Quick video showing step by step instructions on how to change the transmission fluid on your Honda Accord CVT transmission

I did the CVT fluid change on my Accord Sport too. This process is very similar to changing the ATF fluid on the Honda AT transmission except that you don't have the dipstick on this CVT AT. That's why they have the check bolt to determine the right level of the CVT fluid after the procedure to warm up the AT fluid. Make sure that you drop the car level to the ground after removing the drain bolt to get most of the old fluid out. The fluid capacity for the Accord CVT is 3.9 Qts. I used the same 4 Qts fill and took out the check bolt, there is very little fluid that come out. You are right, this CVT fluid is definitely liquid gold at $12/qt, it has the same color as the golden pilsner but thicker. The old fluid has an amber color like dark ale after 30K, not bad looking but it is time. The dark gray residue on the drain bolt is very much the same as it is on the regular 5 or 6sp AT drain bolt. It is the wear on the CVT belt as it spins on the variable diameter discs to change speed. As far as the crush washer, there are two, one for the drain bolt and one for the check bolt. Unless they were severely deformed, you don't need to replace it but they are relatively cheap, you may as well do it since you already had it opened up.

I recently bought a pre-owned 2017 Accord from a Honda dealer with on only 25000 miles on her, it was a lease return. Entire service was done by the same dealer. Since the mileage was so low, I don't think the dealer had touched transmission fluid. When I drained out the transmission fluid, there were about 4.7 Quarts. It was way overfilled. So I agree with you, it is important to check the level. Don't just replaced the same amount. The car runs so much better with the correct amount of TF.

And no they do not use a machine, the CVT does not have any cooler lines, nowhere to suck the fluid in/out from other than the drain and check plugs.

Thanks for the video. Very helpful especially the part about running it through the drive modes. One thing though, I drained out about six ounces OVER a gallon. I bought the car new and it now has 30,000 miles on it. I replaced with four quarts of new fluid but did not use the bleeder bolt. I actually put back less than I took out. I figure an extra nine ounces will do no harm seeing how the factory put in an extra fifteen.

+Repairs & Reviews ...Huh, this was weird. You gave me guilty conscience so I went out and removed the bleeder....nothing came out! It spit a little but really nothing. So now I'm thinking that more drained out than what Honda figured. I initially drained it with the car level but when I jacked up the left side of the car to replace the plug more came out. Maybe that is why I got over a gallon? Come Monday I'll pick up another quart and add some until the bleeder lets it out. BTW, the dealer price was $11.99 per quart. Then I asked the parts guy if somebody else made the stuff cheaper. The parts guy then said "I can give it to you for $9 per quart". OK I said.

Great video and thanks this is the first vid I've seen where you can reach the check-bolt from the top...BIG help. Have you ever tried using heavy duty wire tie that's sturdy and long enough it can't fall and fill hole... To check fluid level? Aka. Homemade dipstick... I just tried this myself to see fluid quality with wire tie (used this method before with heavy equipment in certain situations) I'd be curious how many inches are on the wire tie when it touches bottom?? & If this method would work? It'd be nice... Just to pull fill hole plug and check. (I've noticed slight seepage between CVT and engine... Not dripping... Have you noticed this after 5yrs? This is the reason I want a quick reference dipstick so I can check regularly when i check engine oil & other fluids.) Thanks!

Kyle dolitttle I've never actually replaced the washers on any of my vehicles but for video purposes I mentioned it. Only reason I've started torquing my drain plugs is because I've seen to many aluminum pans striped out. So I just take the extra step to torque them as a precaution. Thanks for watching!

Without the (easy)ability to check level of trans oil,it would probably be best to measure what you took out,then replace with that same amount.This is what I do on all my Hondas. Thanks for the video.

This is true but if the level dropped for any reason (low from the factory, leaking, etc.) what you drain may not be the correct amount. Better safe than sorry. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for a great video. How were you able to reach to the drain plug without jacking up the vehicle and the car is so low? For short people, I would think it is a challenge.

Thank you for the video. What happens for you don't take check bolt out? and you have too much fluid (4qts)
@cakepower1
@cakepower1 4 жыл бұрын
I know this comment is old but for anyone wondering, well if you add jus 4quarts and don't bother checking then their may or may not be too much or not enough fluid. The point of the check bolt is to have the recommend amount of fluid by the manufacturer. Having too little can damage a transmission and having too much can also damage it but usually as long as you add the 4 quarts you should be good but checking the bolt on a level surface is just better imo It's honestly not a big deal to do, if your having trouble from under the hood I suggest loosing the bolt from under the car then lowering the car and loosen by hand from the top and have the oil pan ready to catch the excess oil. Once it starts dripping just hand tighten and go under again or try tighten with the wrench from the top so you don't have to lift the car again

Correct me if I'm wrong, but should the engine be at full operating temperature? I heard somewhere, wait for radiator fan to cycle twice before shutting her down and pulling check bolt.

This is a great video and a awesome job! Just a FYI, I use Amsoil 100% Synthetic CVT oil that meets Honda specs and I have zero problems with my 17 Accord LX since I changed it at 20K miles. I had a vibration before the fluid change and it drove me nuts. it’s gone and it runs so much smoother.

I have two Accords and I've been changing transmission fluids in them for a while, even before they got rid of the dipstick. The way I do it is to measure what comes out into the drain pan and put back exactly the same amount into the fill hole. No need to touch the check bolt at all. This saves a step. And yes, I know you are relying on Honda's people to have correctly filled the level to begin with.

The problem is if you're doing it for the first time, the dealer may have overfilled it (which was my case). After you change it, though, your method makes sense.

I believe there is a filter located under the battery tray in the transmission cooler. I've seen a couple videos on how to replace it. Im at 67k on my car but my fluid still comes out clean. I've changed it 3x. I'll probably do the filter next time.

Awesome video! Very concise and informative. May I ask, when you said to be "alarmed" at 3:53. What exactly is it that we need to be alarmed about? I haven't changed my transmission fluids in forever and this is the first time I do it, so I might find chunks of metals on the magnet :(.

The information I was reading from my phone I found online, someone had put the transmission procedure online. As far is getting a real paper service manual, I'm assuming you can order one from your Honda dealer. Your local auto parts store has basic service manuals but I've found them to be useless in my opinion. Thanks for watching!

Make sure the engine is at operating temp and on level ground, shut car off, immediately pull the check plug, let it drain to a trickle and reinstall plug. You could measure the fluid but it's always best to double check your work just in case. Thanks for watching!
