The 2014 Honda CR-V with the 2.4 L engine holds about 4.5 quarts of engine oil with the filter installed (roughly 4.3 liters). If you’re not changing the oil filter, expect about 4.2 quarts (around 4.0 liters).
In this article, we outline the official capacity figures, how they’re measured, and how to verify the oil level accurately. The figures apply to the U.S. specification CR-Vs with the 2.4 L i-VTEC engine and may vary slightly by market or filter type.
Oil capacity figures
The following figures are typical for the 2014 CR-V 2.4 L engine. Capacities can vary slightly depending on the oil filter and whether it is replaced during an oil change.
- With oil filter installed: 4.5 quarts (4.3 liters)
- Without oil filter installed: 4.2 quarts (4.0 liters)
These values provide a practical baseline for planning oil changes. Always confirm by filling to the proper level and checking the dipstick after a brief idle and recheck period.
Practical tips for checking oil level
Steps to verify the oil level on a 2014 CR-V
1) Park on level ground and shut the engine off. Wait a few minutes for oil to settle.
2) Pull the dipstick, wipe it clean, reinsert fully, then pull it out again to read the level.
3) The oil level should be between the full and low marks. If it’s below the full mark, add a small amount of oil and recheck in increments.
4) Use the recommended oil type and viscosity listed in the owner’s manual (typically 0W-20 or 5W-20 depending on market).
Summary
For a 2014 Honda CR-V with the 2.4 L engine, plan on about 4.5 quarts of oil with the filter, or about 4.2 quarts without the filter. Use these figures as a baseline, but always verify the level with the dipstick after topping up and refer to the owner’s manual for the official specification and any market-specific differences.
