cheeryble Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Hi I messaged roughly how much gas my Honda CRV is using. It looks like I got roughly 250 KM for ฿1000. This seems like a hell of a lot, so I got out my OBD two scanner ELM 327 and try it out last night. I’m sorry to come here to ask for interpretation, but I have Parkinson and you can’t use my hands in the morning typing with his voice typing these days. I’ll send the results in the next post or in the next message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralf001 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 So thats approx 11lt/100km. What model CRV ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeryble Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 So I think the photos are back to front 4321 instead of 1234, but apart from that, it would be great if someone could dig out the codes for me I’ve been most grateful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honda CRV, second generation, 2003, very low mileage, I believe, two data, CVT,CVT Haven’t looked at the plugs yet, but it runs beautifully brackets seemingly brackets thought I might as well run the codes first Edited March 17 by cheeryble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

degrub Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Based on the above estimate of 11 litres/100 km, roughly 22 miles/ gal. US, seems reasonable for city type start stop driving. My 2005 crv gets about that, but can be higher if highway driving, closer to 27 mpg. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can see your CRV uses ISO 9141 protocol.. the ELM 327 supports ISO 9141-2... might be why you are get the falses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthainess Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Seems about right, for city driving, does it have different drive modes? like EKO, Sport, normal. do you drive with overdrive on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noobexpat Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 obd2 error codes start with P and then 4 digits. Its not the way to figure out poor gas mileage, especially if the car drives fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that DEGRUVB, The only thing is, did I go into Chiangmai every day and yes When I’m environ, I’m buzzing around and stopping and starting. But it takes a good half hour to get in and out or out each day so that’s at least 40 km a freeway or winding road driving. Hmmmm…… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, Ralph… Yes, I guess I’ll just have to dig all that up so I’m working with the right data. My medication’s have worn off again if you feel like throwing me a bone, or a link, that would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re probably right, In fact, I seem to recall the P codes from Scotty Kilmer. but it was a nice, easy way for a moron to start 🙂 Edited March 17 by cheeryble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have an error code (i think unlikley), your dash display will show a pic of an engine. You could have leaking injectors or from the high pressure fuel pump. The car is too old to be throwing cash at it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HauptmannUK Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 In reply to the OP.... Those screen captures you have posted are command codes from the ELM interface. In other words you are interrogating the firmware of the interface and NOT the vehicle's ECU. My guess is that you are using the wrong software with your ELM interface. That output looks like its from 'ELM Identifier' (software to identify whi่ch type/version of ELM chip that you have). To get codes and live data from the car I suggest using 'Torque Pro'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car is too old to be throwing cash at it though. Not all codes cause the MIL to illuminate. There are literally hundreds of possible faults - not all of them are costly to fix. This Honda (K series engine) is quite prone to faults due to split/perished vacuum pipes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheeryble Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 Good thinking BRIAN but it’s not the special models, it does have overdrive, but I never use it. In fact, I’m not sure how do you know. if I’m driving along, and I press the overdrive on the gear stick I don’t quite understand it’s reaction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeryble Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 This is good stuffmein lieb herr Hauptmann. I’ve heard of the TP Pro talk pro… TORQUE PRO is it by any chance about $50. As we have three cars and plenty of friends with cars, you may just be worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think a simple device like this will do for me. (Nothing to do with the price, of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
