music: Ruelle: take it all

[@The818kiddo]

3rd time my transmission breaks down. I had the confidence in 2 guys already that only made temporary fixes. Cant wait to use this to rebuild my transmission. Thanks for the vid!!!

[@kd45914]

Most helpful video I've watched on a Honda transmission😂

[@HIboostRaceClubRAWHD]

Amazing to see mechanical parts come together from scratch. Wish I had the patience to do stuff like this lol can't wait for the next episode 👌

[@joelvincentflores]

awesome to see the whole breakdown being explained in detail. I actually have my transmission out of my k20a3 for potential rebuild since I'm replacing my clutch. I like the break down videos! keep them going!

[@miahmcbride5415]

Yes! Please more K series! 5 speed! More K series everything. Your videos are awesome to learn from! Do way more!

[@karrrrrrrrrrom]

That was very informative, not just for honda enthusiasts, for anyone who wants to learn about manual transmissions. Thanks man

[@jasonseaton3905]

You are diffinately one of the best mechanic youtuber ever respect man everytime

[@climax_6629]

You explain everything so good. Thank you for being very educational. Keep up the amazing work !

[@monksvoice]

to get my clip to seat, I flipped the transmission over, and bounced it on my workbench. The cluster settled and the clip snapped into place.

[@peter2raw55]

I don't even have an engine or transmission to work on but i appreciate the hard work you put into your videos bro Very knowledgeable! soon ill be working on a k series of my own😬! Thank you!

[@seroqu1537]

Bro, this video saves lives! You gave me the confidence with this in depth video. Thank you man!!!!! Amazing DIY video!

[@vichylehawj]

Best Honda Channel on KZbin for sure. Keep the videos going!

[@rustybritches6747]

man this is such a great video! honestly probibly one of your most informative videos you have ever made! it took me a few days to figure out how to get my H transmission back together when I put my LSD in! i wish there was more step by step how to videos like this when I didn't have a clue what I was doing! the k seires trans is just like a B, H,F,D trans except there's an extra detent ball and spring, a 6th gear and they changed the 1/2 inch ratchet snap ring plug to separate that case to a hex key. I wonder how many views this is gunna get over the next 5 years?!?!

[@jttylor6516]

Best synchro and gear alignment explanation! Thanks!

[@angelallmotork2429]

excellent video i tried to rebuild my 1st k series transmission and 1 gear set was sitting higher than the other took them out re aligned like you said and they dropped in perfect thank you!

[@Jackson911911]

I just started watching Honda manual (or automatic too) transmission rebuilds. 2 of your vids are very easy to follow, (this one, the camera was a little all over a few times...but!), and the two transmissions were similar. The last one I was was a 5 speed. Very helpful! Thank you!

[@Zympress]

I learned transmissions on B series. I Frankensteined an LS and put ITR 1st-5th with the stock 4.2 final drive.. Thanks for the video bro

[@seroqu1537]

Yo man, on the real you just showed me that i can do this on my own, gave me the confidence! Trans isn't as complicated as i thought! The hardest part to me is getting the trans out the car, going by this video the rest is 🎂! Man thank you so much man!!! I got a third gear grind so video was perfect!!!

[@xaviergall2233]

I have a third gear grind how did your rebuild go?

[@easyco99]

found your channel though the Fit Kswap vids... great info for an old guy who did light V8 camaro stuff back in the early 80 and now looking to kswap one of my Honda Fit's. Thanks for putting out this content.

[@josephgonzalez4418]

You have a great skill keep up on enlighting us thank you for everything

[@robertreid4138]

our chump world series series race car lost second gear in a s80 for the same reason. my understanding of that ring is it acts like a brake pad or spring between the synchronizer and hub. Your K series is the only other time I have seen that failure mode. THANKS FOR THE VIDEOS! Even if your doing things I've seen or done before I still pick up little tips along way. Thanks again for opening up your shop to us and sharing your experiences.

[@mikellewis2346]

Gonna comment again an just say what a wounder video this was to watch. Love how you did things twice at times when it was a important part to get rite. I will prolly watch this video many times over to get this information sunk in the old melon.

[@concepcionjose72]

Awesome man!! Seeing it from Puerto Rico !!

[@coolchop]

Fantastic description. Thank you so much!

[@XNoSpacesX]

Dude omfg. Watching this in 2023 and I got my car back from the dealer and they unplugged this I was wondering why I was having such a hard time shifting from 5th to 6th getting stuck in the reverse. I swore up and down he fucked it up and I’ve been searching to figure out what that plug was on my RSX.💀💀💀😂 you my good sir are a godsend.

