by the way, the crv just got it's MMC, so probably around 2018 pa lalabas yung all-new model.

My CRV 2009 (4x2) is unable to manage an incline paved with grip tiles when the pavement is wet. But my Altis 2014 easily manages that. Wonder.

Maybe because the tires are worn out on the CR-V?

CRV has logged around 35,000 kms. Is it time to replace tires?

Check the tire manufacture date. Tires should be replaced every 5 to 6 years regardless or mileage.

Sorry bout that, I stand corrected. FMC looks like 2017-2018.

Hehe. They would've sold it better if all the camera shots/angles were the same.

CR-V doesn't have much torque down low RPM (specially the 2.0). Just the way Honda makes their engines. But grippier tires would help. Tires tend to become more brittle (harder) and less grippy as they age. Even if they're not worn yet if they spend a lot of time in the sun that would accelerate them getting more brittle. I've seen tires that are only 3 years old with cracks on the tread. These are the ones that spend most of the time in open parking.

I agree with them that it might be the tires. Our stock Bridgestone Duellers are not the stickiest out there. I think these tires are geared more for comfort than performance.

From years of experience and countless braking and handling tests, Dueler HTs are absolute **** in the wet. They're designed for long life. Period. Michelin Latitudes are pricey, but they are more comfortable and grippier.

Sieht sehr gut aus Schöner wäre noch, wenn das neue Radio/Navi oben wäre und das Infodisplay unten. Geht das nicht?
