honda 5 speed automatic transmission rebuild ODYSSEY ACCORD PILOT ACURA MDX

[@battheman777]

I saw the length of the video and decided to click just to quickly see what it looked like inside...here I am over an hour later. Fascinating!

[@GloucesterODaugherty]

Interesting fact. Honda automatic transmissions are basically a manual gearbox with solenoids to control shifts.

[@mm2010xx]

Great video. I don't get output from the transmission in anything but 2nd gear so I'm watching videos like this to figure out what could be wrong, shows the parts and their relationships better than the service manual.

[@dmalott0908]

Thanks a TON for taking the time to post this video! So many people can benefit from something like this if they take the time. Well done and thanks again for sharing!

[@joshuap8224]

Great video. Actually tells us what we need to know to effectively service this kind of transmission! keep up the awesome work!

@Talon Andre i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Royal Jameson Happy to help :)

[@LeeTmpsn]

thanks for sharing. i just bought an 06 odyssey... didnt even make it home had to call a tow lol. was shifting hard in lower gears and i knew it when i bought it. had absolutely no overdrive down the highway. i pushed it anyway til my exit then called a tow truck for the rest of the way. going to buy a used trans and try to rebuild it based on this video. what tool did you use to press everything back in with the plate? do you have a tool part number for that? im actually kind of excited to try and learn something new. doesnt look to terribly complicated. new sub and super thankful for this video.

[@bdstewie]

I had a needle bearing left over when I finished and couldn't figure out where it went. Thanks to this video I now know.

[@tomwynn3435]

Tremendous help! Outstanding job!! Thank you!!!

[@willietheboggle3954]

Yes yes yes yes this is exactly what I needed.

[@lotklear]

Thanks so much. Honda makes such durable engines that their transmissions typically fail long before the engine. And the rest of the car is typically well built such that transmissions are worth fixing

[@maxconfucamus]

I like that you lube up everything well.

[@Derrick_Darrell]

didnt even let the clutches soak on transmission fluid before install..

[@XxHyJyNxX]

Derrick Darrell if you had listened, you would’ve heard him say the clutches came pre-soaked from Honda... 🙄

In all the right places :p

Dude I wish you were in Texas! I need to rebuild my Honda transmission! 🤘🏻🤘🏻👍👍

[@MrWrenchHouse]

Did you ever find a transmission rebuilder in Tx? I’m currently searching for someone to rebuild my Accord V6 auto trans.

[@Bigjamez2011]

This looks very complex . I’m contemplating rebuilding mine or buying one rebuilt . The issue I’m having is hard shift into reverse and then a whistle or whine at 40 to 50 mph not super loud but it’s there , forward gears shift well and normal , replaced all engine and trans mounts helped but reverse still clunks sometimes , I just don’t wanna become stranded . Has 235000 miles .

[@walterwhite-d7o]

Do you usually change the differential carrier bearings too when rebuilding these? How do you check to see if that is needed too? (Not sure if this is typically needed for Honda/Acura Automatic Transmissions)

[@justincase3880]

No pre-soak the frictions in ATF?

[@智文鄧-d2c]

Hi, my car is Honda Accord V6 3.5L Transmission is M97A 5speed auto May I use same transmission rebuild kit like you?

[@morgiecorp]

Thanks for the great tutorial. Where do you recommend buying transmission rebuild kits?

[@Travelingcarguru]

Great Video! I have a 2004 Honda Odyssey with a bad one way clutch (sprag style) in its automatic transmission. When coming to a stop it sometimes doesn’t engage but I can get it going with putting the gear in low or 2nd manually. I’ve been driving like this for 1 month. How long do you think this one way clutch failure can last ? Will it get worse and ultimately fail ?

[@orlandocruz5578]

Where do you buy the rebuild kits?

[@Timemachine69]

Aren’t there orings inside the drums ; were those replaced too?

[@eksine]

Damn I didn't know the sprag was rebuildable, I wish I had done that or replaced it. It seemed good to me when I checked it though

[@tigertransmissions]

eksine Yes always check your sprag, even if it feels tight in your hand under pressure they slip. And yes I use a lot of lube lol.

[@nachomoreno549]

Question, i bought a rebuilt transmission for my 06 odyssey, drove it for less than 3000k miles, unfortunately the warranty expired. I stopped driving my car for like 6 months. When i drove it, the P0741 code came on, torque converter clutch circuit performance or stuck. I changed the sensor/ solenoid, replaced the oil with new honda tranny oil, and the code returned again after like 50 miles? Transmission shifts perfect though? What could it be? Help!!! Lol

What brand of kit is ineed to rebuild my honda

I have 2 bmxa transmissions 2001-2003, 1 came out of ex civic and other came out of lx civic. I noticed the lx has the extra 3-4 accumulator and the ex does not. Which is better to have ? Why?

