AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)04/25 Report--

Honda increased its fuel supply last year because of the winter in the north, and the same model of engine is also installed on the CRV and Honda Accord. Yesterday, Honda's L15B series turbocharged engines were named by the famous evaluation agency Ward Motor (the selection agency for Ward's top 10 engines).

The life history of the engine:

The L15B engine is one of a new generation of engine power products released by Honda in 2016, ranging from 1.0 engines to 1.5 and 2.0 engines for its product lines of medium, small and micro models. In China, this series of engines were first carried in the Civic of the 10th generation.

The situation between China and the United States is:

At the end of 2017, domestic CRV users reported the increase and dilution of oil in the 1.5T engine of CRV in the northern region, with individual car owners even punching the cylinder and breaking the engine piston, under the pressure of complaints from car owners, the intervention of the quality supervision department. Honda recalls 600000 Civic and CRV models with this model.

There is also a problem of increasing oil in the CRV in the United States, while Honda is recalling the same type of engines in the northern subregions of the United States in the form of "upgrades." Other states with warm climates will no longer upgrade the scope of service.

According to one owner of Ward, the increase in oil in his CRV still occurred, while the oil was 2.5cm higher than the oil scale, while owners in other relatively hot regions such as Arizona, Nevada, Texas and Louisiana reported an increase in oil in their cars. And are the above questions really about the causes of climate problems?

Problem resolution:

In China's third-party websites and individual car owners' forums, users reported that the recalled models still showed an increase in organic oil, and some users even reflected a decline in power and increased fuel consumption after the recall. The replacement of the second generation 1.5t engine mainly replaces the valve of the engine oil pump and redesigns the oil pan of the engine. So far, there have been no problems with models with second-generation engines.

Industry insiders said that if the throttle problem is not properly solved, it will cause a serious image decline for Honda (Honda is the world's largest maker of internal combustion engines). Some American car owners report that their CRV is unable to accelerate and cannot start, and in serious cases, they need to call for help on the highway. Car owners in the United States have already sued for the increase in oil, and if the second-generation engines continue to do the same, it will be a fatal blow to Honda's small-engine turbocharged models in recent years.
