has 199k on the chassis. Top end has been redone. Mileage not certain but was redone last year by prev owner. Runs good though.

No current issues. The car had a tune up and new clutch. It runs good. It does need exhaust tips though.

This should answer almost any question to do with the RT4WD found on various Honda models.
RT4WD = Real-Time 4WD
AWD = All Wheel Drive
FWD = Front Wheel Drive
RWD = Rear Wheel Drive
Honda wrote:
Honda's Real-Time four wheel drive system is designed to provide the benefit of all wheel drive in slippery conditions, without the penalties of extra drag, higher fuel consumption, greater tyre wear and increased noise which accompany conventional four wheel drive systems in conditions when the extra traction is not needed.
The other benefit of Real Time 4WD is that its engagement is completely automatic - there are no extra levers or buttons, the system automatically engages drive to the rear wheels when it senses that the front tyres have started to slip.
The Real-Time 4WD system incorporates a compact transfer case which distributes drive to a propeller shaft which runs to the rear differential. There are also two hydraulic pumps, one driven by the front wheels, the other by the rear wheels. When the CR-V is operating on dry pavement, the front and rear wheels are turning at the same speed, and so are the two pumps. If the front wheels start to turn faster than the rear wheels (due to loss of traction), the pumps turn at different speeds. The resultant differential hydraulic pressure activates a valve body and feeds pressure to a multi-plate clutch, which engages the propeller shaft to the rear differential, thus feeding drive torque to the rear wheels. The amount of drive going to the rear wheels is proportional to the amount of front wheel slippage.
The system automatically disengages under braking, thereby allowing the ABS system to operate.
Q. How quickly do the rear wheels engage drive?
A. The ammount of slippage required to engage the rear wheels is around 3%, and it happens quicker than you could notice.
Q. Can my RT4WD be made into AWD?
A. Yes. You can remove the viscous coupler in the centre of the drive shaft and have a new drive shaft made up.
Q. What gear oil do i use for my RT4WD gearbox and rear differential?
A.
Q. How much power can the system handle?
A. We can only speculate on this topic. Most will agree that the drivetrain can handle around 200-220HP before running into problems however, if you modify any car you are taking it beyond what it was designed for, therefore increasing the risk of failure.
Q. Are there common problems with RT4WD equipped Hondas?
A. We do not have enough of a scope to draw a general concensus, but there have been no major issues reported that we know of.

Sorry the a/c is there but it needs a small hose changed & charged. Here is the only other interior pic I have right now.

THE DASH IS NOT DAMAGED IT JUST HAS TAPE ADHEASIVE. CAN BE REMOVED WITH GOO-GONE.
