Very informative video. I like how you put the cap and tube plug by the hood latch so you would not forget about it.

@willtanner1617 3 жыл бұрын

yeh i learned the hard way on that. as a young tech I did leave a cap off, made a mess of a jeep wrangler... and in a panic made it worse with the chemicals I used to get it off the fenders. turned the plastic foggy.

Really good video, long time mechanic here and like your emphasis on checking engine filter after removal to ensure the rubber gasked didn't stick to filter adapter and removing trans fill plug to make sure you can fill it after you drain it, ask me how I know lol!

Honda fluid change. 1. Drain bolt torque: 36 ft. lbs. 2. Check bolt torque: 15 ft. lbs. 3. Oil filter: hand tight.

@swtfvk Жыл бұрын

the check bolt torque should be 32 ft. lbs for the 2014-2015 civic cvt transmission

Just like you, I added 4th quarts and had to add half more quart, so a total of 4.5 quarts before it starts spilling the 2nd times Do you know why the manual said the trans fluids capacity is just 3.6q ??

Correctly is replacing the drain plug crush washers on both engine and transmission. The transmission also has 2 filters. One showing the barrel filter behind the trans cooler like he shows in this video and the other is up inside the pan. Good video otherwise. It's the first one ive seen of many that is mostly correct

It's always recommended to shift through all ur gears about 3 times for more of a accurate fill.

@DrWhoRocks333 3 жыл бұрын

Your video is the first one I've seen that said to have to vehicle running while watching the CVT check port. Another video, the guy is reading from the Honda service manual which says "Do not remove the check bolt while draining or refilling." The check bolt should only be removed AFTER refilling and running thru the gears, and the engine should not be running. ...all according to the service manual.

@willtanner1617 3 жыл бұрын

you are correct . I should have double checked the procedure. the updated fluid check video shows that i over filled the trans by about a half quart

Thanx for educating us. Just wanted to know that when do we need to replace this filter? After how many miles?

@willtanner1617 Жыл бұрын

which filter? the transmission? it'd only a screen inside. you must disassemble the trans outside the car ,only way.

@timesfarooq Жыл бұрын

@@willtanner1617 it has 2 filters, one inside the transmission oil pan, and one inside the heat exchanger slot

Pre filling the oil filter is not necessary, but since you feel it is you should consider pour the new oil through the outer ring holes, point being the oil you poured through the center will reach the engine unfiltered.

@LoveLikeaHurricane 3 жыл бұрын

its clean oil, what purpose would that serve?

@xbrizzcakez 3 жыл бұрын

@@LoveLikeaHurricane Good question. Even though it is new oil it is not necessarily perfectly clean, even from the factory. also the seal on the oil spout can send small pieces into the oil filter, so when you pour down the middle of the oil filter it bypasses the filtering element and goes directly into the engine. It doesn`t take much of an impurity to clog a tiny hole or passage inside of an engine.

@willtanner1617 3 жыл бұрын

XBRIZZCAKEZ is right new oil is filtered but maybe not to the microns of the filter used. I cringe when I see somebody take a diesel filter off and dump it in the new one ....you just contaminated the inside area after the filter and it goes straight to the injection pump and injectors. in this situation it goes straight to the oil pump ,un filtered. the key is to get it in the small holes so it can be filtered. the main reason I do this is to prime the pump for a no dry start. I could have plugged the center to do it right

no chance of debris from the bottle getting in the pump

Good video. You got so used to doing regular trannys that you forgot CVTs don’t have torque converters. Don’t worry, I know you know that. You just forgot for a moment you were working on a CVT transmission.🙂

This is an amazing video, I'm so grateful and looking forward to trying. My mind is going crazy trying to sort through misinformation or conflicting views on the transmission "filter". One popular video was claiming you should change it by 100k miles and don't listen to the dealership which denies that there is a filter. I went to the dealership and got 4 quarts of CVT fluid and a washer, and she flatly denied without any hesitation that there's a filter for the transmission. Do they just consider it a strainer or not a necessary thing to change ... ? Any opinion on this would be super appreciated!

@dodgeplow Жыл бұрын

There is definitely a filter for the CVT transmission. It is behind/inside the CVT fluid warmer. You can see the warmer at 4:02. It has two hoses attached to it. Your dealer doesn't know what it's talking about. Here's a video showing how to change it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/epvUfqepprmrrrc

he sounds like a master mechanic. Do you drive a few and drain the transmission again to flush? or is flushing not necessary for the CVT transmission. What about the CVT filter?

@willtanner1617 3 жыл бұрын

If you want the ratio of cleaner to older fluid to be higher. I have changed other cars after short drives,only because of the fluid being very dirty.

@willtanner1617 3 жыл бұрын

oyeh the filter in most of the cvt are screens more than filters ,you can see through them. usually thin brass.can be replaced in side the pan. or just clean if in good shape. next service I will probably clean.

Why did you replace the engine oil at 60%?

@superperior 2 жыл бұрын

It's best not to change the oil every 10k miles or so which is what the oil life gauge goes by from my understanding. It's just based on miles not actual life of the oil. Mine was down to 30% and I went over 6k miles easily maybe even 8

@xbrizzcakez 2 жыл бұрын

@@superperior The oil reading was at 60% so the oil life was 40% used, 60% left. Honda recommends changing at 15%. Thats why asked. I usually change mine about every 5,000 miles, which is about twice a year. I've read that the oil life is determined by mileage/engine starting-stopping/RPM`s info going into onboard computer.

@superperior 2 жыл бұрын

@@xbrizzcakez oh I'm sorry I just assumed it was based on miles driven or something, 5k miles is a great time to do the oil change I'm use to older cars and using conventional so I'm use to 3-4k mile oil changes call me old fashioned but I find it crazy when people say they go 10k miles between changes lol

@@superperior My daughter has a new GLI and VW says change the oil at 10,000 miles. She just had her first service done. My other daughter went in to Honda with a 2019 civic turbo with 50% oil life and they told her to come back at 15% life. In Europe I understand most drivers go 10,000 between oil changes.

@superperior 2 жыл бұрын

@@xbrizzcakez as long as when it's changed it hasn't burned a ton of oil I guess that's fine, id personally just be carefull and make sure to check how much oil they get from every change and if it's missing some just get it done a little more often, gone are the days of 3500 mile oil changes 😂
