| Description of the problem | When starting the car in the morning there is a grinding noise. It is now getting worse. From the description search on the internet, this seems to be more common in the 2014 honda cr-v. The issue seems to be with the vtc actuator. I believe the part honda has used is defective. This has been an issue in earlier versions of the cr-v and accord. |
