04 honda pilot p0740

[@TremondDirectorTruesdale]

After a thousand tries of taking the upper solenoid in and out cleaning and even replacing with a new one. I forgot to check the lower solenoid to look at the filter and low and behold it was clogged after cleaning that and putting the original solenoid in the car is back to normal, so thank you for this video, currently in 2021 😁. Mine is at 220,000

[@Redridininyohood]

This gives me hope! My 08 blessed me with a code haha (shift solenoids never gave me one) not looking forward to pulling the dual but today is the day ha

[@brentburkholderjr8129]

Same here giving me hope. I had the code for a little bit now. Now my pilot is leaking atf somewhere. It seems like it's around one of the solenoids so possibly a bad gasket. I got the at temp light on while driving on the highway. Had it towed home and going to dig into it later today.

Great video! I'm a senior lady and keep educated about my Honda Pilot 2007. Transmissions scare me after the last car went out at 145k at 4K to fix. I drove 2 Ford Explorers for many years with 1998 never engine or transmission problems @ 250k it just stopped. Loved that ride, not sure about Honda again ?🇺🇸👏🏼👍

[@Tailwind1]

Very helpful & thorough, thank you :)

[@shauno3697]

Just a quick FYI. Honda transmissions come will a fill plug. From your perspective at the front of the car looking down into the engine bay, it'll be on top the case in back a couple inches away from the rear edge and a couple three inches in from your right relative to the transmission case. It's a 17mm hex head and it's got a large flange. You'll know you have the right bolt because it will be impossibly tight when you try to crack it loose. It's much faster than trying to funnel it through the dipstick tube.

[@jfjcmalfmcndjdjcnksjjcjdjs7853]

Impossibly tight is right. I thought I broke my ratchet when I broke mine loose

[@supernintendo7579]

Unless the dealership took care if the recall or service bulletin. They cover the fill plug now.

[@danfountain3688]

What exactly was the trans doing b4 you changed the solenoids? Knowing the symptoms would help greatly. Thanks. Mine started out by slipping when it shifted from 3rd to drive. Now it slams into drive if it actually shifts. Stats in 2nd now. Randomly downshift as well

[@danfountain3688]

Replaced trans with a known good trans. Still have same problems. I'm going to replace the pcm with has the tcm integrated into it,and see if that's what it causing the trans to randomly downshifting and not allow upshifting.

Thanks for the info I can't remember the code but I am having shift problems I have already replaced the shift silinoid on top of the trans and a shaft sensor and service the fluid but nothing has changed so I will look into these I will have to hit a junk yard and just start pulling silinoids I live in montana so not much around here so I will look for a road trip win win haha

[@danielhilden7181]

Never use silicone an any transmission. If you need to use a sealer, use Permatex 300, let it dry overnight, then install. Why not silicone? The transmission fluid will break the silicone down over time and any excess will migrate into the transmission and can cause it to plug somewhere and cause the transmission to fail. I'm a Transmission Specialist and trainer for years on Cars trucks, semi's etc. A friend of mine came over with his ford car and His dad works for Ford, His dad changed the filter and fluid on His son's car, used silicone on the gasket and sure enough, after about a month the silicone came loose and cause his transmission to fail and I had to rebuild it. Do yourself a favor and use the proper transmission cement. Permatex 300.

I have a 2004 pilot. So i was driving fine stop at a red light and went when it was time to move it move but just stop moving the gears wasn’t hatching and then it started going slow. I push down on the gas to accelerate it stay moving slow. My meter are going up but I’m not moving. They told me to check the. shift control nozzle. Or mozzle buy I think it nozzle. When I shift to parking it make a grinding sound. I just shut it off quick. So it stops. Help if you can or do what you did in this video.

going to be testing mine soon. no codes but at 1st the car would some times slip out of gear and not move not even backwards then catch its self and work again. now she has been siting wont shift gears but sometimes if i shut it off and back on it will work fine for a block and back to no shift. 05 pilot no codes rn but did have the vsa light at one time would go on and off. think its the same as this pilot?

