Honda Accord Automatic Transmission Fluid Change
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 พ.ย. 2015
- Honda Accord automatic transmission fluid (ATF) change. (Non-CVTs) Fortunately, you do not need many tools to complete this job. This vehicle happens to be a 2003 model year, however, the job is very similar across many Honda vehicles.
Regarding fluid type: Honda is specific with it's ATF. Required is Honda - Acura ATF-ZI, DW-1. (Again, not for use with CVTs) If you're not sure what type of fluid to use, check the owners' manual. We use Castrol's Transmax Import Multi-vehicle fluid due to the fact we could not obtain genuine Honda fluid in short order. Castrol has a data sheet on their website if you're curious about the specifics. Cheers.

This was performed on a 2003 Honda Accord. Check with your vehicle's repair manual for testing parameters.
Note to anyone who does this, make sure when you put your 3/8 ratchet into the bolt that you are pushing the button to retract the ball (that normally locks the socket) in and then push the racket on snug onto the bolt. The little ball on the should not be visible and completely inside the bolt. This is important because if it's not in there completely, you'll risk malforming the nut with that little ball when you try to torque it off. Just important to mention anyways
Matthew Espindola good information to anybody planning to change their transmission oil since mine are nearly malforming the bolt yesterday
I just did this, 2012 Accord, 58,500 miles on the odo. My mother's car, she pays a local mechanic to service it for her, as she has had very bad experiences at the local Honda dealers in the area. Well, this guy did nothing other than oil changes. I got ahold of the car as it needed brakes. I had to beat the pads out of the brackets with a 3 pound sledge hammer. Both front calipers weeping, tried to rebuild but the cylinders were too far gone. So, two new calipers, four rotors, and two sets of pads. Power steering pump screaming, flushed that, flushed brake fluid, serviced the cooling system, oil and filter, and then the transmission, it was singing too... Used 9 quarts as you stated, last drain and fill we had gorgeous purple fluid coming out. Car now runs like new. Really pisses me off, this mechanic of her's, he was a Honda Tech for years. He never even checked the brake pads on this thing! Hell, you do not even have to remove the wheels to do that. Great video. Sorry for the rant. I hate these new mechanics, many are just outright thieves.
"Singing". So dumb.
Thanks for mentioning that there are two filters and the one that we can change if we want to.
Glad to help.
Thank you so much, this was a simple yet helpful video
Haha great job man :)))
Finally we found a real TH-camr in the car business,very straight forward,detailed N clear instruction .
Thank you. Hope it helped!
Great step by step instructions! Thanks for helping
Glad to help.
When youre pouring fluid in it shouldnt read up to the high fill mark.. the fluid is cold.. transmission fluid should be checked at operating temperature and with car off and should read between the 2 dots.. therefore when youre adding new fluid which is cold it should read at the low level that way when it gets hot and expands it will give you a reading between the 2 dots..
Does the transmission shifter have to be in park or neutral on a 98 accord ex can anybody tell me that please and thank you.
I'm checking fluid level
Just did a siphon and refill, was 1+ quarts overfilled 😬 used Valvoline maxlife added some lube gard too. Drives great.
You’re amazing. Thank you so very much.
If you are going to the trouble why would you not use OEM Transmission as required by Honda and replace the 4 cent drain plug washer? Great Video.
I always replace that after the 3rd or 4th trans oil change
I use Honda Fluid for Trans -- Nothing Else
190 K on Trans, Runs Like New.
I service every 20K--06 CR-V--Best Car Ever
Bad Advice by this Guy BUT it's Your Car.
Appreciate the feedback. Zero issues after all these years.
Great info! Thanks I'm buying a 2012 Accord W/205,000 MI one owner. clean
Transmission fluid still looked pretty good? Nice job and video.
Thank you.
