It's never too early to change your ATF. It will look good for you when
you sell it, and you'll sleep with a smile on your face for taking extra
good care of your CR-V. You've already added the extra DOTS to the
maintenance schedule for the rear differential, haven't you? Manual says
105,000 Km, but reality says 30,000 Km.
Scraping, shuddering noise during tight low-speed turns is the symptom
of exhausted Dual Pump Fluid. . . .
