Thanks to Louis for pointing out that I'd called it a CRV in an earlier post :P

CDR was spotless 10-12K miles ago. Now the bottom half is covered in oily grime. Manometer test shows a 1" delta at idle, about 4" delta at 2000 rpm. Should I wipe it down and let it be or does this mean it needs a new hose or grommet?

Thanks,
Sixto

How many miles on it (CDR) it is recommended that it be changed every 30,000 miles. It is also recommended that the valve cover o-ring be changed at the same time.