Anyone who is anyone knows u only use Honda transmission Fluid..I dont give a damn what the label said
I just did mine on my 06 accord. Honda has a funny process for checking level. Also changed the filter
Tye filter is inside the trans
I didn't think it had a filter. Hmmm
@@saltypatriot1768 my filter is on top of the transmission 4cylinder inline filter the v6 has a inside filter
@@robertfrye7764 the 4cylinder auto does have a inline filter the v6 doesn't
Its crazy how many people never change their transmission fluid
200k miles and never changed it😅😅😅😅 running like a champ... 135k on my other accord and same thing😅
I did 2 drain and refills. Car was on slope, higher at back. first time drained little over 3q and fill 3. 2nd time, drain 3.4 and fill 3.5. Kept drained oil overnight and no difference in quantity hot vs cold. But now checked fluid level on level surface, it show over high mark when hot or cold. car was driven 100 miles on freeway between changes
Any problems or issues after replacing fluid
How many liter do we need for Honda accord 2.4 gear oil for 2009
Good night, what would be the recommended oil for the automatic transmission box for the Accord 2005 2.4 EX and how many liters should it be placed? Thank you very much in advance
Great video! Thank you very much
Don't use anything but Honda ATF in the transmission. Get the Honda fluid from eBay or your local dealer.
BUEN VIDEO GRACIAS SALUDOS DESE ATLANTA GA
is there a transmission filter to change on this accord?
This model have a check bolt?
How much does it take about??? I drained mine on ramps and it looks like 3.3 qts came out while the fluid was hot..so I'm guessing 3.0 cold??
I have alotta fluid on the oil pan wt is the problem is it the drain plug !?? Plz help
That paper towel was funny
Maybe I'm old school, but isn't automatic transmission fluid suposed to be checked with the car warmed up and the engine running while in park?
Good question. Depends on the vehicle. They each have their own technique on checking the fluid.
On this model the owners manuel says when car reaches operating temperature and is turned in the off position is when you check the fluid .
it depends my 90 accord original owners manual says to check it with no mention of wether to do it with car off or on.. but my Hayne's repair manual for the same car says to check it after turning the car off... so its kinda tricky in my opinion because you would think the manufacturer would have the best information but apparently not in my experience... just my 2cents
I need to know if the shifter has to be in park or neutral on a 98 Honda accord ex to check fluid on the Transmission please and thank you.
What about the second transmission filter?
is the transmission oil pan replaceable? i cracked the drain hole while i was tightening the plug.
lol did you follow this morons advice? he says to torque it to 40ft lbs which is way too high
Hey man. Have you seen any tutorials on fixing the oil pan gasket on these Honda Accords??? You have to do so many things to access some bolts. I've only seen people post the instructions from a repair manual.
I believe you have to drop the frame. its a big job
You’re great!
Thank you.
Hope it helped.
i have a 2000 honda accord barly rebuilt my transmission im already at 3000 miles should i change it to keep it new or would that mess anything up
Typically, the manufacturer of the rebuilt tranny will provide a maintenance sheet regarding changing the fluid. If you don't have anything, take a look at the color of the fluid.
Hi. I have a 2006 Accord v6 coupe, the ATF dip stick hole is more narrow than your car....it's impossible to insert a funnel in there. Is there any other way to pour the ATF in??
Just use the fill point. 17mm to open fill bolt.
Or get some paper and tape and make a thinner extension
I made a paper funnel and taped it to my normal long funnel
Great video. Thank you
Wonderful. Clear explanation as well :)
Anyone know where subframes and replaced cheap?
except CVT? What do I do if I have a CVT?
buy CVT-Fluid. Each type of transmission have their own dedicated products.
Hello, would it be possible for you to post link for Honda accord manual? Thank you!
Who else here cuz they don't have a dad
Use only Honda dw1 transmission fluid in Honda automatic transmission.
out of warranty use the cheap shit
@@AntLive29 Cost too much to repair auto box, false economy use genuine HONDA
most parts store have OEM fluids now.
Hi there using an extension is excellent idea 😊😊😊
2002 honda l.f,3.0 can I use that Castro trans fluid
Great video! Thanks man.
You bet!
Excellent presentation!
Thank you
How many bottles of fluid you used?
Hi, thanks for the video. can I change the oil if my car has more than 170 thousand miles? Thanks
Usually if it's not burnt smelling you can. But if it smells burnt its gonna slip after you do it
Héctor Alfredo Macareño Delgado Hey man just want to let you know that you don’t need to change your transmission fluid at 170... but you do need to change it every 60-90 thousand kms. I don’t know when was the transmission fluid changed on your car but you need to do it every 60-90kms. Hope that helps!
