Ordering was simple and I could split the payment, no problem. Delivery was quicker than expected — and you don't pay freight or send the old motor back. Engine was nice and clean on inspection. Very happy with it.

Engine was a good match. Just done the 500km break-in oil change and it's running well. Got the car back on the road fairly quickly — wouldn't hesitate to go this way again. Thanks guys.

As advertised, perfect fitment. Awesome warranty, delivered in 2 days. Somehow it was cheaper and easier to get this new crate engine supplied and delivered than it was to source a second-hand engine. Have recommended to others.

Honda R20A1 Engine

Remanufactured Honda R20A1 Engine

This professionally remanufactured Honda R20A1 Engine is suitable for selected 2007 to June 2012 Honda CR-V RE-series vehicles originally fitted with the 2.0L R20A1 petrol engine. It provides a dependable replacement for customers requiring a Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine after their original motor has suffered excessive internal wear, overheating, low oil pressure, timing-chain damage or another major mechanical failure.

The R20A1 is a 1,997cc naturally aspirated inline four-cylinder petrol engine. It features Honda’s SOHC 16-valve i-VTEC technology, PGM-FI electronic fuel injection and a chain-driven timing system. Factory output is approximately 110kW and 190Nm, although the final output depends on the vehicle specification, engine-management system and condition of the components transferred from the original motor.

How the Honda R20A1 Engine Is Remanufactured

Every Honda R20A1 Engine is assembled using a professionally prepared cylinder block and cylinder head. The major castings are cleaned, inspected and measured before assembly. The sealing surfaces, cylinder bores, bearing surfaces, valve seats, oil passages and coolant passages are checked as part of the remanufacturing process.

The cylinder block and cylinder head are remanufactured because brand-new original Honda castings are not normally available for this engine. The remaining internal wear components are replaced with new parts according to the engine’s final build specification.

Professionally remanufactured components
  • Honda cylinder block
  • Honda cylinder head
  • Cylinder sealing surfaces where machining is required
  • Cylinder bores and bearing surfaces
  • Valve seats and valve guides where required
  • Oil and coolant passages
New internal components
  • New crankshaft
  • New inlet and exhaust valves
  • New pistons
  • New piston rings
  • New main bearings
  • New connecting-rod bearings
  • New timing chain
  • New timing-chain guides
  • New timing-chain tensioner
  • New timing gears where included in the build specification
  • New valve-stem seals
  • New engine gaskets and seals
  • New internal wear components used during final assembly
Why we spell this out. This information is provided so customers clearly understand the construction of the replacement engine. The block and cylinder head are remanufactured Honda components, while the internal rotating, timing and sealing components are replaced with new parts.

What Is Included With the Honda R20A1 Engine?

The Honda R20A1 Engine is supplied as an assembled long motor. A long motor generally includes the cylinder block, crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons, cylinder head, valves, camshaft assembly, timing-chain system, rocker cover and sump.

The exact appearance and inclusions may vary slightly between production batches. Customers should use the current product photographs and written invoice as the final confirmation of what is supplied.

Components normally transferred from the original engine
  • Intake manifold
  • Exhaust manifold
  • Fuel injectors and fuel rail
  • Throttle body
  • Alternator
  • Starter motor
  • Air-conditioning compressor
  • Engine wiring harness
  • Engine-management sensors
  • ECU and security components
  • Ignition coils
  • Engine mounts and brackets
  • Flywheel, clutch or automatic-transmission flexplate
  • Vehicle-specific sump and oil pickup where required
  • Cooling-system outlets, pipes and hoses
  • Any other model-specific external accessories
Inspect before transferring. All transferred components must be inspected before installation. A damaged injector, contaminated intake system, restricted radiator or faulty external accessory can damage the replacement Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine.

Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine Compatibility

This Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine is intended for selected third-generation Honda CR-V models manufactured from 2007 to June 2012. Applicable vehicles may include selected RE1, RE2 and RE5 chassis variants originally fitted with the R20A1 engine.

Some vehicles registered during 2012 are still the earlier RE-series CR-V and may therefore use the R20A1. This is why the listing includes selected 2012 vehicles. However, the vehicle’s engine code must still be checked before purchasing.

Vehicle specifications vary between Australia, Europe, Japan, Asia and other markets. Different versions can use different engine-code suffixes, sumps, mounts, manifolds, sensors, wiring systems, emission equipment and transmission arrangements.

