2018 CRV 40.1k mi // M1 EP HM 5W30 1.6k mi - Fuel Dilution Bonanza!

Was your CR-V part of any of the recalls for fuel dilution? Has it had any repairs done by Honda? There might be something that Honda can do for you. https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls

If it was mine, I might consider doing a oil change during the middle of winter just to get some of that fuel out of the crank case. What does >5% mean? It could be 10% for all we know based on that report.
From what I have heard MOST of those tiny Honda Turbo G-DI engines have some recall on the fuel pumps. Now, of course Honda has to send you a letter to inform you of this and then the kicker! They also would like to inform you "sorry, no replacement parts are available at this time due to hold ups/back ups in the global supply chain coming from China!" SURPRISE.... or no, I'm sure no one is SURPRISED.
Anyway, Thanks for posting that information website: https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls. I am gonna look into it for the wife's car. 2018 Honda Accord Exl. 1.5 T-GDI engine.