I have a 2003 pilot with a code p1750. The car does fine until it heats up then it shutters in 3rd? The code reader said clutch pressure control solenoid i bought the single linear pressure control solenoid from rock auto it will be here soon. Do u think that will fix it? Or do u think i should have started with the other 2. I guess i will test the other 2 like u did in this video when i go to replace the one i just bought. What would u have done first for a p1750 code?

[@rodneysmith247]

Watched plenty of other videos but know now if I use the original gasket again to use silicon. 👍 You didn't put down the prior mechanic for over flowing the transmission fluid so I'll do it for ya 👎 Very good video. 😁 👍

[@jtexas1974]

Had the P0740 code come up on 07 Pilot 2 years ago. Cleaned and tested all solenoids and changed atf multiple drain and fills. Slight shudder from TC but still driving shifting fine. Code only pops up in warm summer months now and never in winter. Thoughts?

[@JaboTheMechanic]

Hmmm thats weird. Could be the solenoid getting stuck during hotter days. Also could be the torque converter

[@jtexas1974]

Jabo The Mechanic what about the fluid level being too high? Never heard a connection to these codes and too much atf fluid until your video. Thanks.

[@JaboTheMechanic]

Yes if its to high it will cause the code to pop up

[@ethand4900]

I have an 04 pilot 200k. Shifts pretty hard into all the gears when not on the accelerator. In second when giving it some gas the whole car shakes (it feels like what worped brake rotors would feel like). Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

[@creatureunderthebed7083]

Chances are it's the transmission torque converter shudder. I have a 2003 pilot with 247k miles and I have the same bucking sensation when it gets into 2nd gear. I put in some Lube Gard Instant Shudder Fixx for $10 and it helped greatly. You can also help it along by starting in D3 first when taking off from a stop and then sliding the transmission into D after you get to about 30mph. That's working wonders for me. Trying for 250k miles! Btw, I've been doing this for the last 18 months and it's still going strong. Had to add a 2nd bottle of shudder fix about six months after the first bottle but manually shifting seems to be the key.

[@rodneysmith247]

I did the standard 3 1/2qt fluid change on my odyssey and have no codes but has a 1/2 second delay going into drive and reverse is fine. Any comments. I plan on checking as many solenoids as I can and replace the filter. Any comments. Great video 👍

Hey Jabo. 2006 pilot. 250,000miles. It deveopled a shuddering when accelerating. Usually happens at speed after lifting off the throttle and then it shudders when getting back in the throttle. Ive changed the fluid twice, replaced the front cv axles and it still does the shuddering. Could it be one if these solenoids? No trans light.

I have 06 pilot that won't shift past drive? no codes its almost 200 k should i be concern?

[@JaboTheMechanic]

So what do you mean "wont shift past drive"

[@billspangler2685]

I have an 06 pilot, and it tricked me at first. You have to be in d at a conplete stop, then you kind of pull the shifter toward you then down from d to get into d3, 2, and 1. If it won't go that way, then it could be a problem with your gear selector switch. Mine has 168k on the original transmission with the big boy optional towing cooler, but it shifts perfectly still. Keep that fluid changed with Honda DW1 at proper levels and you should be fine :)

Hello I have a 2003 honda pilot with 224,000 miles. It also has the p0740 code and I have changed the transmission oil and engine oil along with the filter but the code still came back. I am thinking about getting the solenoid changed but I actually don't know which one it is. Can you please help me out. All the help will be appreciated. The car runs absolutely nice without any problems, I really wish it will be a easy fix. Also, I had a question when you take off the solenoids do you put silicone on every one of them and do you have to drain all the transmission fluid too. Please help! Thanks.

[@JaboTheMechanic]

When checking out the solenoids you need to test them before replacing them so you are not replacing the solenoids that are good. DO NOT PUT SILICONE FOR THE SOLENOID GASKETS. Buy new ones they are a few dollars. No you don't have to drain the transmission fluid
