The 2012 Honda CR-V is equipped with a timing chain. It is recommended to replace the air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles. The coolant should be replaced every 60,000 miles. Spark plugs typically need to be changed every 100,000 miles unless they are copper, in which case they should be replaced every 30,000 miles. Be prepared for various engine issues, such as oil leaks that should be promptly fixed, loose gaskets that require immediate tightening, and potential spark plug malfunctions. Keep an eye out for signs of excessive oil consumption, which may necessitate more frequent oil changes. One critical issue to watch for is engine overheating, as it can lead to fires and even the car exploding.
