How Often Should Honda Transmission Fluid Be Changed?

[StNora]

When a Honda reaches approximately 40,000-60,000 kilometers in mileage or has been in use for about 2 years, it is necessary to change the vehicle's transmission fluid. However, the specific replacement interval should be determined based on the owner's driving frequency and habits. Below is relevant information: 1. Replacement Methods: When changing the transmission fluid, owners can choose between two methods—gravity drain and flush or machine-assisted fluid exchange. 2. Before replacing the fluid: The old transmission fluid must be completely drained, and the container should be thoroughly cleaned before adding new fluid. 3. If choosing the gravity drain method: First, loosen the drain plug at the bottom of the vehicle to allow the old fluid to drain out by gravity. After cleaning, new fluid can be added. The most direct advantage of this method is the simplicity of the entire process; however, the biggest drawback is that it cannot fully remove all the old fluid, leaving residual fluid inside the container.
