Yeah, I can. Thank you, i will test drive and see if that fixes the issue. So you are saying that the sound produced is coming from the engine? The same sound on before i replaced the engine.
The sound is coming from your transmission.

This is the code that was displayed when I scanned it.
Check wiring to shift solenoid A (the solenoid with 2 big heads)
If fine, remove solenoid and clean.
Clear code and drive like a spirit.

If it comes back on, replace solenoid and repeat cycle.

If symptoms don't resolve, replace transmission.

Good morning sir. This is the one that came with the new engine, I tested it back then with hot water and it works. I'll install it this morning but won't be driving out till next week. When I test I'll feed y'all back.
Good morning. This looks good

Hope you know how install the thermostat and bleed the coolant ?
Bleed from radiator cap only. It's the fastest way to get most of the air bubbles out.

Lastly , confirm your Cooling fans cycle ON steadily @ about 93-96 degrees Celsius W/O AC...

I have one that came with the engine. Please, can you tell me why you think the thermostat is the issue?? Since there's no overheating issue?
Snap and post the other one u have .

The thermostat you have is not opening properly to evenly cool the entire system.

Replace it, bleed the cooling system with coolant and you'll be good.

My CRV 2014 is just 6 months old. Bought Tokunbor and had mechanics test it before buying.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be the best of buy. When I bought it, it had no dashboard light. After a few weeks, 3 lights came up, VSC, TPMS and Electronic sterring light, all at the same time.

Changed a lot of parts on both front and back legs because of noises. Also changed fuel pump.

Now, after doing some repairs on the hub, ABS light has come up and AWD light.

Ive used so many Hondas and haven't had this much issues. Im disappointed, and one of the reasons I bought the car was the lack of any fault lights on the dashboard.

My 2014 accord is 4 years old and has no dashboard light. Apart from servicing, changing kick, changing break pads, changing of one fan, the car drives like a dream.

Just yesterday, the CRV had a hesitation while climbing a hilly road, something never noticed before and it's really upsetting.

The car i replaced this with was a 2006 civic and was used for 6 years without many issues. Is the CRV just a bad car or I was unlucky not to get one in good condition.
Check the chassis for rust

Most mechanic/rewire and people around me are discouraging me about this. Saying I should manage it like that to avoid issue.. They don't even want to touch it,now I don't knw what to do right now or who to consult
Do you have a Honda OEM thermostat in situ?
Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by chillex8(m): 3:02pm On Nov 22, 2025
haykay2005:
the fine is direct.... bought like that from the previous owner. I understand that could slightly affect fuel economy but definitely not as high as this
It could be as high as that.
Your car should run @ 83-96 degrees w/wo AC.
Return the fans back to original set up and you'll notice an improvement in fuel trims.

To see a Nigerian used Civic without fuel management issue is hard.
Minimum you should get is 10km/L city drive.

I haven't checked at. Wide open trottle but am seeing like 12 g/s at 3000 rpm and between 4 and 5 at idle
Your maf is ok.
At what temperature does your Cooling fans turn on ?
Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by chillex8(m): 1:33pm On Nov 22, 2025
haykay2005:
Please, my 2006 Honda Civic currently shows a long-term fuel trim of -21. After resolving codes (P2185, P2413) by replacing the coolant temperature sensor and the EGR valve which I initially thought were the cause, the fuel trim has not improved. Additional information: the MAF sensor is reading around 4.2 4.6 g/s at idle with the gear in ‘P.’
Can replacing the air-flow sensor make any difference? There’s no check-engine light.


Pls help. This is so frustrating
What value does MAF read @ wide open throttle ?

What's the price range?

No, still cylinder 1
The engine doesn't shake when coil is removed like other cylinders
Replace engine and have peace of mind.
Engine has definitely been opened by previous owner.

No smoke at all
Yes, it's showing misfire for cylinder 1 and 2
I got it that way as a Nigerian used. The inspector said it's something he could fix when I got it. Unfortunately it's going beyond.
If you swap coil/plug/injectors from cylinder 3 and 4, do the codes switch ?

Thanks for your response
Still working but the engine feels the load
Does your vehicle emit any color of smoke?
Have you scanned for codes?
What work was done before you noticed this symptom?
