- Pangaea_RonExplorerI think that the value of my (4 down towable) 2014 CR-V increased when they changed to the new transmission that is not 4 down towable.

Your owner's manual should give you instructions on doing this. Look under recreational towing, or flat towing in the manual.
I am a rookie RV'er and I'm looking at a Honda CR-V for a toad. However, I see a notice by the towing information. Can someone help me understand what "recirculate" means?
Here is the notice... "Recirculate transmission fluid every eight towing hours."

Capt. Bill, this is a correct statement! I own a 2014 CRV the last year that you can tow them all 4 wheels down. Honda changed to the SRT transmission (same transmission that is in a Subaru) in 2015 and there still using that transmission in the 2016 and 2017 models. Honda by doing this has made a 2014 CRV and down in years harder to get especially for RVers who desire to own them.
Up to the 2014 Honda CR-V is towable, the 2015 and beyond are not.

My 2006 CRV tows very nicely. You should buy it from me!
So, what are you asking for it?
I think they frown on selling stuff here. I sent you a PM for contact. - billkaufmannExplorer

Whatever you consider towing, look in the manual to see if it specifically addresses being towed behind a MH. My 2012 Chevy Sonic is very clear about it. I wouldn't take anyone's word for it.
I have learned about reading the manual the hard way. You are so right.
We were told by a salesman that our 04 Explorer was towable. I should have known better - wildmanbakerExplorer
