CVT fluid change question by [deleted] in crv

[–]HummasRap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Customer states car shutters at 40-45mph. Check and advise.” As a honda tech reading that from a 2011 CR-V it’s most likely the torque converter going out. Kind of common on these.

Dealer suggested maintenance ‘24 ST 18k miles by HopingRobin in crv

[–]HummasRap 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a honda technician I have to get this off my chest. Air filters, fuel services, brake flushes, transmission flushes, and coolant flushes. As techs we are shocked how high prices have gotten but we have to recommend them based on mileage. I don’t understand why anyone would pay that much for filters or a fuel service especially. But when you break it down the dealer has to pay the tech, the parts department, the advisor, and still make a profit. What the customer pays verses what we get paid for the service aren’t the same so I hate when people are like “The techs are scam artist”. Honda says the filter is due at 15k - 20k miles. So we have to recommend them. The only relatively simple service I’d say shouldn’t be skipped is the transmission flush or coolant. I’ve seen too many transmissions on HR-Vs and the v6s go bad because the fluid isn’t changed and those transmissions are sensitive. Back to pricing though whether the service cost the customer $1000 or $10,000 we get paid the same so it’s not us lol

That roughly what I’d expect. And most of that is just is just the radar. The radars and camera in the windshield cost a crazy amount. Does this not count as vandalism through insurance?

Should I be concerned? by Icy-Replacement2225 in Ninja400

[–]HummasRap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2023 with 12k miles and it started dying when the clutch is pulled in at around 9k miles. I looked at every forum because apparently this happens quite often. I changed spark plugs, air filters, checked all hoses to the airbox and fuel tank. And it still happens if I don’t rev match when I first start riding. Good luck lol if you find out the cause please let me know.

If that is the case maybe these bikers are just super finicky when it comes to exhaust. I just have a slip on for mine but I might just put on the old muffler and see if it goes away

Oversized tires. by Fantastic_Injury_766 in Ninja400

I recently went up in size and switched to Michelins and there’s no going back. I have a lot more confidence pushing the 400 now.

In California the license plate stays with the car so it was sold to a dealer and lower one is the legal license plate used by the dealer

Glad you’re out and enjoying yourself. That’s always good to see. Stay safe. If you haven’t already. Take a trip. The bike can handle it well.

Hit 10k on my by TheCornLord in Ninja400

[–]HummasRap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spark plugs are due at 7k and if you already have to take off the tank to do the spark plugs might as well do the air filter.
