Third gen (2007-2011) Honda CR-V Transmission fluid change. This doesn't completely drain the transmission, it gets about half the fluid out. Repeat the process if desired for cleaner fluid.
Thank you for the video I would have measured the total transmission fluid that came out to get an idea of the amount that should be putting back in. Great job.
I bet that this automatic transmission will last more that the CTV one. I am considering buying an old 2009 CRV with 14k than a 2018 CRV with a CVT gearbox I don't trust those ones. Thanks for this video.
We had a 2011 CRV, which we gave to my parents. Now my wife drive a 2020 CRV. It has a CVT and the "earth dreams" 1.6L turbo 4 cylinder. I dont trust the CVT either. But we change the fluid every 30k miles. We only have 36k miles on it, so we really don't know how long it will last. The engine is infamous for premature failure because gas blows past the piston rings and dilutes the engine oil. We do oil changes every 5k mile. I was late on one of the oil changes and did it at 7500 miles. The oil smelt like gas. 😮
Hi there, had a whining transmission. Have a 2009 CRV with 170k miles. I'm not sure the service intervals. I was planning on doing a drain and fill. Mechanic at Autozone informed me at this mileage all I should be doing is topping off? Something about transmission material being in the fluid and if you drain it the trans could slip? Can anyone verify if this is true for a 2009 CRV FWD model?
It is safe to do a drain and refill. That's all I do for my 2009 Crv and it shifts smoothly at over 200,000 miles! Maybe stay away from a transmission flush.
@@jeflores1000 ...Yeah never flush, just drain you're only replacing about 1/3 of the fluid that way. a flush removes ALL the fluid and is never a good idea.
Honda states the filter is for the life of the car and no recommended interval for changing it, what BS, I've seen here on RU-vid some people have changed around 100Kmi and they are disgustingly filthy. They are relatively cheap and simple to remove and replace. Spend a little extra time and replace the filter every other fluid change. After all when doing a fluid change NOT flush you're only replacing about one third of the fluid in the transmission.
john whitley 07-11 honda cr-v is the same. the third generation crv has an external atf filter. u can access it from below the front of the car, behind the petcock for the engine coolant
@@golfmanmatt ...Does that matter, NO, I've seen how dirty (plugged up) they get, if you've got anywhere around 100Kmi change it! Honda claims it's for the life of the car I wonder why the sell the filter if that's the case. The filter is a pleated fiber like an oil filter...it should be changed. IMO maybe every other fluid change.
I don't understand my vehicle says 2.75 quarts ins recommended but when I drained my transmission 4 quarts came back out. But I replaced 4 quarts and now I'm slightly over the the full mark when hot. Is this going to hurt my transmission???
@@mr.j4509 I did boss. I'm just trying to figure out now why when doing low speeds if I let off the gas pedal why does my car slighttlyy jerk like a small force back a little bit like I tapped the breaks and then it's fine. People suggest it's my maf sensor or tps sensor but I know dick about cars. I need my Honda CR-V 08 to last lol. Had some drunk idiot total my brand new 2018 Kia optima recently and if this car goes I can't get to work it's 45 min away. So any help or knowledge would be amazing thanks again
@@ebusive ...Yep, it's a little extra work but the transmissions going to last a lot longer. I've seen those filters cut apart and they're pretty nasty they pick up all that wear material the magnetic drain plug misses. (maybe not all but a lot) Honda states it doesn't need to be changed (good for the life of car)...so why do the sell them as a replacement part?
no offense but that pb blaster did absolutely nothing for you. reason why is because it needs to excess the THREADS to do anything. by spraying all over that bolt there is no way it seeps into the threads...you can easily check after you remove the bolt it will be totally dry. just sayin. and that stuff stinks
