Did Honda just fit a drive shaft to the rear and have it going into an empty diff? That's unbelievable - there was absolutely no 4WD! As is often the way, in my life at least, not long after I bought the CRV I became aware the contemporary X-Trail had switchable, working 4WD. One of the car progs of the time (? 5th Gear) group tested those 2 plus a Rav4 and something else, the X-Trail coming out a clear winner in just about every category. Never mind, water under the bridge now.

As the chap said, that's the second fail in three attempts. Not good. Reminds me of the 4WD Cavalier from back in the day that would lunch its tranfer box just by having tyres with different tread depths fitted leaving the owner with a FWD car. This is essentially a very easy way to fuck up any diff and was probably what was behind the expensive diff issues on the V60. If you have an AWD car you absolutely have to maintain the tyres at an even tread depth all round.
