Hell yeah hood job!!!!!
Duhhhh bro !!!!!!

@Theo Kelvin It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much, you really help me out!
@Elliot Jerome No problem :D
Great video. I am a mechanic's daughter; you make great videos, and I appreciate the help. This is my first foreign car. My knowledge base is GMCs before 1970, especially without power steering. I live at an apartment complex, so I am limited in what I can perform as self-service.
Yeah thanks!! Wow that goes back 80s well u as much as u can these cars is simple to maintain
Excellent vid. No bs just well explained and demonstrated expert how-to advice 👍🏽
Yup thank u!!!
Thank you! I did it on my 2017 accord’
Learn a lot from this channel, I will try this over the weekend as a project.
Nice good job!!!! I have good videos coming out
Great video, very straight forward.
Thanks a lot. God bless you and your friends
I have that funnel. It does make it easier and a little quicker. I did a drain and fill around the five year mark, 55,000 miles just because I wanted too.
Nice good job!!! And yeah love the funnel
Thanks for the straight-to-the-point instruction. I will be using your tutorial with a 2008 Fit.
No problem !!
Thanks for the video man it helped out a lot. ✌🏻😎
Rb thank you manito 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 On my way to pick some up from hillside honda in queens to do the transmission too. Thank you again I appreciate it
No problem I’m glad ur doing it urself !! Same couple hounded $$$
Great video!!! Lots of detail. Keep making auto How To videos.
Will do my friend got good videos planned and about to do shooting of them soon everything in my mind memory experience will be put up on my channel in all and every video
Appreciate the info my man!
Great video, thanks for sharing 😊👍
Thanks for the video always interesting.
Nice work playa. Your video is perfect. Exactly what I need. Keep up the good work. LIKE!
Yup easy to do
Thanks for the video and advice. If all the dealer does is drain in fill, that's all I'm doing. :)
That’s all u need to do
Thanks. Helped me a lot.
This is great you r the best….explained perfectly!!!
Glad u liked my video!! Always here to help don’t forget to subscribe
Perfect video. Super job and explanation. Made my job easier. Thanks
Yup thank u
Bro thanks for the video I’m doing it myself definitely getting that tool also
Nice update me once u do it let me know how it went
Thanks for the great video it was really helpful 🙏🍺👍
No problem glad it helped u!!
Thank you very much!
Also a good practice is to change out the Thermostat after about two or three anti-Freeze changes too. Easy to do on this car and would save some possible damage to the engine if the 'stat gets stuck closed. An easy to forget or overlooked item.
Yup avoid over heating issues and mistery to resolve the issue
What are your thoughts on doing a proper flush and changing from the Honda OEM coolant to (gasp!) an aftermarket coolant so you can upgrade to HOAT coolant?
Props to you my man, just saved like $150 doing it myself 💪🏾
Nice good job!
I will be doing this form my 2014 CRV in coming weeks. This videos surely helps! Thank you for sharing. Since, I do not have spill free funnel, do I have to fill reservoir first before running engine for 20 minutes? To confirm, I have to put heat at max and fan speed at minimum during 20 minutes run.
Same process full the radiator much as u can fill the reservoir half way put the radiator cap on since u don’t get the funnel and let it run for 10 minutes then shut it off let it cool
Off once it’s nice and cold fills radiator and reservoir if it goes down and run for 10 more minutes should be good
awesome video man, you saved people $300 to change the fluid!
Nice job!! And done by urself is better
300$? around here its 140$ but still to high..ill do it myself with this helpful vid!
I just watch this guy when I try to search something because no bs and he explains really good.thank you sir.
Yup thank you bro!!!
Excellent tutorial video sir! Thank you. I like your explanations and the lighting. Great job and you made it look easy. Saved me lots of money and using OEM fluids.
Question, are there any differences from this 4 cylinder to the 9th generation accord v6?
What u mean by difference ? In the service?
Is the engine running while the old coolant is drained ? So not removing the drain plug altogether ? In other videos theres a drain plug on the engine block as well, not sure if 2003 CRV has one.
Seriously you should be a instructor. I have been an instructor for over 4 years and u have a good flow to instruction. Think about it bro!
Yeah I though about that maybe I will open school!!!
Best coolant flush video
Thank u bro this video will maintain the cooling systym of all the honda owners
Great job
Make a video on how to change the transmission fluid on a 2020 Honda Accord 2.0t 10 speed
Great video brother! I have a question how often should I change the manual transmission fluid on my 2016 Honda Civic lx? And also antifreeze.. thanks in advance! Good videos!! Keep it coming
U can change the transmission gear oil like ever 30-40k miles and antifreeze every 60k miles
@@RBTheMechanic thanks man 🙏👍🏻
This is a partial flush. It's better than not doing anything. If you are particular do the flush/refill procedure.... then heat up (idle or drive it) the engine until thermostat opens (WATER TEMP GAUGE STOPS GOING UP AT A LITTLE LESS THAN HALF OF GAUGE RANGE), let circulate for a bit... let cool off... repeat until drained fluid looks new.
