Honda Accord 2.4L Automatic Transmission Fluid Service 2012 (2008-2012 Similar) (Drain and Fill)

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

In this video, I show you how I change the automatic transmission fluid in a 2012 2.4L Honda Accord (drain and fill). This procedure should be similar for 2008-2012 models. The exact vehicle in the video is a 4 cylinder 2.4L 2012 Honda Accord SE Sedan.
This procedure is for 2.4L four cylinder Accords with conventional automatic transmissions (NOT CVT). Accords with manual transmissions, CVTs and V6 models will have a different procedure than the one shown on this video.

    Hey ! So when you drain and it fill it three times, would you have to buy way more quarts of ATF? Like would u do 2 and 6 tenths then drive it 5-10 miles, come back drain it again then pour another 2 and 6 tenths quarts again? And repeat for a third time? That’s the only part I’m not sure of lmk! Thanks!

    I did this for 3 of my 4 -cylinder Hondas over 10 times. But one time I got distracted and walked away from my 07 Accord and it kept slowly draining for 20 minutes. After the refill, the transmission started to act up and it took it a whole day to relearn. For me, lesson learned, once the recommended amount of fluid is out I screw back the plug. I started to use a pan with scale lines (the cheapest plastic one from Walmart) and keep an eye on the level inside the pan. Once it reaches the level (in my case 3.1 quarters) I screw back the plug while it still dripping. We racked up over 900K miles on 3 Hondas with no single issue with the transmissions. Go 4 cylinder only. 06 Accord, 07 Accord, 09 CR-V.

    Very true, but there is the possibility of fluid splashing up above the plastic shield as it drains, which could give you the false impression of a leak as that small amount of fluid drips out from the top side of the shield. I personally think it is 20 minutes well spent.

    Thanks for your quite detailed and very accurate instructions. You saved me most of troubles. Turned out, my wife’s Accord 2010 had exactly 16 plastic clips. All worked well, but while cleaning them for re-installation, I noticed that two were actually different - clearly longer than the others. At first, I was about to dismiss this as being just an alternative clip type. But then I looked closer at the outermost connections to the front bumper. Only these two clips are attaching three different plastic pieces together. And since they’re not clipping to solid metal to hold them in place, the result is somewhat hanging in the air.

    Great video. I inherited a 2008 Honda Accord with the K24 as my daily driver. Diesel fuel prices are out of control these days. Anyway, I just did a drain and fill with Valvoline Maxlife and drove it for about 5 miles. Seems like the trans is already shifting better and it's definitely quieter. Since I don't know when the last drain and fill was, I'm going to repeat 3 times like you suggested. Also, since my car was jacked up really high in the front for me to access the drain plug, I noticed I drained about 3.5 quarts. I juts measured it in an old oil container and I put exactly that much back in of fresh fluid. That way I'm not guessing. After I do this twice with Maxlife, I'm going with Hot Shots Secret Blue Diamond transmission fluid. They make the best lubricants out there and it's DW-1 approved.

    Great video Big Dog50001 !!! I used the information for my 2011 Honda Accord transmission AFT drain & fill. Suggestion for on the 8th generation Accord Owners: There is engine cover, which Big Dog 50001 showed taking off, I tell you it's very time consuming and problems break off cover clips etc. What I did, and this works very well.... where the transmission drain bolt is located, use a sharp blade knife and cut the engine cover. From the middle of the drain bolt 4" on each side cut 6" long slit on the black cover. So you create flap that can be bent to access the transmission drain bolt without having to remove the whole engine cover. Now on the flap drill 1/8" dia hole, about 1" from the top of the flap. On the opposite side flap, the engine cover. drill another 1/8" hole. Repeat, and drill the hole on the other side. So essentially you create 4 holes and then each side of the flap. After the transmission drain & fill is completed use Harbor freight "Black" plastic ties to close off flap.. Later, when I need to do another transmission drain & fill, just cut off 2 plastic ties, bend back the flap to remove the transmission change bolt - 1 minutes job. I have been using this for the past 9 years, working good. The engine cover & flap is not damaged, important to me, cannot even see it and still maintains engine cover integrity.

    Thanks for the video. Perfect step by step as to how to do this yourself which I love doing for anything automotive if I feel like I can. 2.6 quarts did not fill it though and I've seen this in some other comments. I have put in 2.7 now and it's still low so after I drive it next I will check it again. I bought Honda Trans. fluid from Battison Honda here in Oklahoma City and they told me I needed 4 quarts to do the job on a 2012 4 cylinder.

    The spec from the Honda service information is 2.6 US quarts (2.5L) of ATF for 2.4L Accords 2008-2012 during a drain and fill like in this video. Even though that is the spec, the level should always be checked after servicing it (before is also good too) and it is not uncommon to have to add a tiny bit more. The ATF fluid level just needs to be between the two marks, sometimes it can be hard to see if the fluid is clean. Also, when checking the fluid level, if the vehicle is not at operating temperature (fans come on), on a level surface, and then turned off for 60-90 seconds before checking, the level may not read correctly. Thanks for the comment!

    I appreciate the comment. However, there are a couple of benefits to draining it properly, one is getting the fluid up to operating temperature (hot) so any possible impurities can flow out, and the other is so the magnet on the drain bolt can be cleaned off, this way it will be able to collect more metal particles that come from the transmission during normal operation. Thanks for the input.

And the interesting part is that the people at Honda tells me it's four qts. My accord EXL has now 158K miles and no issues after all the maintenance I have done so far. I just had to look at the video one more time to make sure I don't overfill.🤔🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😂

    Just remember, the transmission will only drain to a certain point, so if you put in 3 quarts that is what you will drain out the next time (unless there is a leak). As long as the fluid level is between the marks it is good to go. Thanks for the comment!

    @salah osman, I would definitely recommend adding fluid up to the proper level if my Honda ATF was low. Ideally on a 2012 Accord the ATF should have been service at least once by the time it had 60,000 miles but Honda says it can go as far as 120,000 miles before service (under normal driving conditions which is not very common nowadays). My own recommendation is that this ATF service be done at least once every 30,000 miles. On vehicles where the ATF fluid has been neglected, I don't have a problem doing a fluid service like in this video because it only gets about 1/3 of the fluid so it is not a shock to the system like it could be on other vehicles where all of the fluid is changed. Of course anytime any work is done to a vehicle there is always a chance something could go wrong.

Pure genius. Never had to screw around with the cover removal and replacement. Also, for you guys who don't have an extension for your funnel, you can remove (or simply unscrew and move) the section of the air intake hose that is blocking the dipstick.
