Scotty,
I'm considering buying a 2019 Honda CRV with a 2.4 liter Earth Dreams GDI engine mated with a CVT. The car is an automatic with 25K miles, private party-one owner, no accidents and no apparent problems. Does this engine have a oil dilution problem or will it develop one? Will the intake valves eventually require cleaning from carbon deposits? What's your opinion on the reliability of this vehicle?
Thank you for your assistance.
Toby

I would not buy any vehicle with GDI or a CVT and especially with the combination of the two. The technology just has not been thoroughly refined to the point where I would have confidence in these systems, similar to AFM.
