2006 Honda CR-V 4dr SUV

turbocharged 138hp 2.2L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual AWD

124500 mi Climate works for a while then stops and blows warm air, even hot air occasionally. Then may work again next time I start off for a few minutes or an hour or so. regassed still the same. no diagnostic codes. Recharged A/C blows cold then hot after a few minutes. Condensor radiator blocked with dirt and sand. Can't exchange sufficient heat, so freon overheats and pressure switch cuts off compressor. Pressure washed condensor and radiator. Now OK!

Battery died and needed to be replaced. 
112000 mi The sensor in the truck was not detecting that the hatch door was closed, so it my lights were always showing that the trunk was open. As a result, my key fob would not lock the doors (because it won't lock if it senses a door is open). For whatever reason, shutting the door was not depressing the plastic arm enough. I "repaired" this by gluing a plastic furniture pad (the kind you would put under the legs of a chair or table to protect the floor) to the arm so that closing the trunk door would depress it enough to turn off the sensor. So far so good!

US $600
