According to the owners manual, car should be run to normal operating temperature then turn engine OFF and check the level.
That would make sense, this guy is getting the same reading I am with fluid half way up the stick and not changing. He calls it splatters but I call in misinformation.
Exactly
Thank you. Appreciate you taking the time to make the video for us all.
Ever since I fixed that axle seal I Denver added a whole bunch of fluid back in I only had putted one small bottle in them 6$ bottles the other day I checked the dust stick there was hardly anything on it like small tiny spec but I didn't know u need 4 bottles of it so ima go get 3 more today
I would flush it and then add correct amount fluid to level
@@RBTheMechanic there wasn't nothing to flush Becuase the fluid leaked out every time I would refill it when the seal was broken I only had added one over the time frame from the time it got fixed and I didn't learn to wasn't enough till my boy told me u needed atleast 3 more bottles
Thank you 🙏🏾
Welcome
How much fluid it’s needed from the bottom dot to fill it up to the top dot of the dipstick?
There’s no number try one 1/2 quart and check
Im getting a honda accord V6 2005 tomorrow and im watching all sorts of videos to know how to change oil, for the most part everything is the same but some people say leave car running and hot when checking engine and others say turn off car and check 60 seconds after no more than 90 seconds. Which way would be preferable and work better ?
*when checking oil i mean *
U should be good either way
@@RBTheMechanicwhat if u checked it and it had tiny tiny specs ? And then after cleaning it nothing on it ?
Yes you will get a wrong reading guys if engine is running ,,lol,,I learned this the hard way
To reinforce what others have said in the comments when checking a Honda Accord's trans fluid level, the car should be at operating temperature, meaning the fan will go on. Then, TURN off the car and the vehicle is on a flat surface. Wait a minute, then check the fluid to determine the level.
Ok
You did everything right except leaving the car on
Sorry but car has to be running to get correct reading other wise it will show high and once the car start it will go below level
@@RBTheMechanic
Actually, you need warm the car then turn it off and then check fluids level after 60 seconds but before 90 seconds.
Still thanks for the video.
EDIT: I've seen your other post about your experience at Honda. I now understand your point of view. Cheers.
@@RBTheMechanic I am going to assume as you have. The dipstick level is supposed to measure the higher level of fluid, and not the running level of fluid. They designed it so that you check the fluid with the engine off at operating temperature 1 minute to 1.5 minutes after you shut off the engine. That is when the dipstick reads the correct level. Not when it is lower and pumping through the system with the engine on.
Now you have assumed that you check it when it is lower with the engine running. Not how it was designed. With the higher level when the engine is off. You have been overfilling this whole time. What's worse, is you have been promoting and defending this choice.
They likely designed it this way to destroy more transmissions since they know mechanics won't take the time to learn how to properly check the fluids, which are very specific and only within a short time frame.
How can I find a low circuit on my car
i’m looking a transmission v6 honda accord 3.0l 06-07
Which engine oil is best for honda accord 2003?
I use Mobil 1 synthetic I have 2004 accord
Do you recommend changing the transmission filter on this vehicle?
Yes
@@RBTheMechanic it's not in my manual and neither Honda dealerships said it was anything they'd recommend. I'm not sure if they new about it. Neither did my local shop. I have a 2007 Honda Accord SE V6, will this be a lot harder on a V6?
@@tehxii7706 no one dose it but some are inside some external connected to pipes
@@tehxii7706 manual transmission dosent have it it got gear oil
@@RBTheMechanic owners manual, sorry. It's not mentioned in my owners manual
good video but i have to say I have had two different views on checking this cars trans fluid. In the past i have had cars where you have to have the car running to check Trans Fluid levels.....however I have had numerous say that now, with the honda, you don't need the car running. It has to be hot, you should go thru geers, but at the end check levels when NOT running??? I will have to verify with my mechanic on this OR Honda Dealers! Thanks for video.