[@VinnyDeez-]

learned how to do syncros in my b16 trans from you and now i learn how to do k series now!

[@matthewwallin8755]

am in middle of rebuilding my friend b16a2 s21 hyrdo trans 5th transmission this year :) keep up the great videos!!

[@dc5obsessions181]

I love you man!!!! definitely needed this vid!!!

[@AJSi-kj1ck]

Great stuff bro keep it up great content💯

[@matthewhoffman1138]

Currently doing a K24/K20 with a JRSC. Engine is out of the car and transmission is seperated. I was debating on whether or not i wanted to address the 3rd gear grind, but after watching this im confident I can replace my synchro without any headache. Thanks a shitload and I'll keep you posted on the finished product.

[@jordanm.8997]

Love it bro really got a lot of information out of this

[@SvetGolovkin1462]

this vid is excellent help. i just purchased a k20a3 trans for $35 and $35 for k20 intake manifold in ottawa 2wks ago

[@westhebarber5734]

Amazing video 🔥 explained it perfectly

[@MrEdgy81]

I could have used this 4 months ago, my K series trans was my first trans teardown and I was sweating the whole time. Good video btw.

[@jokerslayer6]

I’ve rebuilt two b series transmissions (GSR and LS). Glad to see how similar these k series transmissions are. Ready to rebuild one for a k swap now!

[@chaitea6987]

Very informative! Great job!

[@johnvela9727]

once again mark.... u never fail to deliver a great how to diy video... hope u have more subscribers and more videos in the future... put me down for some HSG t shirts.... support the cause!!!!!!

[@groundleaf865]

You are the best my brother!

[@sirob584]

Man this video definitely going to help me rebuild my trans. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Luisr777]

keep the good DIY video awsome work .😎

[@jo3lo85]

Great video def gonna use this to rebuild my trans

[@Nizheadgaming]

You sir are a legend 💪

[@philiptraxler8497]

Thank you for posting, needed to reseal this section due to a small leak. I have already experienced what happens when it runs out of fluid. So far, I have seen it has gone down to 1/3 of capacity of MTF. Ready to fix before putting motor and transmission back in, after replacing timing chain kit. Good day to you.

[@yadieldiaz6395]

Really helpful I really thank you for your knowledge you deserve more subs man I’ll keep coming back

[@digicreator1]

Man I been following for a good while ...love all your vids but mostly like videos like this (my opinion of course) lol keep it up man hopefully you will never ever ever ever ever stop making videos man. (:

[@backyardbuilthondas1284]

Hell yea some k series stuff!!

[@bobm2637]

Very nice. Very informative. Thank you.

[@DavidTeleiosis]

Amazing 👏 I need this because my 3rd gear synchro is going in my 8th gen si. Thank you so much

[@maxxibro]

I'm going to use this video to help me work on my box. Will give it a crack :D

[@robertreid4138]

the milk crate is a good way to set up the transmission for disassembly. I have always used a few 2x4 scraps

[@tonyzavarelli46]

Awesome step-by-step video

[@roostr21]

Just found this video (late). Good job. The tool you keep talking about is called snap ring pliers.

[@ellobo8593]

K Series in the title, never clicked on one of your videos so fast...

[@JoseRodriguez-fn1jc]

thanks for your video man it's had me a lot thanks

[@repocult]

About time ;)

[@danem6256]

Great Video! Please be sure to record anything else you do for this transmission! Would love to see you take apart the counter shaft and dif.

[@MannyRodriguez555]

You gained a sub just how through you were thank you

[@tinok.8149]

Thank you great vid! 💪💪💪

[@donxiong1775]

Great video bro!

[@MindstormEG5]

Thanks mate! i'm gonna replace the gearbox bearings of my ep3 tommorow

[@CptMishMashVonRandom]

Good work. you can just flip the gearbox over and the snap ring will drop straight in. :)

[@yardman0001]

Awesome vid guys

[@pootietang6495]

so dope!!👏👏👏👏👏

[@creercreo]

Muchas gracias amigo. De mucha ayuda.

[@69aknsg]

Great video.....

