Additional Notes

  • The Honda CR-V V, RW1/RW2 (EU) rear differential carries an overhaul capacity of 1.5 liters, which represents the total fluid volume the unit holds when fully drained and refilled during a complete disassembly service.
  • The service fill capacity of 1.2 liters is lower than the overhaul figure, reflecting the volume used during a routine drain-and-fill where residual fluid remains in the differential housing.
  • Under normal use conditions, the rear differential fluid change interval for the 1.5 PF AWD variant is set at 60,000 km or 48 months, whichever comes first.
  • A first change only designation applies to an extended interval of 120,000 km or 96 months, meaning the factory-fill fluid in the 1.5 PF AWD rear differential is specified for a single longer-duration service before subsequent normal intervals apply.
  • The 1.5 VTEC PF AWD variant shares identical rear differential capacities of 1.5 liters overhaul and 1.2 liters service fill, as well as the same 60,000 km or 48-month normal change interval.
  • The first change only interval for the 1.5 VTEC PF AWD rear differential also mirrors the 1.5 PF AWD specification at 120,000 km or 96 months, indicating consistent factory-fill fluid longevity across both engine variants for the 2018-2021 period.
