    Hi everyone! Just about to make 70,000 Miles on the cheese wedge, what should I do for maintenance? For now, since I'm shipping the car off in about a month (and I lack a second car), I'm thinking just these things: Battery Replacement (the battery light is on in accessory mode) Spark Plug...

    Hi all! First post on this forum! I have a 2011 CRZ EX CVT that has been jerking from a complete stop only when I press the gas. At other speeds it’s fine but it’s only when I try to accelerate from 0 it kinda goes back and forth a little then it’ll go normally. I was worried the transmission...
  3. CR-Z Build Threads
    Links will be added when I find/create organized individual posts for the important ones. I do not want to clutter up the front page with 10+ chrisrkooz posts in one day. "Aw man its just this guy again" is not a desired effect. The following are generally within chronological order of...

    I read a lot of posts of people on here stating the manual and CVT weren't that different in terms of enjoyment (obviously not in driver engagement). I never stopped looking for a manual CRZ and finally I found one at a dealer. It was near my job interview so I stopped by to take a look. It was...
  5. Transmission Discussion
    So I haven’t had this car for too long and I checked the dip stick on a cold start. Maybe just 3min of running time at idle. Can someone verify if the oil is low and if so what type should I get from O’reilly, autozone or advance?

    Hi, a few questions; I have a CVT and always drive in sport with the paddle shift, I don't shift early, I usually go pretty high RPM before shifting. Could it actually damage something? The engine scream pretty good. And since it's a CVT and not a 6MT, I'm not sure when I should shift, just...

    Hey y'all, so I've got about 92k miles on my Z, and probably 40-50k of those were driven in sport mode with the paddles engaged. While that probably wasn't the smartest idea, as that combined with my aggressive driving style might have very well led to the death of my transmission, (the dealer...
  8. CR-Z Build Threads
    It's about time I made a build thread! I purchased my 2011 Honda CR-Z CVT EX back in 2014 with 30k miles, and at this current time of me creating this thread, I now have 125k miles. It all started with replacing the headlight and fog lights with HIDs, then the interior with LEDs around 2016...
  9. Transmission Discussion
    Week 2 of owning this car and I tried to pull up a small hill leaving a parking lot, the car was trying to accelerate but it was like something wasn’t allowing it to move much at all. I noticed briefly that under the mph display m-1 popped up, I put it in park and put it into drive and it...
  10. CR-Z Build Threads
    Hello, long time lurker here, (read; 7 years) and have now been a member for 1 year, i figured id kick off my build thread to celebrate. I can still remember the day i first saw the CR-Z on honda's website, i was 13 at the time and just knew i had to have one. Fast forward to December 2018...
  11. Transmission Discussion
    Hi Everybody, I own a 2016 LX CVT with about 21,000 miles. I knew the factory service interval for the trans fluid was about 30k miles, but after browsing this forum it seems like most people recommend replacing it every 20k instead. I have also seen that all CR-Zs take the same fluid...
  12. Aftermarket Crowd
    Hi all! I'm relatively inexpereinced and modifying my CR-Z. Recently I bought and installed the Takeda Momentum 5R Intake for my 2014 CVT model. After installing, there were no issues electronically wise and the car did drive differently to my satisfaction. Only problem is that the air filter...
