Tell em bro

Yeah, it can take 4 quarts, it all depends on how long you let the fluid drain and how you jack up the car while doing the d&f

Too much dude, too much. 🤣

Mine took 4.1 quarts until it started to trickle out. That is how much came out when I drained it too.

In the video you don't show when you check the level. You just poured all 4 quarts. Was it on level ground? I find that if you keep the spout on top when filling it pours out smoothly. Thanks for the vid. 👍

thought..not thot , dont sing english

@@randellgribben9772 English *🤦‍♂️

Thats what i thot too

Why?

Exacto solo 2 quarts y medio. No mas.

You need to change filter every 30,000 to 50,000 miles.

Jaymin it depends, I had my car on ramps. Servicing the car on a lift (like a dealer would) may only net 3 quarts of fluid. I let mine drain for a long time to get as much of the oil out, I checked it at the "normal" 2.5-3 quarts and it needed more. So I ended up using 4 qaurts.

It sure looked like you just poured in 4 quarts of transmission fluid, but you checked the level as you went?

Mine takes 2.5 qt. Regardless of what anyone says, measure what drains out, then, put that much back in. How? I change the engine oil, then use the empty engine oil bottles to measure what drained out of the transmission. The transmission holds 8 or more qt in total, but only 2 to 4 drains out. Therefore, I drain & fill at every engine oil change.

3 at best but 4 u got to be jokin

I’ve changed my fluid over a dozen times on ramps and it’s only 2.5 quarts. Strange.

How many miles you have on it now???

I was wondering if that would work. Let it drain flat for a few mins. Jack the back and drain for a few more… can’t hurt

They show up when service is needed

The whole transmission needs to be dropped to replace the strainer filter.

It is replaceable, Honda says it's a lifetime filter.

If you can’t open it with a ratchet wrench just use a breaker bar.

I believe it's held in with a bunch of clips and screws.

E-man WakEr72 got them at AutoZone.

I believe they say the filter it a lifetime filter, I would probably change it every other service, maybe every 60,000 miles or so.

@@OrlandoDrivers it has external trans filter. It sits below the air box. I just changed it few weeks ago. You can do a drain and fill between 30k to 60K.

If you get your fluid from a Honda dealership (Which you should) they should have the washers in stock. Only a buck or two.

That is from Honda

Add 2.5qts and then go for a short drive to make sure the fluid is hot and made it's way through all the gears. With the engine off check the fluid level with the dipstick. The fluid must be checked "HOT" with engine off. Add a bit at a time but shouldn't need more than 2.75qts.

Measure what drains out. Add that much back. Double check the dipstick. Quite simple.

Between 3 and 4, mine took 4 but the book says 3.

Wow this was fast thank you Soo much for your time , information and reply. you are awsome!!! I have the same car and I need transmission fluid change! It's my on my own first time but your content gave me the confidence thank thank you sooo much.

You have to do it. Is not late for your car! Check the level of fluid,

did mine at 103000m

Wait for the maintenance to tell you to change it.

Below the air box. You will see it if the airbox removed.

born1sucker I think it's every 60k.

You can, just don't tighten it with an impact.

I believe it will come on at around 60k

Without knowing the history it's hard to say, if it's never been done I would leave it

Matt Lassota I have not. Could be a heat shield.

will check thank you! also please do more service videos on the civic i really enjoy those!

i hope youve found the issue by now, but if not, check your motor and trans mounts, my old nissan had shot mounts and would rattle like a bitch when i was at a light in drive.

Im experiencing this issue aswell with my 2013, Just cant figure out what it is.

I normally go until the car tells me or what the owner's manual says.

I have a 2013 civic lx

Brake fluid for most cars is 2 years. You'll get a notice on the display for the transmission.

It's an air freshener by Air Spencer.

It's technically non serviceable but it should be under air box

I just bought one with 260,000km and it runs super smooth so far, so you got at least another 100,000km

​@@pluto419that's nothing for Honda. My 2013 Civic has 380000km on it and the tranny is perfect.

I ordered the OE ones off Amazon.

The dealer doesn't get rid of the shavings or change the filter. Its fluid change only. Nothing wrong with either method as long as you just do it regularly.

Never flush a Honda.

This way you can see that the old fluid is out and new fluid went in.

I use the factory honda fluid. I believe it's dot 3 or 4.

johnwillyn should tell you in the maintenance screen.

Orlando Drivers hey orlando does it appear on the screen if my transmission fluid needs to be flushed? Mine is 2013 h civic its 108,000 miles now

Just drop it off at the local auto parts store.

It's magnetic so it's probably fine metal dust.

It is fine metal particles from the clutch surfaces inside the transmission.

