This is a standard CR-V problem. As with previous model, the oil in the 4x4 rear differential dual pump clutch is known to degrade prematurely, well before the recommended replacement interval.

Symptoms are a moaning/groaning noise when manoeuvring on full lock. This is easily misdiagnosed as a steering rack problem, which may lead to unnecessary repairs. The solution is to simply replace the dual pump fluid with the latest spec Honda fluid which is called Dual Pump 2 fluid.