As long as u do ur coolant change on time u shouldn’t have to go beyond and over I had bad experience with block valve it never stopped leak now I don’t touch it it’s ok
Great video
Brother thanks always for your help and share your experience, you only need drain for the radiator right ?
Yuppp u can also grain out the block but if u do it regularly this is the way
Brother make a video how replace fuel injectors, thanks for the good videos brother
I don’t get those lot since they don’t fail so easily but I sure will do video once I get a job for that
Great video, thank you for posting! when I did it, the drained fluid looked same as new from the jug.
Yeah it dose look new but it
May not have strength to not free in winter
Thanks for the informations
Liked and subscribed
Welcome
Thank you bro..gonna do this n save me 100$😎
Yup
Hey bro..so iam about to do this finally..my question.. is that all you need to do is squeeze the hose to burb the ststem..and how do you know when to stop squeezing the hose? Thank you!😎
When using funnel system, we do you fill the resoviror back up, I saw you put extra back in it at the end is this the only time or before you turn car on?
That’s the only time. But u can check it again few few drives it might go down a bit
My accord only took somewhere between 1 and 1.25 gallons. Also, the fan kicked on shortly after startup when the car wasnt even warmed up yet. I used a lily and besides the few bubbles that came out when I squeezed the hose, the coolant level in the lily didn't really go down after the initial fill. I let it idle for quite a while and test drove it and everything seemed fine, so hopefully it's ok. I'll check it in a couple days
Yeah check it should be ok
Thank you sir!
You are welcome!
Any 2020 civic sports with 2.0 coolant changes?
“bada bing bada boom” saved $100+. Thanks!
Good job bro!!!
Sir, I have a 2006 Accord but I want to also flush out the coolant in the engine block. Where would the drain plug for the engine be on that year of accord?
You can drain it from the radiator it should be fair enough should be about the same spot as this accord just give it good time to drain out completely if u want to go further change out the thermostats since it’s 2006 accord pretty old thermostats if u haven’t changed it ever
Hey RB! Thanks for the video.
Just flushed the old Coolant and added new one, when I went to turn the engine on the fan turned on twice as usual. Left the heat on and fan high but it does not seem to be heating up. After 20 min it heat up for a few minutes and then the air was cold again.
Did I do something wrong? What do you advice I should do?
Might want to look at your thermostat
Or maybe there is air somewhere in your system and bubbles
I have a 14 v6 accord and was gonna replace the coolant, wondering if I need to find the bolt on the engine block and let that bleed out too
Not necessarily u should be good with drain and fill it’s perfectly fine this way should take about 1.5 gallon
Was gonna do my 18' Accord 2.0...unfortunately is different. Drain plug more on driver's side, can't reach from above and you have to remove metal skid plate underneath. I had already bought the coolant at Honda and the same funnel as in the video at Autozone....took the funnel back and went to a local shop where they used the coolant I bought and just charged me $65 labor. I got the Coolant at Honda Dealer $17 per gallon.
Well either way you got it done and now it’s up to date good job!!
@@RBTheMechanic It's early...lol, just got the car new to me with 30K miles...have changed the oil, brake fluid, coolant, and tomorrow is transmission fluid drain/refill at the dealer. Trying to make sure this car lasts.
@@jeffpowell4324 yup cool that’s how it suppose to be I do transmission flush on my 2004 accord every 30k miles it’s runs super good no slippage or any other type of issue with transmission gonna make it last 10 more years
@@RBTheMechanic Thanks for putting out straightforward no BS content. Was helpful, although I couldn't do myself, I asked the mechanic if he minded if I watched from the sidelines. He was cool with that and he did what you did so I'm good. Take care and thanks again!
@@jeffpowell4324how did he access the plug?
I have a 2016 civic ext 1.5L and I can't find the petcock. I think it's behind the intake resonator. Do you have any advice how I'd drain the coolant? Will it be better to just drain from the lower hose?
There has to be drain on the radiator just like I show on this accord other wise let the lower radiator pipe loose
Please make video for 2018 Honda odyssey coolant flush.
I don't know where is coolant flush valve of 2018 Honda Odyssey.
Will do waiting on car for customer to agree to do the work
My radiator fan doesn’t come on after I’ve drained and filled it back up. I let the car run several times with the heat on high and the fan on low and medium. But the engine isn’t getting hot. It’s right where it should be. Any idea why? Possible bad radiator fan but I heard it working perfectly fine before I changed my coolant today
Well what year is the honda... you might have the let the thermostats open up it take 12-20 minutes as long as it dosent over heat keep an eye on the gauge and let the car run and wait for fans to come on Honda’s are really easy and simple on coolant system
Was thinking about going ahead and doing my 2013 accord with this, as I don’t think any shop has done it yet, not having any issues though, think some factory coolant still left in there. Should I still proceed to flush if no issues at 129K miles?
