brought my partner the same car, so this video was super helpful, thanks.
Well done!! I have a 2007 CRV as well, with 172k miles. Your engine looks clean, and Patty did a great job. No yelling, etc and she's not afraid to get dirty, etc.I haven't done my rear diff or transmission fluid, but I'll do it in the future, instead of paying someone. These CRV's last forever if well maintained and are great to drive.
Thank you so much. I’m glad you liked the video. Definitely should do your own maintenance. Make sure you watch the other videos I have, they will inspire you even more. I am pretty proud of my kids. Thank you.
A couple things should be noted when changing engine oil or transmission fluid,first make sure the drain plugs,filters & funnels are “clean” before using or reinstalling them. It looked like the funnel used for re-filling the transmission with fluid had sand or dirt in it? Any dirt on funnels or drain plugs will end up inside your engine or transmission,also only fresh engine oil should be used to lubricate the oil filter seal not grease! Many types of grease are not compatible with engine oil. A tip when installing a battery new or cleaning the terminals is to coat the inside of the terminals & battery posts with dielectric grease,this will prevent corrosion & insure a good electrical connection between the battery & the battery terminals. One more thing to do while under the car is to change the rear differential fluid,many people forget this important part of maintenance. It’s good to see fathers working with their children and passing on some basic skills needed to maintain their car.
Thank you so much for your comment. Great notes. I appreciate it. To answer your question. I cleaned the funnel every time I am going to use it. I don’t let the different oils mix. But good that you brought it up so other viewers make note of it.
Hello Repair Jose this is a very well put together video. I was wondering do you do repairs/maintenance for customers? I have a 2007 Crv, if possible can you help?
Hi. Thank you so much for your comment. Other than driving on the opposite side, I think they are the same. If am not mistaken some of the Japan market Hondas are built in Canada. So we get the same in the US as in Japan
Thank you so much for your comment. My daughter does not live with me. I don’t want her to worry about maintenance for a long time and also to make sure she is safe
I’m surprised you’re allowed to work on your vehicle at your condo parkade , not generally allowed by condo rules because then you have every vehicle being fixed , on ramps , fluid spills everywhere
Thank you so much for your comment. That would really depend. At operating temperature they are practically the same. But in cold weather 0w will be better for your engine than the 5w. 0w flows much better in cold temperatures. At start ups the engine is cold as it is. In the winter in New Jersey the start ups are much colder.
I have a 2011 crv exl you showed this 57 years old guy a lot. Thanks. Great job young lady!!! Excellent father
Thank you so much. Good luck with your CRV

Beautiful content. I believe a basic car service is a life skill every car owner needs. I watched the entire video.

Thanks.

@@Jochy625 ok
Have you had any issues with the transmission since changing the fluid?
Thank you so much for your comment. No issues at all. Not changing the trans fluid it’s a very bad myth.
Jose are their any difference cos between the American version and the Japanese version?
Hi. Thank you so much for your comment. Other than driving on the opposite side, I think they are the same. If am not mistaken some of the Japan market Hondas are built in Canada. So we get the same in the US as in Japan
Thanks a lot for the deatiled video
No problem. I am glad it’s helping. Thank you so much for your comment
Your brake looked new why change it

Make sure to turn on the car for at least 5 minutes to have better flow.
Thank you so much!
I’m surprised you’re allowed to work on your vehicle at your condo parkade , not generally allowed by condo rules because then you have every vehicle being fixed , on ramps , fluid spills everywhere
The idea is not to mention it. But thank you so much for your comment and for watching my videos.
Use a plastic bag over your hand as an extra protection.
Sounds good
5W-20 is better for theses CRV’S
