My wife and I just bout this car and I have just noticed this problem. It’s an 02 CR-V with an auto transmission, AWD, and about 73K on the clock.
The vibrations is not really bad, but it’s there and I’d like to diagnose it while it’s still under warranty (60 days), otherwise I wouldn’t care about it much. The vibration seems to be related to speed (not engine speed). At highway speeds I can’t notice it, but it may be just be too high of a frequency to notice. It’s mostly under acceleration or going up a steep hill, and sometimes when stopped at a light while in gear.
It’s not unlike when I put a cheap aftermarket CV axle on my old Subaru (though that was worse).We bout it from a Toyota dealer, so I’d like to be able to tell them what needs to be done rather than the symptoms.
Thank

if your feeling vibrations when stopped.Then I would suggest the
engine is either misfiring or voltage leaks.threw in a couple extra.

Thanks, but I’m quite sure it’s not engine related. It’s hard to explain; but it feels like the engine in running good while it’s doing this, oh and no codes. At a stop it’s quite mild if there at all, it’s really more of an acceleration thing, and more of a hard acceleration thing…. but not too hard… I’m thinking CV, bent axle, propeller shaft, transmission or wheel bearing.It’s very important that only Honda fluid is used in the transmission. It’s also important that the fluid level be checked with the engine OFF and not running. I often find transmission problems with Hondas are caused by not following these practices. That said you might want to check the fluid level and condition. If you need to change the fluid this video can help.
