That's good stuff... If someone is staying on top of their CVT Fluid change intervals, there isn't a need to remove the whole pan. However, at the +90K mile mark, you would want to remove the pan and drain ALL of the fluid + clean-up. Because, when doing just the standard Drain/Fill - you are only getting 4L of fluid out / while the other 1.5L is still up top. I would highly recommend a 28K-30K mile fluid change interval. Every other change, replace the filter and o-rings. and On the third interval drop the pan and refresh/clean the whole system (minus the filter) / because that wouldn't be due until you change it the 4th time. If you do not know the history of the vehicle - then replace everything as shown and start from scratch.

I am due for my cvt service next oil change. My mechanic said Honda only requires it to be drained and refilled and the filters dont need to be changed. I didnt believe him so I called a Honda dealer near me and they were not even aware of the filters. They said to just drain and refill every 30k. After watching this vid I see it is important to change both filters. I am going to show this vid to my mechanic! Thanks for posting!

Yes! Definitely change those filters or they may clog and starve the transmission of fluid 😱

@bridgerlee7478 Жыл бұрын

Pretty sure when I bought my used 2016 Civic the dealer just did the most basic job on the CVT. Probably did what you said and just drained/refilled and called it a day, they're lazy and want the cvt to wear out. They fail to realize that all the filters and seals need to be changed. I have a feeling I need to do this whole job on my cvt. Don't even know if I trust them anymore. I used to get great gas mileage, then one day I brought my car in to the dealer to get serviced, and when I get it back... it feels like they nerfed my cars amazing gas mileage. I went from 41/31 mpg, now I get like 26/20 probably.

I change mine every 10k. I remove 4 quarts and add 4 quarts. Keeps it clean and clear. I remember the first time I did a drain at 10k from new, it was absolutely dark and odorous. Only 2 quarts came out (even after driving it, letting the fluids warm up, and cycling through the gears). Do it before the 30k, especially if you do a bit of spirited driving. I’m currently at 50k Miles and have never seen any shavings on the plug. The CVT “shifts” wonderfully, so far.

Very nice job Sal. Thanks very much. Please do cleaning and changing coolant. Because I’m going to change my coolant with another brand instead of honda coolant, so I really need to know how to get job done. >>> I used to clean my Honda bike’s coolant pipes following these steps: 1. Drain it. 2. Fill up the system with clean water then run the engine in idle mode. Then drain it. (3 times) 3. Fill up with Motul coolant (replacing of Honda’s). And it works very well 👍

I do about a dozen drain-and-fills with distilled water to clear out the old coolant. I run it with the heater on high for about five minutes between each drain-and-fill to circulate the coolant. After adding the water, I dle the engine for a minute or two with the cap off until the thermostat opens, then you will need to add more water and re-install the cap. Burping the hoses helps. After idling for another few minutes, let the engine cool for 20-30 minutes before opening the drain plug and then cap. For the last fill, I add a measured amount of full strength coolant to achieve a 50/50 mix and drive it for quite a while to distribute the coolant evenly. Never use tap water. I mix what’s left of the full strength coolant with distilled water to achieve a 50/50 mix, and label and date the container.

We drain it and fill it, lift the car run it through the gears for about 30 seconds each gear, letting off the break and the tires spin, drain it again and fill it back up The filters are not a necessity to replace.

No worries with CVT if properly cared for and maintained. I only change the paper filter, as the bottom metal pan filter is not pressurized. Important to note that Honda Civic is direct inject and not port injected, so I recommend spraying an intake valve cleaner 500 miles prior to every other oil change. I use CRC brand. Like the paper transmission filter, it is easy to do, fairly inexpensive, and will keep your car running good for many miles.

Hi Sal, for the heat exchanger do you need to place any grease before tightening on the inside or just place the bolts and tighten the heat exchanger? Also let me know what the torque is for the heat exchanger bolts... Thank you

@Sals_Garage 10 ай бұрын

No grease needed. Torque is 10 ft lbs.

I have a 2017 civic hatch 1.5 turbo , the dealership told me that they only do transmission flush but the filter can't be replaced because the transmission is sealed

@Sals_Garage 14 күн бұрын

Yea they are not sealed, so you can DIY the fluid change or try an Indy shop. Seems like the dealerships are not wanting to change the filters.

@Sals_Garage Жыл бұрын

Every 30k miles for CVT fluid change and every 60k or every other CVT fluid change for filters is perfect imo. I am at 90k miles right now and this is my 3rd CVT fluid change. Thanks for the comment.

Hey brotha! I have a 2020 civic hatch sport. I was wondering if this service is possible to do on my year of cvt? I’ve called around 4-5 Honda dealers and every single one said they don’t change the filters😂 and one actually quoted me over 1000$. Also one ever agreed with me when I mentioned these trans completely SUCK😅 goes to show even the techs know how bad they are. But yeah honestly just want to know if I can do this service on mine since all of them were telling me “it’s sealed” we can’t do anything but drain and fill😂

@Sals_Garage 15 күн бұрын

It can be done on your own if no dealer is willing to do it. They are not sealed so easy to work on. Save some money and try it yourself. Good luck 👍
