| Description of the problem | My 2018 honda crv has the oil dilution issue at my first oil change i asked the service adviser why my oil level was over the top of the dip stick by about 3/4 an inch and the oil smelled like gas and i also asked him why i smelled it in the cabin. He said anything was wrong it was normal. I checked the oil every 1000 miles and it would go up 1/8 inch every 1000 miles. I took the crv back the dealer because the heater would not get warm at all at idle and the smell of gas was terrible my garage even had a strong smell of gas. The dealer told me i definitely had gas in the oil and the heater problem was part of the gas in the oil issue and at this time honda had no fix for the issue. They did a oil change and told me they would contact me if honda came up with a fix. It |
