Question 1

DPF blockage from short journeys (2.2 i-CTDi)

Accepted Answer

The diesel particulate filter on the 2.2 i-CTDi needs regular sustained runs at motorway speeds to regenerate. Cars used mainly for short urban trips light up the DPF warning, lose power and may go into limp mode; repeated interrupted regenerations also dilute the engine oil with diesel.

Question 2

Dual-mass flywheel and clutch wear (2.2 i-CTDi)

Accepted Answer

Judder when pulling away, a rattle at idle that stops when the clutch pedal is pressed and vibration through the pedal point to a worn dual-mass flywheel. It is common on diesel cars driven in stop-start traffic and is normally replaced together with the clutch.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

The air conditioning on the CR-V 3rd Gen commonly stops cooling due to a failed compressor clutch, a leaking condenser damaged by stone chips or a faulty pressure sensor.