Yes u can do either way
Wasn`t the engine supposed to be shut off before checking it ?
U can quickly do it when it shut off I do it with engine on
Said if it was low you can fill it, didn't say where the filling hole is? Do I pour it down the dipstick hole? That doesn't seem right.
Yes dip stick
Mine is low again below the dot almost it was a year ago and I added some and it stopped switching gears hard now it’s doing it again and my brake fluid is low idk where it went
Check for leaks under the car and same for brake also some times master cylinders leak and burn off the fluid by sucking through vaccum line on booster
@@RBTheMechanic my bad brake fluid is fine my trans was low
@@YoungShizzie ok
Most people run the cloth down the dipstick to clean it off. Also after car is hot, can’t you shut it off? No need to count to 5 we are not idiots!
Ok my apologies
If you follow operator manual hot and off!
I have an 07 accord with the same engine u have it for 3 years now but I was told don’t change the transmission fluid because it doesn’t have to be changed… I have never changed it since I got it do u think i should change it??
Yup that’s correct changing it may kill the transmission
Yea that's why I don't trust the dealer because a lot of ppl there just do "what they feel is safe" instead of following the actual procedure that is published by honda engineers themselves. Yea it's engine off and hot
I do it like this always even learned from old school mechanics they done it this was as well worked for honda dealer and we did it like this
@@RBTheMechanic Yea it depends on the vehicle. Most cars like my 06 Ram it's checked engine on and hot. But yea I constantly worked with techs with that "can't teach an old dog new tricks" kind of mentality
P0122 keeps coming up on my scanner
Hot and off. Remove this video. It is all wrong.
I’m sorry I think u watched only first few minutes of video
I have a 2006 Honda Accord EX v6 6 sp manual transmission and THERE IS NO DIP STICK!
How the hell do you check the fluid?
For that matter; where do you put a n the fluid??
Manual has gear oil u have filler port and drain port so to check fluid u need to open the filler port and top off fluid till it start to come out from filler port that’s the level
@@RBTheMechanic Thank you!!
honda said warm car up then shut engine of, then check fluid level
U can do that
I cannot believe this is still here engine Has to be hot shut off and you must check it within 90 seconds of shutting the engine off for proper level everything he did was wrong this video should be removed.
It’s still checkable this way
Nice finish, boooooo
Thank u
Show us the fluid level check bolt….
This got dipstick 2013 and up got bolt to check level
You might want to see what SCOTTY KILMER has to say about flushing a Honda Transmission FIRST.
We know!!! As I mention if u never done or don’t touch it u gotta to watch all of my
Videos also
I'm going to take a wild guess here and say he says "DON'T!" lol
@@daves2354 It's not as much changing the fluid as he says to NEVER Flush a Tranny,just looking for issues then.Filters are meant to be changed in vehicles,just some are harder than others(but hey,I am Old,but you can teach this Old Dog a new trick).I try to have an open mind as things change.
Never said where to add the oil WHERE ???
I have video on doing oil add or change
@@RBTheMechanic Okeedoekee I'll look for it thanks
To much talking
Okkkk
Nobody is forcing you to watch the video.
Car should be hot and turned off
No it has to be running when off it throws all the fluid all back and u will get wrong reading
@@RBTheMechanic I just read my manual on 2.4 2007 accord and it said run the car on f;at surface until hot turn off car wait 60 seconds and then check trans oil level . Do not wait longer then 90 seconds when checking
@@James-hm9on I used to work for honda this is how we checked always and it’s very effective so I’ll keep doing it my way I don’t trust dealers or manufacture anyways unless they man up and put a recall on all Honda’s with oil consumption
@@RBTheMechanic OK thanks , lots of different opinions on how to check it , I appreciate your info thanks .
@@James-hm9on yup this is how it’s always been checked
This is why I don't go to mechanics this would of already costed 100$. For the talk
Well then u watch learn and do
