2000 Honda Civic Engine Oil & Transmission Fluid Change

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 22 ม.ค. 2019
- It's maintenance time and I'll be doing an engine oil change and transmission fluid change just so that I have a piece of mind that I did it. This procedure will apply to a majority of the Honda D-Series family of engines from 1988 to 2000. Let me know if you have any questions in the comments section below.

The more 2000 Honda Civic videos, the more my car will be safer to drive. Thanks especially for the great video quality easy to follow.
These 6th gen Civics will always have a special place in my car loving heart.
I have a 99 civic si
This is the only video I could find that has a clear and well lit view of the location of the ATF drain plug. Thanks
You literally taught me a ton right now!! I have a 98 Honda civic so THANKS!!
Great video that shows basic maintenance. All products used were definitely quality products.
Thanks, bro! I appreciate it b/c I didn’t know where to check for the level of my auto trans fluid in my ‘00 Honda Civic EX 🤜🤛
Great content bro...keep up the great work
Nice! I miss my cousin’s 1997 Civic EX manual coupe. Fun car!
Yessss more civic videos please😃😎
Nice bro my girl just got a car like this and I’m going to be doing and oil change you made it seem easier
Easier than I thought. Thank you.
2004 civic with 240,000 miles. Been using Castrol Import Trans fluid since 80,000 with no problems.
Great video! 👍
Thanks alot. Great vid!
appreciate this video. because i jave d15b honda city sx8 Karachi. it has automatic transmission and i never know how to change the oil for it. now i know the bold location you remove it. thanks bro make more vidoes Like thoratel cleaning and maf sensor and other sensors vidoes
Nice tutorial bro!
Thanks
The new gen OEM honda oil filters (the one with a 02 as the ending in part number i beleive) is made by the makers of Fram filters....Honda cut cost in quality there ....so that Fram is pretty much OEM quality just cheaper.... search here on ou tube if you have doubts
I want to change the transmission fluid on my 00 civic but I’m scared because my pops said that I can possibly mess up the transmission if the oil has never been changed before. Any recommendations?
I have the same car (1996) and I don't have the oil transmission stick ?
Is this basically the same on all 6th gens? I have a 99 EM1 Si.
My mechanic told me to use only honda brandd atf dw-1 or else it will cause gear slip or delays, is that true?
Do the 99-2000 not have transmission filter?? I was sold one but then someone told me it didn’t have one and I couldn’t find it
Dang you make me wanna get one even though i have the 8th gen si
You should! These will be classics.
I live in MN, lmao just kind of scared...
Yes, just make sure you have good security ;)
Great video! Can't wait to give this a try. My car is a 2000 Honda Civic (automatic transmission). Is there also a transmission fluid filter that I should be replacing as well, or is the magnetic plug really all there is?
No transmission filter. Just drain and fill. Keep up with regular maintenance interval and it'll be fine.
@@GTContent Great, thank you so much!
Do the 2000 civics have a transmission filter?
Hey, do you use Honda MTF Fluid or regular motor oil for the transmission? Because the 96 honda manual says only Honda MTF Fluid to use.
This is a auto… uses ATF not MTF
Do these civics have an internal filter for the automatic transmission? You commented about only needing 3 quarts instead of maybe 6 (?) . Is there a bigger service that can be done to these automatics. Tia
Good video.
A larger service would consist of draining all the fluid and perhaps flushing the system/torque converter where 3 of the 6 quarts remain while doing a basic service change as shown in the video. Depending on age, mileage, etc...doing a full flush of your transmission is not recommended and could cause more harm than good.
Napa SIlver Filter is exactly the same price and such a better filter. I wouldn't even use a fram on a car i got for free.
Also watch out for that Supertech oil, it's like impossible to find actual results for this oil. I did however come across a few forums about the Conventional and Synthetic versions of Supertech and It'll lose up to 50 percent of its viscosity at 1000 to 1500 miles on both oils. The automatic fluid though is amazing and cheap. I would get rid of that oil though, just sayin.
Wouldn’t use a Fram even on a worn out lawn mower. Go Wix/Napa as stated above.
The "grease" is actually fine metal shavings.
But the amount seen in the video is normal and nothing to be alarmed about.
Thank you! I just commented that. Its a 🧲 metal will stick to it, not "grease"
what atf you used? i have the same car as you do.pls reply to my comment thanks!
Thanks for the video. A question - does the transmission fluid dipstick sit as snug in its tube as the engine oil dipstick does? And is there a washer or O-ring on the transmission fluid dipstick itself (or on the tube opening it goes into) to give it a snug fit?
Mines pretty loose lol
Use some electrical tape apply neatly around the dipstick rubber
Yeah it’s crazy loose on my 99. Bad design.
Mines loose too 😅
No trans filter?
Best video for my Honda Civic 2001. I just drained the Transmission fluid and replaced with Valvoline Multi ATF Maxlife Full Synthetic. I checked my tip-stick and it was just above the top notch. I thought I might have over filled a little bit but watching your video it looks like you also filled just a hair above the top line too so I'm thinking that we are fine yes? How do you like using the ATF Maxlife fluid? Is that better than Castrol Transmax Multi Import ATF?
Yes, it should be fine a little high. The max life fluid has been good to me. Sorry, I have no experience with the castrol.
@@GTContent Thanks. After driving around for a week, I drained the Castrol and added the Maxlife and for a couple days I couldn't really tell that much of a difference. Meaning it felt pretty much the same, UNTIL day 3 rolled around and then I could really start feeling the slight difference between the two. The Maxlife just gave it a hair more smoother shifting. It was very slight but noticeable. I thought I might just be experience a placebo effect so I let my wife drive around for a day to see if she says anything and sure enough she said the same thing "now the car feels like it did before". meaning it was shifting like new.
Looks like from the comments I'm going with the valvoline max life! Just got my daughter a 2000 civic and it has high miles but is in nice shape....!
How was the transmission fluid after driving it a few miles? I have a sedan civic dx that’s due for its 30k fluid change. Can’t decide if I’ll use Honda fluid or other brands.
Been good so far.
What fluid is that
Hey man quick question. I have a ticking when I put my 2000 civic in drive. It’s also not completely warm. The ticking increases as I accelerate. When it’s fully warm, I can BARLEY hear it. Thanks!
May need a valve adjustment
First video with exactly the same configurationas my old 96 Civic.. Yayyy....Ok..im used to motor bikes so excuse my ignorance,, Is the ATF drain plug Clockwise to UNscrew?? im heavy handed so i kinda better get it right first go lol....
So..i slowed the vid down to 1/4 speed and think its a normal Lefty Loosey thing.. If someone could confirm, that would be grand
I’m confused about the transmission fluid.. you went from 3qts to 6qts difference
Hi, is transmission fluid change is same as the oil change for the gearbox ?
Almost but transmission fluid is closer to hydraulic fluid than oil. In a basic gear box all you need is lubrication, an automatic uses fluid pressure to control it's operation...AND lubricate the parts and seals.
I want to buy a 2010 Honda Civic with an automatic transmission that has 119,000 miles from a lady on Facebook. The vehicle is in mint condition and she services the car a lot. Only thing that caught my attention is that the transmission fluid was a darker brownish color but it drives beautiful. Is there a possibility that since it drives normal and it’s that color that it could be a underlying problem? She’s the only owner to the car and she never changed the fluid at all since day 1.
Shouldn't be a problem if it's well taken care of. You can change the fluid when you own it.
@@GTContent Thanks for your reply it just got me concerned because I never seen transmission fluid being that dark before. But again it runs smooth and she is the only owner and she doesn’t recall ever changing the fluid
Are you working on a Supra video now that we know what it looks like?
Yes
Is the transmission fluid like a dark red/velvet color ?
Yes
What transmission oil did you use
better pull that e brake before those stands tho
When I start my car it sounds like belt squeaking, think it a certain belt that needs to be replaced. Also what sounds a can would make to indicate transmission issues.
The belt squeaking is your serpentine belt
Thank you !
Ask lang anong recommended na transmission oil for honda civic 1997 vtech po.