I like them, have had no issues with them

cooper johnson yeah, it shifts smoother.

It does say 3 but have 4 to be safe.

Orlando Drivers i drained and filled but had to drain again because i put 4 based on what the dealer told me but only 2.5L came out. I wasted a good 1.5L :( you learn n live o well haha

cooper johnson any trans problems? I got my 14 honda civic a while back with 104k miles it now has 120k , should I even consider doing it? Im afraid of having trans problems

Pretty much the same. I will have a video on a 2016 in a month or so.

Orlando Drivers thank you. What are the washer sizes for the oil drain plug and transmission plug?

@@laviebanale I don't know the size.

2.5 quarts are recommended for ex automotive transmission

@@hankrodriguezhill7029 thank you :)

Not sure what the issues would be, I would take it to a shop and get it looked at.

Rabee Audi i have the same problem, my car is 128000 miles and do the same, vibrate when it shift and while reducing speed

Did you find out? I dont know if changing oil would help

@@javierosorio2044 Hi Javier, i actually took the car to a garage just last week, he flushed the gear and replaced the oil , problem reduced to 50 % now, but during the repair i noticed that air filter rubber neck (pipe) is completely broken , the one after the MAF sensor, i replaced it and i cleaned the MAF sensor and now the hiccup problem is 100% solved and the car run smoother, but still the vibration problem not completely solved, important note if you also want to replace the air filter rubber pipe and the gear oil: use only original honda oil for the gear, use only Maf sensor cleaner for the sensor, Remove the battery cable before you disconnect any sensor, never touch or move the throttle since its electronically adjusted or you need to re adjust by specialist which will cost extra money, and also note that MAF sensor is very sensitive device so treat it with extra care, please update me if was able to solve the vibration issue, thanks

Rabee Audi so this is my update I cleaned the MAF sensor with MAF sensor cleaner, i cleaned the throtle body with air intake cleaner and cleaned the hose, i cleaned the box with air intake , i change the transmission filter and the transmission oil, it was almost black too dirty, and the filter was so dirty too, so at this moment vibration issues reduced by 80-90% i can not feel the vibration anymore, the transmission oil its not red yet i guess it need another drain. Thanks for the advice it was to helpful.

Mine had the 5 speed auto, I have since upgraded to a 10th gen Civic, but this car had a little over 70k when I traded it in still working fine.

@@OrlandoDrivers k yes those transmission are bulletproof buyt let's see how this CVT hold up I got a 17 civic a year ago so far so good with CVT damn 70k is nothing had a lot of life left

@@eseven2547 I know but they all doing it and is hurting reliability Honda and Toyota not the same anymore cheaper and cheaper that's how they built them now and at times that damn cvt is dangerous it take a few seconds to catch on is crazy yes keeps yours...

Damin Reynolds not sure what the sizes are, Honda doesn't really list that. I get mine from Amazon.

Can you link where you get yours?

Thank you

Eduardo Figueredo should be CVT fluid. Might want to check the manual, I'm not sure.

Eduardo Figueredo, I run Valvoline synthetic CVT fluid in my 2014 CVT Honda Civic EX. No problems!

I don't remember, 50k maybe

osman zinnur varol all of it isn’t anyway... torque converter is still full

@@lunargentleman3750 Does THAT need to be drained too? The fluid in the torque converter? Thanks!

@@todds.6028 Honda says 3x drain and fill to flush iirc, I don’t do it. Just change what’s in the drain pan more frequently. Normally every 15-23k miles for me. Is a easy task to do while changing motor oil.

I would drain and refill with the right atf several times because there's always oil left in the transmission. Don't know what problems you'll get, but shifting will probably be one.

2015 Civic had either CVT automatic or manual. Midyear 2013 is when Civic switched to CVT in the American market.

Not sure what that could be, I would get it looked at.

@@eseven2547 No, I have the 5 speed auto. Thanks, everything is good now, I guess it was just getting used to the new fluid.

Ihate Dietcola this one isn't too bad.

South Carolina Roadcam I made that a long time ago. Haven't felt like making a new one.

KoreeC Orlando Drivers lol. Dat face reveal

South Carolina Roadcam I've got other videos with my face.

KoreeC Orlando Drivers I don’t watch old videos from before I sub. I barely keep up with them already

Get the crush washer from a dealer. The Honda OEM crush washer is a slightly different size from what you can get in an auto parts store.

its on ramps genius, how the f is he gonna back up and then drive on the ramps again with no tranny fluid?

You should always have the car level when changing fluid that way you get a more accurate fill level

@@rudolphmadronich1467 After draining it, I raised the rear end on the driver side to see if I could get more out. A little more came out. Then I lowered the rear jack.
