Did the oil smell of gas? Some complaints were of gas smell inside the cabin. Honda was replacing HVAC systems due to this issue. Must have been an expensive service campaign.I service a friends 2019 CR-V with 13.5K miles on the clock.
I changed the oil at 10K. Mani was over this week and I checked the oil; it was pretty dark.
She does almost exclusively short trips. I am gonna do 5K OCIs...
Maybe I'll have the oil tested next time?
I did not drain the oil; I just checked it. I was doing a tire rotation. But I think I will do a test next service. If I remember, that is.Did the oil smell of gas?

Short trips are supposed to be worse for the issue due to the oil never heating up, but it's a 2019 so it "may" have been corrected?I service a friends 2019 CR-V with 13.5K miles on the clock.

Good info!Well, not quite the entire HVAC systems but the A/C control unit on some units in addition to software updates. The gist is they are trying to warm up the engine to operating temp quicker, or so it’s told. You can see details in TSB 18-147 (or later since they revised it a bunch).
I still think it’s a decent CUV and everyone I know who owns one enjoys it. I don’t ask about the OD issue though.
