I Had all my drive fluids changed during my first oil change, the oil change was free because I bought the car at that dealership, but the trans and rear diff was only like 200 bucks to do em, including labor and fluid. since then I have done all the fluid changes myself, today is 12/12/2021 and my 2018 1.5 AWD has 92,011 on it and I finally did the filter behind the heater element and I was honestly expecting it to be destroyed, but it wasn't, it was definitely VERY VERY VERY dirty, but I really think doing my break in fluid changes helped out a ton. The writer and the tech that was there when I picked the car up for my first one said that if more people did that break in fluid change at about 5,000 and then keep up on your fluid changes it would solve a ton of un needed work. 100 bucks in fluid and washers vs $4000+ for a trans replacement....its a no brainer.

I need your advice. I mistakenly put the wrong Honda transmission fluid (ATF-DW-1) in my 2015 CR-V which has a CVT. I realized the mistake BEFORE starting the vehicle. I then drained out that fluid, filled with the correct fluid (HCF-2). I let it sit a few minutes, did NOT start the vehicle. Drained it again, then refilled with the correct fluid (HCF-2). Then started the vehicle. All this took place at 26,500 miles. Is there anything else you recommend I do? I am thinking of changing it again at 30,000 miles. Any advice will be greatly appreciated Thanks for taking time to read this.

No that should be fine what you did. If you just accidentally filled and didnt start you can simply drain and refill with correct fluid as you did. If you had started and drove I'd say to drain, refill with correct fluid, drive a bit, then drain again and refill 👍

Its a good video. There is a transmission filter under the battery tray. It is rarely addressed. Very little information about it. That transmission had a lot of metal. I think I would change it. Maybe get more life out of this transmission. Personally i love the fact Honda put that overflow hole there. Cannot overfill, and you know it has correct amount of fluid. Simple and easy for diy. Also wish more bolt heads were like the drain plug. You dont have to find the correct socket and you can apply a lot of force without slipping.

QUESTION: What do you think about changing my transmission fluid by 1) jacking up the front left, 2) draining the transmission fluid and reinstalling the drain bolt, 3) refilling the transmission fluid, 4) removing the transmission level check bolt, 5) lowering the front left so the car is level allowing any excess fluid to drain out, 6) again raising the front left and reinstalling the level check bolt.

No filter needs changing with normal service 👍

Question: Does this take care of the rear differential as well?

No that will be a seperate job, but an easy one. It just has a drain and filler plug. Be sure to remove filler plug 1st just in case there is an issue with it (shouldn't be) then drain plug. That way don't end up not being able to refill after draining.

When you say 3.9 quarts do you mean 9 ounces on top of the three qts. or 90% of a quart which is 10.8 ounces? This might be a little nit picky but I was just wondering.

0.9 quarts or 90% of 1 quart. Its just a lil less than the whole last bottle 👍

I'm sorry I'm not 100%. If you call dealer service department they will know for sure or even a salvage junk yard that sells transmissions should know

Will the Honda CR-V give you a number on the dash on maintains where you check oil percentage? For example my Honda CR-V now says A1 but if you get a 3 the computer it notifying you to change the trans fluid.

Hay Jonny, a question 🤔. Can I use vacume pump to suck out the fluid ?

@JonnyDIY

You should be able to through that vent hole, never done it but worth a try. Not sure if you'll get all the fluid out you would through the drain hole though. But youll know measuring what sucked out 👍

How often should you change the trans fluid ?

Isn't it required to change the oil filter?

No not for the cvt transmission, honda doesn't call for it. You can do it, I'd say every other time would be good 👍

I getting the code to flush and change the transmission fluid but my husband says he didn’t think that was good to do to a car. That it “can mess it up.” I have 71k miles on my 2017 CRV. Should I do it? I’ll have to have it done by a mechanic but I just wondered if you recommended it. Or should I just delete the code?

Yes I would do it, but just take it to Honda Dealer or Independent Honda Mechanic and ask for a Transmission drain and fill. And make sure if independent shop they use the Honda Fluid as I showed. Your husbands right you don't want to take somewhere they use a flushing machine like those quicky lube places are always trying to get you to use. A drain and fill is all it needs. Try and have done every 50k miles 👍

I emptied the fluid out of my FWD CR-V and over four quarts came out. I only had four quarts, so I put them all in. I guess that I'll see how it goes.

That's fine as long as it's close I have heard lots of varying amounts within probably a 1/2 of a quart 👍

@@JonnyDIY That's good to know. I'll add that I didn't level the car, but instead jacked it from the driver's side. I figured that if I was going to replace the exact amount that came out, then I should get out as much as possible. Without a doubt, more came out than would have if it was drained when it was level. The next time I do it I will level the car and fill it until fluid comes out whatever that hole is called.

@@bretak74 ohh that makes sense. Yeah and I guess dealers, the factories or whoever did final inspection on these things added varying amounts of fluid. Probably checking and topping off. All close to the specs I listed though
