2006 Honda CR-V Basic review from Philippines
"Terrible electronic throttle system"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
A testament to Honda reliability.
General comments?
Horrible electronic throttle system.
This new electronic throttle system that Honda has incorporated to this model is just silly. I don't know why they had to shift to an electronic system with this kind of performance, when the previous system just works great and is very reliable as well.
This is the only downside to this model, but unfortunately for me it has somehow ruined the whole feel of the car. If you have driven the first gen CRV and this model, you would know what I mean.
