rob you the man! so many videos on this and not much info! someone needs to make a kit with all parts above. i see so many people just change the small round filter and not the strainer and the o rings are all wrong in most kits! thanks for this info i was able to order all the right parts after a failed first attempt.
@@denisewilcox7653 Great. Also, those parts fit the 10th generation Civic and the 5th generation CRVs with the CVT transmission. I used them on a ‘19 Civic EX and a ‘20 CRV EX.
Sorry I forgot to mention that if you plan to do this job, its recommended before you uninstalled or remove your battery terminals from your vehicle. To have a battery saver installed just in case you lose your radio and all the settings on your car. Same applies when replacing your old battery and installing a new one. For the radio is good to have your factory radio code.
Honda says no... but you can buy the parts to do the service, so 🤷. I made a video on how to do it, and the comments on it clear up the part numbers for you. So it's your choice. I will say that the filter didn't look bad when I did mine at 130k.
@jjsdiygarage1267 yep thinking about doing the same but it 50/50 lol it look like a pain to change it. Mine 15 crv at 120k miles now. Thank you for making this video.
It's not difficult at all. You just gotta jack up the car a little bit and you'll have plenty of room to undo all 14 of the transmission bolts. Just drain it and then you're good to take it off. Filter uses 12 millimeter socket I believe. Trans bolts are 10mm. @@Gia_7604
Hi Great Video and also awesome to have helper. I bought the same filter on Amazon but. Again, they do not come with the correct O-rings, except for the one that fit on the red paper filter. the only two reasons that hold me to this job is not knowing the correct torque for the three 12mm bolts and not having the correct size O-rings. Because i believe once the O-rings goes flat you probably developed or take a chance of the transmission fluid leak from the oil cooler. Also, i have been reading. on other blogs that there is a second main filter on the bottom of the transmission itself. and the purpose of this second small red paper filter is to catch whatever small particles filter in. And according to Honda is not a requirement to change it. that's why Honda does not carry this filter. But everyone who owns a Honda vehicle should change the transmission fluid at least every 15 to 30 thousand miles, or as recommended on your owner manual. Love how you made t look so simple without jacking up your Honda CRV. and great close-up video. By the way I think the transmission drain plug should be torque at 35FTlbs, same torque as the drain and fill plugs for your rear differential. Thanks so much for your great video.
The drain bolt is 35 ft lbs and the overflow check bolt is 15 ft lbs. The bolts holding in the trans pan are 8.7 ft lbs. The drain bolt uses a 3/8 inch ratchet, overflow bolt is a 12mm and the bolts for the trans pan are 10mm. Genuinely hope this helps.
This is just the filter to the transmission cooler. The main filter is accessible by removing the pan. It is just like the old TH200/350 type filters but much smaller.
There are also 2 square magnets installed inside the pan you can only access by removing the pan. The factory pan gasket is metal, I used Honda bond and reused as the rubber gasket supplied was wrong. If you have ANY build up of particulate on drain plug magnet I would change this main filter and clean the internal magnets.
Look up the chemical tests on other (full synthetic) HCF-2 compatible CVT transmission fluids and guess what.. they are all higher quality than the Honda (non synthetic) official stuff.
17 accord I change my fluid with Honda oem Dont trust other ones. From Amazon is 70$/5 q Filter no recomended. Yes you can change it.😮 But i dont on my car.
Bought a 2015 Honda CRV from a friend of mine. He changed the CVT fluid and rear differential around 25k intervals. I'll be changing it the fluid and filters when it reaches 95k miles I have all Honda parts and fluids. But gave the service manager the evil eye when he said filters never needed changing. Wasn't buying off on that. Friend I bought it from never changed the filters. I convinced him after I bought it that needs to be done. He also has a 2017 Civic with a CVT transmission. Bought all parts and fluids online.
@@McDzy After doing a 2019 Civic where I had to remove the air filter box, I would say it was easier from the top, the trouble I had on my 2016 CRV was locating the bolts to remove the battery tray. Next time I probably would remove the battery tray to access from the top. Be sure to order O-rings A and B separately, the ones that are included are the wrong sizes.
I did a valve check at 100k miles and they were still perfect. So I did not need to do any adjustments..this was before I was recording videos for you tube, it actually the reason I started making videos
@@jjsdiygarage1267 the technicians at your local Honda dealership are not the engineers in Japan creating the car. You're only supposed to use Honda OEM CVT fluid
@lazyrider6918 yes honda says to only use Honda H2F CVT fluid...that being said I have changed mine with (valvoline cvt fluid which says equivalent to Honda's) every 40k miles for the entire life of my car, which is at 150k. I say it in the video that you should use Honda stuff if you can find it, and at the end of the day it's your choice.
I just bought the 2016 CRV and want to do the transmission fluid and filter change, but whenever I look for the filter, I see 2 options, the one you show here and another that says "Strainer", so I´m confused. Is the 2016 CVT different from the 2015? What is the Strainer Assembly? I would appreciate if you can help me and guide me towards what I should do to keep the CVT working well. I bought the car with 72K Miles so of course I need to do that change as I can´t trust it has been done before
I got burnt buying a Ford Ranger with a bad transmission but serviced it and used a can of gum cutter before the first flush and got 3 years of pulling heavy loads and pushing a plow before my $1,000 investment snapped in half. Oh yeah, it had been mudding to hide the Swiss Cheese frame too.
Beck/Arnley 044-0383 Auto Transmission Filter, as I said in the video, the o rings do not fit. Filter does fit, and I just re used my o-rings which were in serviceable condition.
great risk of doing it wrong in order to save $200 labor from Honda dealer. Not worth it. Especially the filter. Cheaper fluid only save $25 compared to honda fluid but another big risk to take