Can I do this on an 04?!
Excellent explanation. Tnx
Is jacking the car up on all 4 corners necessary? Or is it for clearance reasons? Just wondering if I need to invest in the Jack and stands. Thank you.
Yes if you want to remove as much fluid as possible. Secondly, it's a good idea to have two sets for future repairs. Good luck!
Build wheel cribs, and invest in a 3 ton floor jack. Plenty of videos on cribs here on YT. Best $100 I have spent in a long time in regards to getting the car up in the air, and not having to worry about the damn thing falling on you. ;-)
A lot of Funnels don't fit that small hole for the dipstick.
I bought one at Home Depot, it fit perfectly. In their automotive section, the long black one, I think around $5.
you are awesome thanks bro appreciated
Happy to help
Your great, Damascus, Md. & Hunt Valley, Md.
Some great extra tips
Is that t level when warm?
Thank you
and also is there anything else i have to change in my transmission or is everything good since its rebuilt im new to hondas and i want to keep my transmission like new

I got my 2014 v6 accord transmission fluid change at the dealer and it $100 , it took 4 quarts and 2 washers .
40k miles it had when I did it
what about the plastic splash guard? how do we deal with that - it is in the way?
no, it aint
How Many liters do i need???
takes 3 in half leters
Can you just drive it up on ramps to change the fluid
Sure could. You may not get all of the old fluid out due to the angle but a lot of owner's use ramps.
Hey man I really have quick questions
1) How do I check the transmission oil for my Honda accord 2013 LX ? not sure if it needs to be changed or not just like the engine oil ?
2) for the engine oil change !! DO I need to change the oil filter every single time ? I use the recommended mobil 1 oil with the extended performance mobil 1 oil filter. and I change every 5k .
thanks.!!!
Best bet is checking the owner's manual. I don't have one handy for your Accord, but chances are the tranny fluid is lifetime; unless you tow with the vehicle, use in muddy conditions, etc. Regarding the engine oil, chances are you can go beyond 5k miles if you're using mobil1. But check the owners' manual. You'll find maintenance intervals listed.
Hello there I might have an answer for your question as my dealer said the first 100,000km
then every 40,000km and
"depending on the wether condition you can go for every 60,000km"
Yes u have to change the filter everytime you change the oil
How often should transmission fluid be checked and changed?
My 2004 Honda Accord with 110k miles Won’t Accelerate but RPMS Go Up
Can that be why? I haven’t checked that in like forever 🤦🏾♂️
Recommended every six years or 120k miles, whichever comes first.
Make sure you have ATF in it and it's level is full first. Sounds more serious for only that mileage. Probably should have a mechanic drive it and check it out. Reguarly, for most cars at least drain and fill with 3 quarts[2.6 qts] every 30K to 50K. In your case with it really slipping maybe all of it, but in general, it really shouldn't have every drop of the 9+ quarts changed or doing 3 quarts and driving it and changing it again "3 times" especially if it's really black oil now and smells burnt b/c replacing that with new oil, it might start slipping. That's what I've seen.
Good job
hi, how many liters get in? thanks
2.5 LT
what year was this civic, the manual u were holding say 2003, but the car looks new
+t dub '03 Accord. Car is very clean.
Great video. May need to do this soon to my '04. Quick question, do you put threadlocker on the drain bolt? you do on other bolts but not sure about drain bolts.
No need to place threadlock. Glad it helped!
Never put thread locker on a your drain bolts at most change the crush washer they're only a like 50cents usd
when should I replace automatic transmission fluid?
+t dub Depends on the vehicle. Best bet is taking a look at the owners manual
the manual version does not have any deep stick and even the place of the location is not the same
the title says automatic transmission. why don't your read?
I have a 05 Accord v6 and I want to change the transmission filter but I don't know we're to find it
Many late model vehicles don't require a filter change. It's often done if the tranny is being rebuilt. But check the owner's manual if it's listed as a regular maintenance item. Cheers.
CarsNToys thnks
That’s 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Where is the external ATF filter located?
There is not one, at least not on my 2012 Accord.
@@michaelwright1602 After much research, I found the ATF. On the 2016 V6, have to remove the battery in order to get to it
No Dexron?
