Pro tip, always remove the check plug first to ensure it come out and is accessible to you with your tools on hand. Don't wanna drain the oil and not be able to fill it.
nice video,, so interested about the accord 2.0t 10 speed transmission fluid change... need how many quart of oil?... exactly level... because out side some mechanic just guessing the oil level...
I will make a video on that soon I do apologize to those who have been waiting for a video by me I’m sure there’s TONS of other videos out there but I will personally do a whole breakdown exact amount of fluids, cost and everything
How much should the oil and transmission fluid change cost at a shop? What did you charge this customer maybe? 2018 exl my girls car just under 25k miles, you suggest she do it soon? thanks sorry got lots of questions
No worries at all honestly no more then $240 for both and yes at 25k miles the trans flush forsure. I work for a dealership so my price is next to nothing I just buy the parts and do it but in some cases for people who don’t have the tools it cost a bit to get the tools you need but and that’s a huge BUT if you plan on saving some extra cash long run I’d advise get tools such as ratchets sockets funnels Jack stands and just be careful doing so accidents do happen it’s never an if it’s when but long story short no more then $240 maaaaybe $300 if you go to a dealership
I have a 2019 4 cyl Honda accord ex question u kno the dealerships r gonna get u to change ur fluid more often to make money off u. My question is when mileage wise is the best time to change ur Trans and brake fluid? . I heard with trans fluid it was 60000 miles and brake fluid 40 to 50k.
Personally I’d change it myself since it’s really easy at 25k for the first trans flush after that I’d do it at every 30k just personally brake fluid I mean 40k sounds ideal just keep an eye on it pop the cap just make sure you don’t have debris inside if you do a lot of driving like most of us do just keep an eye on it if you need to it’s fine to top it off to the max line every blue moon but at the 40k to 50k mark in the area I’d go ahead and replace it all
If I'm just checking it do I warm it up from sitting by idling or do I drive it around then check it? I understand it needs to be warm to do the change but I need to know how to properly check it after sitting over night. For a 2017 Accord without dipstick. Thanks
For the transmission it’s 4.5 quarts when you do so just make sure you get the washer for the drain bolt it’s highly recommended to change that and the oil drain bolt washer was well and the oil will be 5qts the transmission first change should be around 22k-25k miles no more then that and just wipe off the metal shavings from the trans and that’s ATF fluid not CVT
@@sheeshtv721 thanks. Does honda recommend 100k trans oil change? I know toyota says 100k on the camry's, but we're talking about the 10 speed trans in the accord.
Same spot it’s just tucked way down kind of underneath the engine air filter it’ll be a silver hook simile to the video maybe a little and it’ll read which trans fluid it takes
I’d change as soon as you can honestly because that trans fluid has been sitting there since it was made let’s say since 2017 because the production I’m taking a wild guess and say they’ve been making these 10th gen accords since early 2017 late 2016 and sit at the dock till they released them for 2 year maybe even 3 in op so 25k miles is perfect timing honestly
Every place is different technically 2.5 quarts but they have to charge out 3quarts cause the other half quarts isn’t in a bottle IF you went to Honda they pretty much have it on tap just like oil
2018 accord LX 1.5L how many miles do you recommend the transmission fluid to be changed out ????? After how many miles do you recommend the spark plugs to be replaced???
Transmission personally at 25k miles Spark Plugs at 50k and your question on the last video you commented on I’d do when get a code leading to the alternator everything I’m saying is my personal preference it may not be what Honda calls for some people can say it’s premature but again it’s my personal opinion I do all the work on all my vehicles so I’ll do it when i want if you can afford it do it if not save and do it when you EVERYBODY’S situation is differentiated really when you can is my opinion

@@sheeshtv721 got damn my car has 20k and battery still good. And my wife car over 30k and still running. What are you doing to your car… and we live Midwest gets cold…
Currently watching the accord get loaded up on a trailer just sold it make space for bigger opportunities hopefully someone else will enjoy it left it the same way just on stock rims but with all the stock parts. Definitely was a great commuter got it 5miles sold it at 30k miles got it for 22k sold it for almost 25k
Hey, I followed all the steps and completed the transmission change but my transmission light came on? Should I be worried or will it go away on it’s own? This is my first 30k change on my accord.