Important Information for 2012–2016 CR-V Owners

2012 is the year the CR-V changed generationThe fourth-generation Honda CR-V RM series was introduced during 2012. Australian RM1 2.0L vehicles generally use the R20A5 engine, while vehicles from other markets may use the R20A6 or R20A9.
R20A1 · RE SERIES · THIS ENGINENOT R20A5 · RM1NOT R20A6NOT R20A9

An R20A1 should not be advertised as a guaranteed direct replacement for an R20A5, R20A6 or R20A9. Although these motors belong to the same Honda R20 engine family, differences can exist in the cylinder head, compression, sensors, emission controls, accessories, engine-management system and vehicle installation.

Check your generation first. Customers with a 2012 vehicle must check whether it is the earlier RE series or the later RM series. Customers with a 2013–2016 CR-V should not order this engine unless the original engine is stamped R20A1 or written compatibility has been provided.

Why Choose a Remanufactured Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine?

A professionally assembled Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine can provide a safer replacement option than purchasing an unknown second-hand motor. A used engine may have an incomplete service history, internal sludge, timing-chain wear, low oil pressure or previous overheating damage that cannot be identified through an external inspection.

Our remanufacturing process allows the cylinder block and cylinder head to be inspected and prepared before assembly. The engine is then built using a new crankshaft, new valves, new pistons and rings, new bearings, new timing components and new gaskets and seals.

No exchange engine is required. This means the original engine can remain with the installer until the replacement arrives and its external components, mounting points and fitment have been compared.

Common R20A1 Engine Problems to Check

Before installing a replacement Honda R20A1 Engine, the workshop must determine why the original engine failed. Installing a replacement without correcting the original fault can cause the remanufactured engine to suffer the same damage.

The workshop should inspect the vehicle for:

  • Previous overheating or coolant loss
  • Cooling-system leaks
  • A blocked or restricted radiator
  • A faulty thermostat
  • A damaged water pump
  • Incorrect cooling-fan operation
  • Low engine-oil level
  • Low or unstable engine-oil pressure
  • Oil contamination or internal sludge
  • Timing-chain, guide or tensioner wear
  • Damaged or leaking fuel injectors
  • Restricted intake or exhaust components
  • Faulty sensors or damaged wiring
  • Damaged engine mounts
  • Transmission, clutch or torque-converter faults

Professional Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine Installation

This Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine must be installed by a qualified automotive workshop. Before installation, the replacement long motor must be placed beside the original engine so the installer can compare the sump, mounts, brackets, manifolds, sensors and transmission connection.

The cooling system should be completely flushed. The radiator, thermostat, water pump, cooling fans, hoses and radiator cap must be inspected and replaced where necessary. The intake system, exhaust system and fuel injectors should also be checked for contamination or damage.

The engine-oil system must be correctly primed before the first start. New oil, a new oil filter and the correct coolant must be used. The installer must confirm oil pressure immediately after starting the engine and monitor the engine temperature during the initial running procedure.

Scan and relearn before returning the vehicle. The vehicle should be scanned for stored fault codes. Any required throttle-body, idle, crankshaft-position or engine-management relearn procedures must be completed before the vehicle is returned to service.

Warranty, Delivery and Australian Support

Every remanufactured Honda R20A1 Engine includes a one-year product warranty, subject to the written warranty conditions and professional installation requirements.

Free standard delivery is available to eligible business and commercial addresses across Australia. Additional freight charges may apply for residential addresses, tail-lift delivery, remote locations or destinations outside the standard freight network.

Installation labour, transferred accessories, towing, accommodation, vehicle hire and faults caused by the vehicle’s cooling, lubrication, fuel, electrical or engine-management systems are not automatically covered by the product warranty.

You can also browse our complete range of crate engines for other Honda and replacement-engine options. Independent application information is available in the Honda R20A1 application catalogue.

Confirm Your Honda R20A1 Engine Before Ordering

Please contact our team with the VIN, build date, complete engine number and clear photographs of the original motor. We will use this information to help determine whether the replacement Honda R20A1 Engine is suitable.

Do not order using the vehicle model and registration year alone. Confirming the complete R20A1 engine code is the safest way to ensure that the replacement Honda CR-V 2.0 Engine is suitable for the vehicle.
