Honda Accord 2.4L Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) Service (2003-2007). In this video I show how to replace the automatic transmission fluid (ATF) on a Honda Accord. I recommend servicing the transmission fluid at least once every 30,000 miles (one drain and fill like shown in this video). Replacing the transmission fluid is a good DIY project that can save some money. 2007 Honda Accord transmission fluid change. The exact vehicle in this video is a 2007 Honda Accord EX sedan with a 2.4L engine. 2003-2007 Honda Accords with automatic transmission and a 2.4L engine should be similar. Enjoy!

Yo BIG 🐕, I came across this video after I replace my transmission fluid the day before yesterday. Excellent video as usual perfect torque specs. Upon draining mine, I let it drain/drip for 15 minutes, lowered the passenger side to tilt, to get more fluid out & and replace fluid nearly 3.5 quarts w/ DW-1 Honda (ONLY) automatic transmission fluid (ATF). I know Honda is particular on how to check the transmission fluid after a fill, your explanation was great but people have to see how properly to shift the gears before checking as this is an important part of the transmission fluid check level. You simply have to "slowly" shift the gears from PARK to reverse to neutral to drive to second gear to first gear & backwards to the PARK position pausing 2 seconds per gear backwards to forwards. This process allows the fluid entering all the chambers so your level check is properly read. After my replacement my level was just above the second hole at the bottom of the dipstick. I'm pretty confident that's not going to hurt if there's a slight overfill. A really neat trick is once you put in your recommended 3 quarts of fluid, poor the old fluid in the empty ATF containers to measure what came out of the transmission initially. If you have some old fluid leftover, that means that over 3 quarts came out so you may add a little extra to compensate then your old fluid is ready to take down to your local auto center (AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, Napa, Firestone etc) for proper recycling! I love my Honda! 🤗

Hi Big Dog! I’m glad I found your channel after watching a few other tutorials. My niece has an Accord Euro 2.4 CL9 5sp Auto right hand drive Australian model (this may mechanically be acura tsx spec, not sure). Checking it today, every level was low, power steer line leak. Without a Haynes manual and dead links on forums to workshop manuals leading nowhere I came to KZfaq. Not being a mech I like to have a specific guide when doing things. I’ll be going through your 2003 accord vids. I’m a Mk1 Focus St170(SVT) guy but I like hondas and do most of my own work). My niece doesn’t like the car, it hesitates (had low trans fluid), steering pulls (haven’t gotten under there yet but the last owner chopped down the springs to lower it) etc. All maintenance related. I’ll have it for a few days soon to work on. I wasn’t going to do much but I’m more confident now doing a bit more than an oil change. I think a 2005 with 160000mi/280k with which every button works and only has as a headlight issue is worth saving. Esp given the price for used cars now. Thanks for the videos, you’ll be helping to save a good car and give me a good guide to doing some preventative maintenance!

I drain mine in a measured pan, once it reaches 3 quarts I put the plug back and not let keep dripping or it's gonna drip for a long time. It let it drip once while while finishing my breakfast and the transmission acted up for a day or two, and I had to add half a quart in addition to the three. I own 3 Hondas with 2.4.

Someone told you wro ng .. the raised side of the washer conforms to the machined flat surface ... the flat side of the washer actually keeps the washer even and straight to the bolt and machined during the tightening process... Basically its works like a soft copper crush ring .. or seal.. if you will .. in theory.. But your right.. it will probably work either way... as long as theres no grit on any of the surfaces..

It’s a crush washer. The rounded side of the washer should contact the transmission/housing, while the flat side of the washer is in contact with the drain bolt, thus ‘crushing’ the rounded side to seal any gaps/leaks. Capeche?

Up to you, you always take a chance of something going wrong when doing work on a vehicle. In situations like you describe, for Hondas I don't mind doing one service (one drain and fill) like I showed in this video. On Honda transmissions, when this service is done only about 1/3 of the fluid is replaced so it is not as much of a shock to the system as others vehicle makes where all the ATF fluid is replaced when the service is done. If I am going to do a second ATF service (on neglected vehicles), I prefer to wait until the vehicle is driven at least 5,000 miles before any additional ATF service is done.

A Honda transmission service only gets a portion of the fluid out, so it it not as much of a shock to the system as other makes where all the fluid is changed.