Yes flush it hood for winter !! Then ur set for next few years!!!
Thank you. What do you do with the used coolant.
I have drum for old coolant once’s it fills up I dispose it propperly company that pick up oil also take coolant but they charge lot
I have a 2019 honda accord sport 2.0, is this the same process for the year I mentioned?
Yeah same process but just tighter spot to reach from top drain it from bottom but over all process is same
I was waiting and waiting with the engine running. The coolant was just dripping. The fans did not start. It is 60F here so maybe that is why? The engine temp gauge was in the middle. I got nervous and turned the car off. Then more coolant came rushing after turning the engine off. The total coolant collected including the reservoir was 1.2 gallons. Any idea? Is this enough? Should I let the car idle for even longer watching the temp gauge?
No problem drive the car and do a small trip grocery or somthing then when u come
Back let the car cool off totally for hour or 2 then top off radiator and resorvar and ur good!!
i have one more question where can i find the screw torque for each >>service manual?? my car didnt bring that when i bought it
Might want to ask that parts department at dealer they can order one or check on ebay
Should we give a rinse with distilled water before filling? Do I need 2 gallons just to be sure?
Don’t need to put in water if ur doing the coolant change on time yes u need 2 gallons u will have left over
Is the reservoir cap tight on both methods with and without the funnel ?
Yup
i have 2016 acura ILX with 2.4L engine. Since acura is Honda do you think its the same type of project as you just did? Im at 54K miles.
Also i saw you mentioning You have worked on Infiniti/Nissan vehicles. I have 2016 QX50 3.7L AWD. Is the flush similar to Honda?
I do have the "lily" as well i just purchased.
Yup same thing might be a bit diffrent set up but same same process
What about purging the air? Isn’t there a bolt that gets opened?
This car no it’s easy with dinner system u just let it burp out
Thanks for the great video! I have a question though. I’ll be using a basic funnel to pour in the fresh coolant. Do i need to fill it up all the way in the radiator and then half way between low and full in the reservoir before running the engine with the heat on?
Fill the radiator and I would fill more than half I’m sure it will suck it in
@@RBTheMechanic Thanks for the advice and the great video
After you burp the system and have let the fans come on twice to circulate through the system, do you let the car cool down before taking off the lily or can you take it off right away and just put on the radiator cap?
Yes let it cool off u less u can manage quickly and not burn ur self
My son has a 2014 Honda Accord Sport, he needs to add antifreeze and went AutoZone to get fluid but they asked him what color the fluid was. What color should the fluid be for this vehicle? And is AutoZone a good place to get the antifreeze?
It’s blue yeah I can get it from there just get the proper one they make it specially for honda color is blue
my reservoir was low so i added some 50/50 antifreeze by super tech into the reservoir. is that ok? or should i do a full drain and fill with the honda oem antifreeze?
Do flush with original honda fluid
drain plug for my Honda Accord is super tight I couldn’t crack it loose with my hand. By any chance did you know any tool that can loosen it?
On the radiator I use small plyer don’t brake it just turn it but and then by hand
Hi there, I want to know if my Toyota Camry 2011 2.5L a Dynamic Force Engine ?
Not sure what your asking me rephrase please
What kinda coolant should i use for my 2017 honda pilot
This same one!!!
Vacuum fill, takes about 5 minutes (or less) to refill once drained. No need to run the car/have thermostat/fans cycle.
I usually do that with nissans and Infiniti
after how many miles you recommend love your videos
Bank u!! I would say 60k miles or 3 years what which ever comes first
Is this something I need to do if my passenger side air is cold but the driver and back are warm?
No this is only to keep engine cool and give u hear. … put the ac on see if both sides get cold? If only one side is cold then there is issue with other side that hot check ur air blend door motor to see if it operates
If you put the cap on shouldn’t it be left unlocked to let the air escape when not using the funnel system?
Nope it creates pressure and when it u pressures it sucks from reservoir
Thanks
Welcome
Thanks good info for a noob question can I just add antifreeze/coolant to the reserve for right now
If it’s low yes u can
@@RBTheMechanic thanks
Any worry about air in the system?
How would you deal with that? The yellow funnel?
Not on these Hondas they self bleeding
Hi I have a 2016 civic and wanting to do a coolant flush but there’s so many ways to do it. Is it the same?
Same way as this
Excellent video! Will a flush require two of those antifreeze jugs?
Yup takes about 1.5
@@RBTheMechanic Thank you! 👍🏻
I have a 2014 Acura TSX. If I don’t have the same funnel system you have. Fill up the radiator and tighten the cap, fill up the reservoir and tighten the reservoir cap also ? And then run until fan kicks on twice and refill ?