[@johnbrooks7144]

'04 Odyssey BYBA. Did all this, put it together on top of the torque converter so the torque converter was meshed with the mainshaft, the pump, and arm, as I went, made a bracket to hold the torque converter onto the transmission, bolted the transmission onto the engine, installed the mounts, etc., rolled the subframe and engine under the body, mounted everything, fed the electrical harness back into the cabin and connected the three plugs to the computer, connected everything, adjusted the shift cable by the book, starting from neutral - there is a neutral detent on the range selector switch - started the engine, pulled it out of park and the wheels did not turn. No rotation in any of the drive positions either. The gear position lights synchronize to the range selector switch, Park, Reverse, Neutral, D, D3, D2, D1, but this BYBA will not turn a wheel forward or reverse. What did I do wrong in the transmission rebuild? Yes, I did replace the sprague clutch.

[@Christian4L60E]

I did same the thing you did and have the same results. Did you have the answer why that happened?

If you were to rate a 2006 Honda 5 speed automatic transmission on a scale of 1 to 10 for difficulty where would you rate it? I have an 06 Odyssey with only 248,000 miles on it (lol). The engine runs like a dream but for the past 5 or 8k miles it's been acting up.

No

I have an unusual question for you, can an AT5 trans be converted to a fully manual shift, like a sequential shift manual, ie clutchless manual

[@robbyreed7844]

hey boss you obviously know ody trans. my wife cooked the clutch in ours turning the cruise on and off, it was already shifting hard, would you recommend a repair? or just buying a used tranny can it be fixed? i know its hard for you to say but it literally wont grab a gear and it smoked pretty bad

[@killznone8736]

Im a few years late to this video, I'm a Tech at a Honda dealer. We don't do rebuilds for transmissions we just order a reman unit and slap it in. So I don't get to see the internals when one fails. My question is why do the Honda transmissions fail so often. You being a obvious stilled transmission rebuilder having your hands on multiple with different points of faliure, is it just Honda having a crap design or a mix of that and improper maintenance. Thank You.

could you help me with my 2006 honda odyssey trans? we changed the CV joints and during the test drive the trans stopped working and would not move. when we attempted to return it into park it made the still moving grind nosie

[@billspangler2685]

Did you by chance force the awd axles onto a fwd model or vice versa? I'm not positive, but I believe I've seen someone do this to a Pilot. I have an 06 pilot myself, so let me know how it goes!

[@billspangler2685]

Upon a few minutes of research, I've found that Pilots can be hard to find aftermarket cv axles that fit it correctly. I would definitely not drive or attempt to drive it and buy an OEM honda cv that you match to your VIN- NOT the engine type like auto zone or other parts store yokels ask you. There are sometimes multiple transmission types in a model year, and i believe the 06 refresh got a slightly different trans and the j35z1 engine instead of the j35a9 like I have.

[@RohanmkShaw]

Why do put in the clutches dry

[@user6860]

do you have a link to the 700sprag gear?

[@wendellgreenidge3362]

So you don’t soak your clutches in transmission fluid before assembling?

[@XxHyJyNxX]

He stated they came pre-soaked

[@GloucesterODaugherty]

I had a 1998 Honda Accord with the Baxa transmission and I drove it over a year with slipping gears. When the engine was warm it would shift normally, but when cold you had to shift to neutral then back to drive like a quick flick and it would upshift. It was kind of trippy when someone would be in the car and ask what are you doing. I say I’m shifting lol. But it’s an automatic? Yeah but it’s a Honda so…

[@steadicraft]

Hey, what kind of cordless impact drill are you using? That thing looks awesome!? The smaller one you use in the 1st half of video?

[@Derrick_Darrell]

how about you let the clutches freaking soak in transmission oil before installing them.. great job lubricating everything... and for everyone else, dont use that assembly grease on honda transmissions. just soak everything in transmission oil.

[@tigertransmissions]

Derrick Darrell reybestos Honda clutches come pre-soaked in Honda fluid.

[@Derrick_Darrell]

​@@tigertransmissions simply for packaging. its never enough. specially if the transmission is gonna sit a whole day or more waiting to be installed and filled with oil AFTER being removed from the packaging.

[@XxHyJyNxX]

Derrick Darrell Assembly lube specifically made for transmission assembly is perfectly fine as it is soluble in transmission fluid at operating temp, ie; it melts quickly upon first warmup. Regular transmission fluid is fine to use also, however, doesn’t ‘stick’ as well and makes a mess IMO. Clutches are like sponges. Once they’ve absorbed all the fluid they can, the rest is just extra and messy. You can dunk a fully soaked sponge in a swimming pool, doesn’t make it absorb any more liquid, just makes it ‘feel’ wetter and drip everywhere. Your call.. as soon as the case is reinstalled, filled to the correct level, and started on the vehicle the fluid fills the clutches almost immediately. It’s not like your starting the car in gear, no risk of dry-running them especially under any significant load. Transmission fluid doesn’t evaporate like water, remember this. Great video nonetheless!

[@Fighter4Street]

Hi, I am rebuilding a manual transmission on a honda insight, its just a normal civic transmission. Is transmission fluid as lube enough for everything? Do you know if I should lube the new seals before inserting them? Thanks
