I recently bought a 07' CR-V and I am not sure what oils like( brake, transmission, coolant and engine oil) to use. What kind of oil is recommended?

It uses 5W-20 for the engine. Brake fluid it uses DOT3 or 4 brake fluid. I wouldn't worry about the trans or coolant. Coolant is not oil and trans fluid isn't oil like in the engine. When you bring it in for an oil change just ask them to check all the fluids for you and top them off if needed.

All that should be in the car's manual, you only need to do an oil change every ten k miles.

Jimeeezz... basically said what I was gonna say, the 2.4 Honda Vtec Engine uses 5w-20 and 4 brake fluid Or DOT3 but the Tranny and the Coolant have a different type of oil, Tranny Oil is different the Engine Oil and Coolant is does not use Oil, so if you decided to do it yourself, than you will go to your nearest local Auto parts or Autozone and ask them, most of this information is on your car manual read them carefully if you don't know how to change the oil, or if you need to know more about your car. Good luck.
