Engine light on.
Valve cover leaking bad.
Wheel bearing bad.
I love CRX's. Has to be one of the coolest Japanese cars ever made. This is my second CRX. I had an '87 with auto transmission previously. It was quick too. The Si I bought now needs work but that's some of the fun of having it to me.
What was the result of the engine light on? I have the same problem and cannot trace the fault! Thanks - shane@carenthusiast.co.uk.
Plug it into a computer.
You can go to a chain autoparts store and buy a Code Reader that will tell you what the engine light means... Even better, you can push the ERASE button on the reader and TURN THE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT OFF!!
