I've had mine for 2 1/2 years and it's extremely reliable. The O2 sensors tend to go and that's about all that I've heard ever goes wrong with them. Mine will be for sale soon. It's a white 2004 with 120,000 kms and has the body kit.

check the power door locks - the actuator going is common. both of mine went around 60 k

check the SRS, it will often go on , usually related to a seatbelt buckle

check the roof rails ( 2 black things on then roof) . they often get loose and get sludged with dirt

it has been my most reliable car ever. i owned it since new and it is still running on its original battery/ brakes since new.

Lol that is 90% of cars in the Gvrd. Doesn't mean it's good, but it's definitely the norm.

They can be expensive as hell too, the seatbelt buckles are common on the CRV's and ~$500 each.

Didn't someone from RS pick this one up? If so, looks like he's selling it for a hefty amount more than asking price.

if you care about the stock audio, the HU and speakers go wonky too.
