Do not buy this car

published

SO this needs a lot of work doing to it.
Tyres are expensive on it, the fuel pump needs replacing and also the breaks, gear box and also spark plugs.
Does not cope with driving to and from FSH to alkimos everyday.
Would not recommend this car at all, do not buy it!

Love

We are very grateful that we have bought our Honda at Sutton Honda at the Homebush. Thanks Wilson and Nick as they were very kind and professional and helpful and knowledgeable about everything we asked about this new car as we traded in our old CRV in. It’s Amazing and drives well and fuel is very good as we only fill up once a week. Thanks Honda

Love them,but you need to find a well maintained model

published

Great car,i have a 2004 CR-V which has just clicked on 280,000km.
No problems.The key is maintenance.The diffs,& gearbox need to be serviced with genuine honda oil only,or you will end up with problems,especially the rear diff as non genuine oil ends up causing shuddering when accelerating.It only costs about $17 for a litre from Honda,so it's not expensive.
Regular oil changes are also important.
Great on fuel,averages about 9 litres to 100 on the freeway,& around 11 litres in the city,
Ensure you buy one with a complete service history,that's the key,& you will have a great car.

I love my car

published

Awesome car, plenty of room, fuel saving. comfortable ride. easy easy to drive. the height is perfect too. We were tossing between RAV4 or CRV. So glad we made our decision on CR-V
I've had this car now for 3 years with no regrets. Only thing is the multimedia console which is quite outdated but with the new CRV, they have done an upgrade with iphone connectivity and such.
Would drive the same car again.

Excellent car great fuel economy

published

Bought in August 2017 after tossing between cx5 n crv. Crv represented a much better value for money and a much bigger interior. 5 yrs unlimited km warranty. I have driven in 17000km so far and average fuel consumption ranges between 6.5l/100 to 7.3/100 for mixed use. apple CarPlay is excellent.
I owned Honda’s before so I know they are good and reliable cars. This one is no different.

This is a great little car !

published

Such a nice card to drive. It’s a very roomy car and despite its age, it isn’t all that out dated. The one major thing I would point out that I don’t like though is that the horn is shocking. How am I meant to signal people with a pathetic horn like mine ! It also guzzles fuel, at $75 to fill up and about 6.5 hours driving out of it.

Most practical car ever!

published

Big boot, comfy seats and super easy to drive. Granted you can't race anyone in this car, so overtaking and rushing is not a strength however, everything else about the car is great. We have taken this car on long trips and it's comfortable enough, however you soon realise that it's not as quiet as you would expect.

Beautiful car to drive

published

Easy and a pleasure to drive. Feels roomy inside, and good boot size, but not overly large to park. The included parking rear camera is very helpful. The car comes with Carplay which is a great feature with iphones but requires all apple apps and disappointing does not work with google maps. Seems economical to run.

Easy to drive

published

The car has excellent safety features which include front and rear sensors, reverse camera and left lane check.

the car looks small on the outside however there is a lot of room, the interior is easy to maintain and keep clean and tidy, would highly recommend purchasing the boot mat as it have saved me cleaning time

Paint bubbled and peeled at year 6 - Honda took no responsibility

published

I was a loyal Honda customer, owning 2 Honda's. Unfortunately the paint started bubbling on my steel grey Honda CRV at year 6 (approx $40K car) with independent quotes of $4,000 to fix it.
Upon calling Honda, they told me that the paint was only guaranteed for 3 years and they would not do anything to fix it, even though they had changed paint type post this due to identified issues. With only 50,000km on the clock, the car is now worthless. Such a pity they treat a loyal customer in this manner and I am left with such a bad and costly customer experience.

Great Family Car

published

Perfect car for your family. The car is very comfortable and most definitely suitable for all families. Driving it is a smooth and relaxing experience. Reverse parking camera has helped with speeding up the process without any accidents. All in all, this car turned out to be very comfortable and productive with its versatile features.

Suitable for a woman

published

when I got a recommendation this car, 2015 CRV, from the sales person, I was not sure because it is a very big size to drive for a woman, I thought. However, once you drive this car, you can feel very light and easy to drive. It is the first advantage. Moreover, it is beneficial as it is a fuel-efficient with eco system. I have Matsuda 3, too. I pay both car with same fuel costs despite of different size, which is fantastic experience for me. My car is white one, but I don't like the all of features such as design and color. But it is my favorite car ever.

Great reliable car always!

published

We loved this car so much and was really sad when I sold it. We owned it for almost 8yrs and had no problem at all with the car. It’s powerful and so reliable, I enjoyed driving this car around Sydney and interstate.
Ac was always cold and never had problem. Service didn’t cost us a lot too.
The seats were comfortable, Front and back. And the bonus hand rest can’t be beaten. I wish all cars have handrest for the driver seat.

Affordable 7 seater

published

We were very skeptical of the 1.5L turbo engine for such a big car. The engine turned out to be surprisingly sufficient and also frugal on fuel. The dashboard is all digital, and has nice and big readouts. The only thing missing on this type of car is LED headlights, the halogen headlights has very poor visibility at night.

Perfect car

published

Perfect family car. Bought when they had the limited edition. Lane change assist camera is the best function I ever had. Front and reverse sensor and camera makes parking a breeze. Love the design of the car - more than the newer ones. Fuel efficiency could be bette but happy overall.

CR-V RM (2012-2016)

On occasions my remote control won’t work & have been unable to lock my car. On returning to the vehicle sometimes only 15 minutes later find the accessories, interior & side lights all on. The auto electrician & Honda dealership can’t find anything wrong.

Wow sounds like a nuisance problem, the best people that have direct access to Honda are the car dealers, specially the one where you get your car serviced.
I have contacted Honda direct and they keep palming me off to the dealers.
So keep hassling them and ask them for solutions, maybe to reprogram or replace your remote control.
Good luck!