Dexron is not good for honda
Hello my friend, my name is Jorge Caldas, I live in Brazil and my question is: I have a Honda Accord 95 EX and every time when the engine is cold, I can't get reverse normally. I need wait about 3 or 4 minutes. After that I don't have problem when it is hot. What do you think it is? I don't use honda transmission fluid in. Can be that? But it is only on reverse. I suspect the solenoids dirts. There is any other place that I can check to fix it? Thank you.
If you're lucky, changing the fluid may help. I've had good success with Lucas Transmission Fix as well. However, in those situations the vehicle was shifting very hard.
But why just on reverse? And why just when it's cold? I'd like understand how the transmission works. Thank you.
Clean solenoids and change transmission fluid 3x’s, yes three times . Drain n fill drive around about 20 miles then drain an fill. Drive another twenty miles and drain and fill again. You should be draining 3qts each time and refilling the same amount. 9 qts total 3 each drain n fill. Use nothing but Honda fluids. I take it you have no transmission lights on. Good luck. 93 Accord 265,00 all original drive train automatic transmission.
I just bought a 2010 Honda Accord I got to find out when the transmission oil was changed I don't know yet I have 167,000 mi on it so what do I do check to see the color and see if it's still good or does it still need to be changed cuz I'm still learning about all of this stuff lol
Find out if ever did,I don't recommend changing it if it never was change before hitting 100k it could mess up the car if wasnt service on the regular..what you can do is atleast check the fluids levels
@@willpage79 The fluid is good in the car the color and everything
@@cummiebear51378 I would leave it alone unless u certain wen it got changed
@@willpage79 they said the car will tell me like the light with go off lol
@@cummiebear51378 no who told u that lol
It isn't tight, the parts seized because the bolt is steel and the transmission casing is aluminum. The metals gall together and seize. The actual torque spec for that bolt is very low. around 16 ft lbs, if you do closer to 40 you're going to strip the weak aluminum transmission casing. I'm giving your video a thumbs down because you obviously don't know anything about metallurgy or auto-repair.
This man doesn´t tell us how many litters we have to put when we are changing this fluid
3 quarts Honda DW-1. Ask the Honda parts guy if he will give you a discount if you buy a case. I can't remember but it was like 25 for 3 quarts plus tax but for a case it was less than $80 (12 quarts).
It should not be lesser than drained out amount. Measure how much you got out. And after a short drive top up as needed to be in the range of the dip stick.
It takes 2.5 litres
GREAT VIDEO !
Thank you. Cheers
So how much ATF do you pour in? The whole container?
3 quarts and a half of quart
No filter replacement?
Honda transmission filters are internal lifetime filters. The only way to change it is to rebuild the transmission. Only newer Honda's have a secondary filter. I own a shop that specializes in Honda/Acura repair plus I worked for Honda for 5 years.

Move shop to texas man haha
@@juanm0788 You have Scotty Kilmer in Texas! Although not for long...
Honda recommends that the fluid be changed every 30,000 miles…. Where are you getting six years from?
You sure? 30,000 is too early... for a trans oil
I used to work at a honda dealer. We recommend 30,000 miles to upscale and make money but you don’t usually change it until 50-60k miles. I have a friend that has only 20k on his car and his honda is 7 years old. 6 years means that. You don’t necessary have to drive to a certain point of mileage to replace your transmission fluid. If its been long like 7 years you still have to replace it even if its 15k miles.
Never listen to any tech or even dealer mechanic. Thats how they make money. + extra commission sales. Always follow the car manual and not the mechanic cause you don’t know whos is legit “honest”or not.
100% of all honda dealer also recommends coolant flush but they never flush it, they only drain and refill just like any other regular person. Super easy job but way to over price at dealership
@@huyquoctran2088 The transmission fluid breaks down in time, even if few miles are driven. It is the additive package that needs to be refreshed. 30,000 miles seems reasonable to me, or every couple of years if not driven that often. Just drain the box and refill, 3 quarts tops. It is an easy job, as the above video showed. Much cheaper than a new transmission.
lmao breaker bar bro please
I have a torque wrench lol

For those of you asking if you should change it every 3000 miles like the motor oil don’t bother doing this job your gonna fail your way to dumb to be near tools and engines
