DO NOT GO ON ANY LONG DRIVES WITH THE Cr-V !!!

Your valves are too tight and you'll burn one. Your North American
owner's manual is incorrect about the valve adjustment interval, and it
should read 30,000 Miles (50,000 Km).

When you get them adjusted, (anybody can do it) ask to have them set on
the loose side of the specs.
