2002 Honda CR-V Service and Repair Manual
This 2002 Honda CR-V factory service and repair manual is built around one specific configuration of the vehicle, so the torque values, wiring paths, and diagnostic steps you get are the ones Honda published for a CR-V fitted with the 2.4L L4 (K24A1) engine, not a generic stand-in from another model year.
Engines covered
- 2.4L inline-four (144 cu in) — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
Body styles covered
- 4-door sport utility
Trims covered
- Base
- EX
- LX
Known issues on the 2002 CR-V. No recalls are on federal record for this model year, and no complaints or technical service bulletins are logged for the year either. That leaves the factory procedures as the clearest record of how Honda intended this K24A1-equipped CR-V to be serviced and diagnosed.
Whether you're timing a routine service interval or working through the K24A1's fuel and ignition systems, it keeps every step and spec tied to your specific 2002 CR-V.
