Oil droplets floating on top of the green (or orange) coolant are easily seen. Or visualize oil by looking into the top of the radiator through the radiator cap.Coolant infiltrating into and mixing with motor oil will permanently damage the engine (seizing it up through loss of lubrication), and must be prevented.A leak from above the front suspension is, as physicians like to put it, "nonspecific", with the most likely cause a water pump seal or hose/hose connection.A leak from near the fire wall will usually be a heater core hose, or hose connection.A coolant leak on the same side of the engine as the water pump is a leaking water pump or water pump seal until proven otherwise.To rule out everythng else, here's the 1999 Honda CR-V Troubleshooting Guide for Coolant Loss/Coolant Leaking:Priority Action Part Type Cause1 Inspect Water Pump - Worn, Cracked or Leaking Water Pump, or Water Pump gasket.2 Inspect Head Gasket - Leaking Head Gasket.3 Inspect Radiator - Leaking Radiator Hose(s).4 Inspect Radiator Cap - Worn or Damaged Radiator Cap.5 Inspect Radiator Hose - Ruptured, Cracked or Leaking Radiator Hose.6 Inspect Freeze Plug - Leaking Freeze Plug(s).7 Inspect Intake Manifold Gasket - Leaking, Worn, or Damaged Intake Manifold Gasket.8 Inspect Water Outlet - Cracked, Leaking or Damaged Water Outlet.9 Inspect Heater Control Valve - Leaking or Faulty Heater Control Valve.10 Inspect Radiator Drain Pepcock - Loose, Damaged, or Faulty Radiator Drain Pepcock, or Pepcock O-ring.11 Inspect Engine (DOMESTIC ONLY) - Cracked Cylinder Block Leaking Coolant into at least one Cylinder, causing white exhaust smoke.

problem with the immobilizer system , try another key.(if you have one)

FixYa is international. Unless you state where in the world you are, it's impossible to make specific recommendations.

What does hold good universally though is that ALL salvaged transmissions are a gamble. Unless you personally know the history of the donor vehicle you have no way of knowing the good from the bad, and neither do most commercial dismantlers. Plenty of private sellers will know, but you have no way to trust their assurances. If a FixYa Expert recommends a supplier, you have no way to know whether they have a vested financial interest in doing so.

Even if you get to test drive the donor vehicle it only shows that the ****** appears good for the brief time you drove it, unless you can give it a hundred miles or so over various conditions, but a vehicle that good won't be a breaker.

All you can do is to find a reputable dismantler who offers a decent no-quibble warranty, the best you can hope for is one who will guarantee the ****** as good for up to about ninety days, but even then they will usually have strict conditions regarding installation and servicing of the unit (usually certified professional installation and all fluid, filters and shaft seals to be renewed). transmissions. Some of those suppliers will claim to be providing tested guaranteed units, but again, you have to take their word for it, and the cost of those units will be getting towards the cost of a good quality remanufactured transmission with a full warranty, but one of those will likely cost more than buying another used CR-V (also a gamble, but at least you get the chance of a good long test drive to minimise your risk).

In short, any recommendations you get on FixYa as to where to buy are likely to be useless. Cheap/reasonable priced transmissions and guaranteed good transmissions are mutually exclusive. Pick a supplier based on personal recommendations and take a calculated gamble.

Sorry this isn't the answer you hoped for, but understanding why your question has no straightforward solution may help you to reduce the odds in your favour.

Hello.First look in your papers provided when you bought the car. The original documents have the code. No Papers? Then, pull the radio out 1/2 way and read the code on the top. No tools? Go on the Honda site & find the location for Radio Codes. Fill out the form. By the next day they send your codes. Good Luck!

Could be many things. Do you have a check engine light on? If so get it diagnosed. However I doubt that you have this condition as it sounds like you take quite good care of your car. Some other less obvious things to check, are tire inflation, and have the car raised on a hoist, and checked for a binding brake.That is quite often overlooked. Have a reputable garage drive the car with a scanner hooked up, and have them check that all of the sensors(ie. coolant and ambient air temp, etc) are within range.

1. Try looking into the service manual. If you are the original owner of the card there should be something that looks like a white credit card. It will contain the serial number and code for the stereo.
2. Check on the sides of the glove compartment box (the part you pull down). There may be sticker with the code on it.
3. Pull the ash tray out and look on the bottom of it.
4. It may be located on the door itself (the part hidden when you close the door).

Check engine lights illuminate when there is an issue with the emissions system. Since there are a variety of problems that can become faulty, they give them numbers called "codes" in order for me to better assist you, you would need to get that code from the scan port by a local garage or mechanic with a tool for doing so.
