Honda crv problem - clutch and flywheel

chris_dee

I have a 2014 Honda CRV 1.6.diesel, after less than 8000 miles it needs a new flywheel and clutch. It has taken Honda some 7 weeks to supply the flywheel. No one seems able to explain to me why these faults have arisen,
I had another CRV for 10 years and never had to replace these parts (in fact I have never had to replace a clutch in any of my cars) so I would say that my driving style is not the cause of the failure. Honda will do the repairs under warranty.
Has anyone else had similar problems with this version of the CRV/Does anyone know if it is going to be a recurring problem?

What sort of driving do you do and what's your annual mileage?

Why not post on the Motoring board, which is the correct place for this question?

Google DMF Flywheel problems, they usually self destruct the day after your warrant runs out LOL so great that you are covered! probably just under £1500 to repair??
