  1. I'm not sure why the comment was made that "Honda says it is not" when the manual I got with my 2014 CRV-EXL gives instructions on how to do it. It says you must tow it with all four wheels on the ground and gives instructions on how to run thru the transmission gears prior to towing. My take is if they gives instructions on how to do it means they would have to honor the warranty. I also have an 04 Pilot that I have been towing for the past 7 years.
  2. We just, 3 days ago, bought a 2014 CRV to tow instead of the 04 Pilot we have. The interesting thing is the conflict in the owners manual. It says for driving 8 hours we should pull the Radio fuse but when you look for the Radio fuse in the fuse box there isn't one. When I called the Honda customer support number and finally found a "Tech person" she told me to pull the ACC fuse #19 as shown in the manual ( my old eyes couldn't read the tiny print showing the fuse number). What she couldn't tell me was what else is on that that ACC fuse line. At this point I'm inclined to not pull the fuse I can't easily reach anyway and start the car each time we stop to relieve "fanny fatigue" , have lunch and at the end and beginning of each day.
  3. I am an AMSOIL guy (dealer too). I have a 2002 Itasca Suncruiser, it is my 3rd motor home and I have used AMSOIL 10w30 in all three (454, 460 and this 8.1L engines). As a retired Army Maintenance Officer I learned a long time ago that synthetic oil was the way to go. My experience has been the the engine runs cooler, quieter, with better gas mileage and with the extended drain interval of AMSOIL (about 3 times longer than normal oil) it costs less. I use it in all my vehicles plus my lawnmowers. On the RV, I use a larger oil filter that holds 2 qts. I too add a quart about every 5,000 miles.
