CRV hesitation and worse, any help??

Discussion in 'CR-V' started by I can't do that, Dave, Dec 25, 2005.

  1. Hi,

    I have a 2003 CRV (54K) and when it is cold, it always has 3 momentary
    hesitationson on the way to my front gate, about 300 yards (I live in
    the sticks). Each one always happens at exactly the same spot. The
    driveway is slightly downhill so I almost never use the gas pedal once
    I get it rolling towards the gate. It is running at the start-up fast
    idle which is more than enough speed.

    OK, I have suffered that for the past 6 months, (dealer can't find
    anything) but yesterday at a shopping center it finally quit, then
    after about 15 minutes with a few more tries to start, it started and
    has run fine since.

    Anyone have any suggestions on where to start looking? The warranty
    expired last month too. <sigh>

    Thanks for any suggestions

    Dave

    so it only happens in the winter? and only when the engine is cold? id
    try cleaning the throttle body and idle air control valve to start.