[@user-ep9ut9gh1z]

I’ve found with my Toyota transmissions the oem fluid is 75w90 aka gear oil, with that situation I’ve found it’s best to squirt some syncromesh in with the gear oil to get some more longevity out of the syncros

[@numberpirate]

That plastic piece is what distributes gear oil strategically in the transmission. As the diff turns it scoops up gear oil and flings it to the top of that plastic piece where it flows down to each part where the bearings are. Take it out and you diminish the life of the bearings. It is the same thing on B, H and Transverse F series. IDK about D series though other than the D17 transmissions.

[@TheRealNisu]

No bullshit i like how you explain things bro.. communication is key #subscribe

[@Ronnie1001]

Great video! But I think I would get a pack of plastic sandwich-bags and put each sub-assembly with its bolts/bits into a separate bag instead of having one big box.

[@joshuaplantan90]

really appreciate the video, i wanna do the synchros in my 08 civic si. It doesn't like going into first or second, thinking about sending it to synchrotech for a full rebuild, but I know it'll be cheaper if I do it myself

[@xsenceo89x]

@ The c clip will go in if you flip the transmission over. The counter and mainshaft will shift towards the other side of the case.

[@Breezy-uz1eo]

Awesome detailed video!!! Wish you can do one for a h22 m2b4 transmission....mines just took a crap!😭

[@charizard0313]

I like the guns and roses in the back

[@Ian-ec9kr]

Nailed it

[@victorcruz4249]

we need like 2 videos per week

[@ek91project]

Thanks. Mine started to be little rough but i hope i wont have to do all that but if i do i have a map to go to

[@humbertolopez810]

La mejor explanation how do , el que sabe explica y ensena bien …gracias

[@MrMorka39]

You are G.O.A.T. !!!

[@crankyoldguy2824]

Hello, I just subscribed. This video was great on info and visual. I'm looking foward to you doing the B series since i'm about to do my Type R trans 1-2 gear synchros and hub with slider. I have never done this so I can't wait till you post a B series like you mentioned in this video. I'm sure the K and B are similar since it seems most manual trans look like they are.

[@HondaStreetGarage]

+crankyoldguy check the new video out!

[@wam1004]

that sound when you slid the bearing back ontop of 6th gear hahaha. imma buy you a new parts box btw 😂

[@FixItYerself]

I really wanted to watch this, but got dizzy after the first 3 minutes. moving forward manually every 5 seconds works great though. thanks for the tutorial

[@StayReal-fuckfrauds]

The struggle is real trying to get that snap ring back in place. Thanks for the video.

[@leetos.4915]

Have you figured this out? I’m going through same issue right now with my 2013 Honda accord MT …days now 😞

[@StayReal-fuckfrauds]

@@leetos.4915 I had to pay someone I didn't wanna keep going thru that battle.

[@leetos.4915]

I think the solution to this is experiment on the shifters so the gears would have internal movements since snap ring is inside

[@leetos.4915]

It actually did not work when I tried it today

[@StayReal-fuckfrauds]

@@leetos.4915 im not sure I had someone else do mine cause I didn't wanna get frustrated with it.

[@edward420ad]

Yo Put Mean Details On Those B Series Trans We Broke Out Here Lol Madd Love Doe Bro

[@jesbaez5229]

Nice

[@robertobenitez9503]

Remember to take the speed sensor out! I damaged mine by not taking it out and smashing it on the gear while trying to separate the case

[@matthewgreeson358]

Can you do another video soon on that same transmission. With a little bit more detail.

[@MannyRodriguez555]

Did you ever make a video with the carbon gears and lsd? Doing one in the future would love to watch something

[@finder066]

Keep it up with the awesome videos, quick question are they carbon synchronizes from factory on the k-series Gearbox's? Thanks

[@Felixfixitfelix]

Hey sup buddy,,so earlier yesterday I’ve took my coupe out for a ride since it was nice,I’ve haven’t since the weather has been real shitty the pass few weeks.so I’m on the high way I’m diving and I started to noticed this wired sounds that’s coming form my car..when I put it in neutral out of the gear,it don’t make the noise,soon I’m back in gear it starts to make the noise agin,it seems to only be anything over 3000rpms.when I go to step on the clutch to shift I can also feel it in the clutch pedal as well..it’s like a rattle sound.i thought it could of been one of the pulleys,so I took off the belt off and it didn’t make any difference,the same if I was to step on the clutch pedal while the engine running,same thing still making the rattle noise and as for when I rev it up..

[@mikellewis2346]

This video helped me find y my reverse lights are not working. Rite when I bought the car it had a k24 swope and the reverse switch plug is missing and I thought it was the reverse lock out.
