My 2015 Honda CR-V car started jerking on a slight incline, so I parked it. I later drove it carefully about 8 miles home. The warning lights stayed on, and an OBD scan showed code P0087. Also, my car has been having an oil leak for a long time… I think it’s from the cover gasket, which I will replace this weekend. I’ll also replace the spark plugs.
From what I’ve read, the problem may be the in-tank fuel pump or the high-pressure fuel pump (HPFP). Does that sound reasonable, and what should I test before replacing either one?
I’ve done several car repairs before, so I’m comfortable following detailed instructions. Any advice would be appreciated.
There’s two fuel pumps involved. It’s far more likely to be the high pressure pump as this sees the most stress. That’s located at the top of the engine and fairly easy to access. Care still needs to be taken to relieve pressure before starting any work.
Is motor DI?
Does this motor suffer from carbon fouling on intake valves?
Should you pull intake and inspect intake valves?
Same earth dreams di engine as accord. Crv used it 2015-2019, believe it was only on the base lx for 2018-19.
Dad’s 2019 1.5t crv had the in tank.pumo replaced under a recall that wouldn’t apply to a 2015, dealer wanted it brought in with less than half a tank, would have been great if he knew that when booking the service.
This has been very helpful information so that I can refer to the Honda Accord 2015 when searching for solutions. Thank you!
