Description of the problem | The oil in the crv is diluted with gasoline which was discovered on the first oil change for a new vehicle. The volume drained significantly exceeded the normal full oil capacities. The problem was reported to the local honda dealer which was serviced on 2/19/18. The dealer changed the oil once again, whiich was also diluted. All injectors were replaced at that time. On or about 3/28/18 our local service facility, pat's automotive in caribou, me, checked the oil which was again overfilled and contained gasoline. Honda was again contacted and on 4/3/18 the oil was checked by the dealer, was over the full mark again, and was diluted with gasoline. The oil was changed once again. Per the dealer, honda techline was contacted and they have no fix for the issue at this time and to change the oil as needed. The issue is very concerning as the engine of a new vehicle during the break in period that has gasoline diluting and displacing the oil can only result in a shortened engine life. |