It’s saying emission system problem and collision migration breaking system problem. The didn’t do anything different than you so I’m a little confused.
25k-30k is the best time just because that trans fluid has been sitting for ahwile if you got the car brand new if it’s used I’d do it personally as soon as possible just cause you never know if they ever did it
@Sheesh Tv Is the process any different with the 2.0t cvt. Just got back from the dealer quoting Me 375 for this. If it’s just removing and adding the fluid like in your vid, I’ll do it my self.
It’s insane and to think they just have really anybody (with or without) knowledge doing work blows my mind also but if I could help people save some extra cash I’m happy thankyou brotha!
Completely honest you can do 5 quarts it won’t hurt the trans in the slightest just don’t forget run it through the gears 10 seconds each gear before taking going anywhere at least twice
@@sheeshtv721 thank you for the help dealer charge me 150 without tax and I just bought my self 5 bottle of transmission fluid for 50 with shipping on Honda website with discount 💪🏾💪🏾
If your meaning the whee lug it should be no more the 80ftlb but the drain bolt just make sure it’s snug and I personally spray it break cleaner just so that area is clean and also make sure it’s not leaking cause once you strip that bolt now your looking at possibly replacing the oil pan
I live in NYC and don’t have the space to have tools to do it myself nor do I want to attempt to do so and fuck something up. I have a 2020 1.5 accord sport with about 21K miles. Do you think I should take it to the dealership to get the CVT transmission fluid change or can I take it to my local shop and have them change my oil and also the CVT transmission fluid? Also I wanted to ask what FULL synthetic engine oil do you recommend to prolong the life of my car? And do I necessarily have to use this CVT transmission fluid that is in your video for the 2020 accord sport 1.5? Sorry for all the questions. Just want to make sure I make this car last me for a long time.
Calls for 8 Initials qts but that’s if you fill it run it through gears drain it again the refill it. Now that’s going the extra mile if you don’t go that route doesn’t mean your accord won’t run rite cause when I worked at Honda we didn’t even do that.
How to know that you are not over filling or under filling? There's a separate bolt on the 1.5 Turbo cvt transmission that you unscrew and then fill the fluid from the top. The last (4th bottle) you slowly fill or have someone fill from top while you observe the fluid laying under the car. You ask your helper once you start seeing fluid come out of that hole. This is the ONLY way guaranteed to do this cvt fluid drain and fill correctly. Stupid Honda engineers were too lazy to provide a cvt fluid level dip stick like older models had. Don't forget to put that level checking bolt back on when you are done.
Personally when I’m draining ANY fluids and this goes to me changing fuel filter on diesel I take my time and drain everything allow as much old fluids to come out as possible I feel zero rush when working on any car truck suv etc. honestly even the quotes recommended fluid ounces are still to much in some cases so it’s some trial and error not major.
Pro tip, always remove the check plug first to ensure it come out and is accessible to you with your tools on hand.
Don't wanna drain the oil and not be able to fill it.
Bro is the plug just a pop out or is like a screw on?
Best practice is to collect all the fluid that comes out, so you know how much you replace. Especially if the transmission has no dipstick.
Pretty much can’t go wrong with that method!
What if it was low on fluid then you're gonna refill and be low
Empty it and fill it until it slowly drips out the level/check plug
Did you check the fluid level by removing the check fill bolt? What about the filters? There are 2 filters in this CVT transmission.
Did you change the Transmission Filter as well? Video?
The way he cracks that bolt is very satisfying.
Doesn't the Honda manual say to warm the engine to operating temp. Being 2 cycles of the fan. Then drain.

It sitting over night is fine I’ve been taught it’s better that way since everything gets a chance to settle
Pretty sure you let it warm up (idle)and have the fan kick on 2x before draining the transmission fluid.
