I have 248,000 miles on my 08 CR-V. This is the best car I’ve owned ( I’m 68) no oil issues, same timing chain and tensioner. However I wonder if it would be wise to replace the tensioner? Regardless, this engine is fast! Quick acceleration , everything about the engine is good. It’s not a real comfortable ride but I’m running mud & snow tires too. Haven’t replaced much, starter, battery, AC, front shocks, back struts this weekend…. Brakes, shoes and pads… that’s about it. For the miles it’s done me good! Random stuff going now, door locks, fan for the AC, radio is spotty and cd players shot . It’s showing age but I’ll drive it till it dies most likely.. it’s not the best time to buy a new one with prices rising everywhere you turn. Thanks Honda!! Oct 09, 2024

I got it to save on gas and wear/tear on my Jeep. For a 2008 model its honestly a smooth little car. Roomy, comfortable, and the K24 is a strong little engine. MPG is decent for the size of the vehicle. Do your research, and find you a good one and you’ll be pleased!Jul 26, 2024
