2014 Honda Civic - Transmission Fill Plug falling out
In this video I discuss the issue with the transmission fill plug falling out of the hole in a 2014 Honda Civic. This is common on this generation of Honda Civic transmissions as the rubber fill plug will be pushed out by internal pressure. Even after replacing the plug with an original Honda plug, this continued to happen.
A pressure relief valve gets clogged and needs to be removed a cleaned. I show you the location and where it is on the engine. No tools are required for this action and just some cleaner a rags will work.
Honda part number is: 25615-5T0-004

Good video
Great video, very detailed. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you sir
Great video, piece of cake in 2024 sport. Same bulbs fit license plate lights too, even easier
how is it now after 2 years? everything is fine after repair?
It has been about 5 years but I sold it last summer. The new buyer said everything was fine.
Thank you so much bro
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
We use locktite on the bolts as well
Thank you
Hi everyone, I was driving my 2009 W211 E350 4Matic 3 days ago on the highway doing 75Mph and using my brake to slow down for traffic coming ahead (BOOM) my Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is not an operative message, and the warning light came on at the same time, my Cruise Control (CC) not working warning message came on too within minute or two! To make the story short, I ordered Mercedes's OEM brake switch replacement part (a common problem for the E series as I know of, maybe other models too, if they are using the same switch) for $19.95, and easy to replace DIY in 15 minutes for me! This part solved my ESP and CC problems! P.S. Make sure you are pushing on the brake paddle and HOLDING then install the new switch, NOW slowly release the paddle. This will reset the switch for your Brake Paddle Traveling Distens, ESP & CC! Happy Driving!
Nice video, thank you. 👍🏻
What arrow?
The arrow buttons are on between the menu button and the set/clear buttons. There is an up arrow button and a down arrow button.
@@DIYGuyUSA is there a way to calibrate the TPMS or relearn it without that thing?
@@mcmjr405 Unfortunately, I don’t believe so. This tool is needed to initiate a re-learn signal to the sensor of each tire.
Cool!
Best video for this mod.
Thanks a lot
I"ve got a 2012 rav4 limited and I love it but why didn"t Toyota put a regular,spin on filter on it?My 63 impala had this ancient filter on it.C"mon!
THIS ONE IS MY FAVORITE..!
Good job
I would loosen the filter housing until the oil drips out, instead of dropping it so fast , letting the oil splash out.
Thanks for the video
Just installed mine. Thanks for the help!
For the rear wiring harness, remove the plastic box that around the 2 cable bundles. This will release a ton of slack on them. Also this is the best time to change the spark plugs
Thank you for the video! It only took me about an hour to install the cover after watching your video. The only thing I did different is that I put the extra weather stripping that came with it on the front edge of the bed. Then I put the cover on top of the strip.
Thank you for making this video, my new to me x5 was smoking bad earlier and this was the exact video I needed!
Glad it was helpful!
thank you sir.
Thanks. You saved me some time and money. Cheap tool and easy to use.
Glad I could help
Thanks this is very helpful God bless you
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks. After 20 minutes of trying to figure this out I watched this and final got it attached
Very clear... finished in no time! Thanks
Thank you. This was one of the most straightforward and helpful videos I've watched on a long time
Glad it was helpful!
Great detail! Thanks you!
Very welcome!
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. It's very helpful for replacing the rear brake caliper. An option to fighting trying to remove the E brake cable from the hole in the bracket is to remove the 2 bolts for the bracket. I just replaced one & the cable was seized from rust in the bracket. Rather than fight it or risk damaging the E brake cable, it was much easier to just unbolt the bracket from the old caliper & bolt the bracket & cable onto the new caliper. Thank you
Great tip!
Great video. Just finished replacing mine on a 2013 Civic Si sedan. This helped a lot!
Thanks. Glad it was helpful!
New to torque wrenches and I have no idea which to get for this as there are so many options. 1/2 inch drive 10-150 ftlb? 1/4 inch drive 20-200 ftlb? 3/8 inch drive 10-80 ftlb?
You should probably get the 3/8” drive one to start. The 1/2” is for bigger torque.
Can you tell me how many litters?
This would be about 5.7 liters
Thank you alot
Followed this and it worked great. 2 weeks later the swing latch would not release. I am not sure what is wrong but others have said this is the same problem they had. Any help would be great!
I had a similar problem and I think the connecting rod that is supplied with the new lock set is not as strong. This causes some flex during temperature changes. I had to disassemble and adjust the rod. If it happens again, it may need some extra metal strengthening.
Chevy made the front blades so easy and the back one so complicated
I changed my oil yesterday on my wife's Toyota Rav4 6cyl. I set the oil filter and hand tightened at first to make sure I wouldn't damage to the threads. Then I tightened filter until it stopped like you did but after I started the car for a minute and then turned it of, a minute later or so I noticed oil drops coming down from the filter. I may have over torqued it so this time I used a torque wrench and set it for 19 lbs., restarted the vehicle and no oil drips. Drove for 6 miles and still no drips. So I guess I'm ok. Anyone out there have the same issue I had? DIYGuy?
I usually go hand tight and then about another quarter turn with the filter wrench. It is really hard to get off later when it is over torqued.
Awesome job 👍👍
Mine is 2015 Honda CRV exl, I couldn’t find code either in glove box area or in manual, any idea how to resolve?
Only other thing I think you can do is register your car and get on the Hondalink website mygarage.honda.com and then you can use the "Retrieve Radio / Navigation Code" to get the number.
Great video thank you. Im gonna give it a shot tomorrow. Feeling confident now.
Great video. On the back left bracket you can use a 12mm socket to remove it and leave the bracket attached to the plastic manifold. One less step since you have to take off the bracket off anyway to remove an ignition coil. Thanks for the video. Very informative and helpful
What if one tire doesn't beep
If you move the tool all around the valve stem and that area of the tire and you can’t get it to beep, then your sensor may be dead. I am currently having that issue with one sensor and I am going to have to get it replaced.
I had to stay on the button quite a while to get a horn from both of my rear tires. Probably well over a minute, but they both eventually programmed. The two front tires were almost immediate.
Do you have a tutorial for the rear window blade as well?
Sorry, no I don’t have that, but as I recall, it was pretty similar to the front. You just need to find the right size for the smaller blade.
Yeah, I gave up on the rear one. Going to give it another try tomorrow.

Hi, Does a Ridgeline need a front end diff fluid replaced. The dealership said it did. I am struggling to find info on this. Thanks
Perhaps they meant the transmission fluid. The front would be inside the transmission and is lubricated by the transmission fluid.
Does this affect the opening of the trunk? I want to get a cover, but some sights say they will prevent the trunk from opening completely.
Are you talking about the tailgate or the trunk? No affect on the tailgate. However, all covers would prevent completely opening the trunk while they are on. You just need to roll it back a little if you want to completely open it. Trunk can be opened a little while it is rolled closed.
Great video, thank you. Adding the Corst Sport axle back to my 2010 C6 today. I'm sure this is sometnhing I will discover when I'm under there but why do we need to remove the H-pipe? Thank you again.
It has been awhile since I did it, but I believe there is not enough room to get the new exhaust in and out with that in place. Not sure if the C7 would be different.
Gasket went on dry, yeah?