The writing on the oil filter is probably from a fast lube shop
I've been using that same Fram filter on my D16Y7 EK forever. It will do perfectly fine just change the oil regularly
Personal opinion after watching multiple teardown vids is that I don't trust Fram filters anymore even for short change intervals. I'd use SuperTech filters over these.
Fluid change vs full change?
Full change will involve taking off the transmission pan and replacing the filter. It's going to be difficult to remove 100% of the fluid, but it's the best method to remove most of it.
Didn't see the transsmision oil filter.
I did not replace it.
Good video but I have read that changing the trans fluid is not a good idea. Any thoughts on that?
If the fluid is clean, then no problem. The reality is the fluid gets contaminated or breaks down with heat or other factors, so it should to be replaced.
Nice ! Is it better to do oil change my self ? Or go dealer ?
Great if you want to learn and have the tools and it also assures yourself that you did it correctly for a piece of mind. I've heard experiences where the customer wasn't sure if the dealer used premium oil or if the oil filter was replaced. Sometimes it's cheaper to go to the dealer if you have the time and if they have coupons/specials to save money.
Drain and fill isn’t hard to do. You’ll be able to handle the job. Just be aware of tightening the drain, you can easily strip the thread.
I like to DIY, but it's not for everyone. For simple maintenance work, like fluid changes, I prefer to go to an independent shop with good reviews rather than the dealership.
Don’t you want your oil level to be between the dots???
What engine is this?
D16Y7
Do you actually work with cars or is it just a hobby?
Hobby.
Mine it's about 19,000 miles Civic EX 2002 for 18 years I changed oil every 3 thousand miles.
That car will last forever
Which oil recommend me for Civic 1.5 D15 5W-30 10W-40???
Whatever the manufacturer recommends for your year. Should say on the oil fill cap.
SOOOO YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE HONDA TRANSMISSION FLUID??? YOU CAN USE ANOTHER BRAND?
Duh 🤣
Fram oil filter wouldn’t matter as long as you Oilchange your car every week 😂
#TRUTH
Paolo Inigo is fram really that bad?
NEPTUNE117 not really as long as you use this on a lesser hp cars like civics with single over head cam. Have you seen the oil filter videos? Fram’s internal is made out of cheap cartons that perforated easily.
Things wrong:
You used a Fram oil filter
Cheap Walmart oil
You thought that the stuff stuck to your magnetic drain plug wasn't metal.....
Fram filters should never be used on any vehicle that you care to keep for more than a month.
That oil is not great, either.
Over filling the oil can lead to serious engine damage.
Do a pull!! Lol jk
Will do in the upcoming review 😂
Could have been a transmission change. Just saying. Swap the flap box for a man's trans, just let me know.