Yup u just need to check the coolant level few times once’s it cool down it will suck In from reserve
@@RBTheMechanic thanks! I just wasn’t sure if the reservoir cap should have been tight after watching several times. Appreciate it.
how often should I change my antifreeze. the dealer told me mine needs to be changed. I'm at 68,000 miles. Ive done everything on my car besides this
Every 60k miles
Where do you take the old coolant for recycling?
I call Larcos oil they pick up oil and coolant
Brilliant Sir.
how often we should change it ?
Every 60k miles
Hey RB, I have a 2013 Honda Accord LX with the 2.4L engine and had a question about the coolant reservoir level. When my engine is cold and has sat overnight, the coolant in the reservoir reads exactly at the "min" line. After a drive and getting the engine fully warmed up, it is about 1/3 of the way between "min" and "max". Do you suggest I top off my coolant reservoir, or should I be good for now?
Thanks for the help and keep the vids coming!
I would top it off
I just bought some Honda Genuine coolant from the dealership. It says “Extended Life Type 2” instead of “Long Life Type 2”. I’m 99% sure they are the same thing, but I just wanted to double check with you. Thanks!
When do I know to change my coolant? Does a sign pop up on my dashboard? I have a 2013 Honda Accord
No signs u just do it as regular Maintance at certain milages there will be no signs or indications to tell u usully 60k miles is good idea or 3 years what ever comes first
Love your videos! Is there a difference between this and what the dealerships do when hooking up the machine to extract all the old fluid from the heater core and engine block entirely? Is that really more effective or is this process just as effective?
I don’t think I need to do All that if u love ur car and u flush it regularly it should be good just doing what I do I been doing that on my honda since 2004
@@RBTheMechanic ah okay nice to hear thank you! The vehicle is over 100k miles and this would be the first coolant service done to it. That’s why I didn’t know if there was a huge difference between the drain and fill, and hooking up the machine that “supposedly” removed any contaminates that may be present, per what the dealerships have said.
Do you ever recommend flushing it the old school way with any liquid solvents or water and flushing it multiple times until the system is completely clear and rid of the old coolant?
@@mxgf514p7 o I would do drain and fill
Once we drain the entire coolant , How many jugs ( gallons ) of new antifreeze do we need to fill in the radiator?
If u wanna go beyond and above open the valve on engine block drain out completeeeeee and u need 2 gallons
This is why i love hondas.
Easyyyy
@@RBTheMechanic do u think it nessary....to open engine drain bolt? I have 12 civic 1.8l. Also when should I flush coolant. Heard...every 30k or 2 years
@@Killmonize no if u keep up with regular Maintance on time flush the coolant then I wouldn’t do that unless u use the coolant for years and years and years and put 200k miles on it then flush out completly
@@RBTheMechanic ok thank you. Yah I didn't think so lol
When is a good mileage to change it. Now I have 2017 accord
I have a 2017 Accord Sport se with 80,000, no overheating but I smell coolant when driving and parked, any ideas on whats happening
I would check look around radiator pipes and by water pump to see if it’s leaking any of those areas
Hi, could I mix honda antifreeze coolant type 2 with other brands?
I have done it shouldn’t be issue
Do you believe changing your coolant is enough to protect the system from corrosion? Or do I need to do a full flush ?
As long as u do this in time u should be good
Is the Honda brand a must when changing Antifreeze or can I use a different brand?
Blue u got to use it’s the best
Why wouldn’t you finish showing the complete process? Once the thermostat opens, will the overflow tank fill to its proper level, or do you have to add it to the full line, if it doesn’t?
I did
Hey RB, thanks for the detailed vid. I just bought a 2016 Accord with 23k miles. I don’t know if the coolant has ever been changed. Even though the miles are low, should I be changing the coolant cos the car is 8 years old and it could be the original fluid? Thanks.
Change it!! Start fresh
Will do. Thanks!
2012 CRV. How often. Dealer says 70,000 but that makes me a bit nervous. Trying to make it to 200.000 before I replace thermostat and hoses, water pump. At 138,000 now but had this service last done at 98,000 3 years ago. Thanks!
Yeah these go for long time
I bought a pink colored coolant for "recent model cars" ,however mine is colored blue on my 14 honda crv, it only needs very little on the reservoir . Is it a good idea can I mix them, or should I go OEM?
Thanks for your help!
Never mix. Always go with same as what’s in it. I’d always go OEM
How much coolant will my 2020 honda civic need I just replaced it and purge it now my heater kicked on thank God but now I filed up the resivor 4 times allready and I don't know if I have a small leak or what's
I would check for leak but will burp it self and keep going down but not 4 times usully I measure how much came out capacity is like 2 gallons if u empty the whole block
