I wish I had read this comment before taking apart the battery holder on my wife's 2013 Odyssey EX lol. So it DOES have a filter, but it's not easily serviceable, but do you know where it IS located? Thanks!
This is a PITA replacement but the video helped tremendously. Thank you! Also, a super long set of angled pliers helped me reach the hose clamps. The camera is so close to the filter that it doesn't give an accurate depiction of how deep down in the engine compartment the filter is located. It is deep!
Great video, thanks! I just changed the fluid and filter on my friend's 2014 Odyssey last night and it's shifting much better now. The old fluid looked like dirty engine oil and the filter was was clogged so bad I could barely blow through it. The filter was harder to change than it should be having to take out the intake box and battery, but I was still able to change it in less than an hour in the dark while holding a flashlight so it's easily doable with basic tools and a little patience.
Did this yesterday because of your video. You make it look so easy, getting the clamp on the bottom side was a real pain but got it done lol. I don't think I will be doing this very often on that note, I think yearly drain and fills will be the thing to do instead of this. Thanks again for your video!
@@martinradtke5181Yes, I would. If you drive your car hard, any kind of premature maintenance will give you peace of mine. That’s almost always true, unless you’re experiencing severe AT issues, which would be much more serious than issues with an MT powertrain.
@@martinradtke5181 The ATF filter doesn't need to be changed very often, the only thing that could clog it would be wear particles and there shouldn't be many wear particles large enough for the filter to catch. It's not like an engine oil filter which is constantly being plugged with soot from combustion. 75K miles seems like a reasonable interval to me, but there's no harm in changing it more often if you want.
I couldn't get the clip off the ATF filter bracket. So it was left on bracket making it really hard to bolt together. After the job I realized that you needed really LONG needle nose pliers to get the wiring clip off ATF filter bracket. I'm buying a set of LONG needle nose pliers for future jobs. Thanks for video 👍.
In the end, was it necessary to remove both the inner and outer brackets holding the transmission filter? From the video it looks like the front bracket could be removed by removing the left bolt , then unhooking the right side. The filter would be free. No need to remove the two bolts on the right side to remove the inner bracket. I haven't tried changing my filter yet (Odyssey 2014 Touring Elite) but I'm going to tonight. Just trying to avoid removing/reinstalling any more parts than necessary. Love the Odyssey videos you put out. Fantastic work!
Thanks dude I was thinking I needed to take the entire bumper off to get at. I have a 2015 Odyssey that I've run Amsoil since new and I've got 123,000 and I've never changed the filter it's probably about time right LOL
I have been told over and over there is no filter on these. Also I put a new engine in our 2012 odyssey touring last summer and had the entire engine and transmission out of the van sitting on my garage floor and really wish I had seen this video then so I could have easily changed this filter!
I could be wrong but I don’t think transmission filters are considered a maintenance item. Meaning there is no schedule to change it. So service techs don’t. But I can tell you that on my Element, it was doing the torque converter shudder that happens as they age. Even after fluid changes it would not stop. So I changed the filter and it never came back.
@ric21122 wow! I have the shudder 😢. This is the only video or mention of a trans filter I've seen online. I have 2016 honda odyssey elite, so has 6sp trans. I wonder how many people still have shudder and don't know there is a filter.
Has anyone removed the front wheels front driver side wheel well liner, to access the filter? I remember that this seems to help a lot, but didn’t have a new filter. I was disassembling a few things to see if I could change the AT valve body, because dealer said I needed one for $1400. Changing ATF 3X took care of my hard shifting issue. Two years later, I am draining and filling again after 12,000 miles, no repeat of problems. Thanks for a nice video! Silly Honda owners manual says get dealer to check trans fluid…
very interesting so mine is not touring so I guess mine doesn't have it? I have about 100k miles now I haven't done much maint yet I bought it used with 60k or so miles from what I recall. What should I do? I was thinking of draining transmission fluid and coolant and spark plugs. I bought all those and thinking of working on it this weekend. Anything else you would recommend? also is there a fuel filter and should I worry about it or at what mileage? I was told on my Prius that I do not need to worry about it
Hey, your videos are awesome. Do you know if the Honda fuel filters can be replaced? If so, at how many miles and where can I get them? Also can you do a video on it?
MrRanger is this filter just on 2011 thru 2017. I have a 2007 Odyssey and have flushed the tranny but have never heard anyone say there is a filter but then again I have never looked. Just wondering thanks for the video 👍
just wondering is there any way to go from filter to new tranny cooler connection? instead of doing what you did on the other tranny cooler(Odyssey) video?
The filter is about 20 bucks, it's cheap insurance for having a long lasting transmission. Since it's so easy to change out, just change it every so often. More important is regular fluid changes, every 25k miles or so. Filter I would change every 3rd fluid change.

Yes clean fluid is more important.
Agree but I still plan to replace the ATF filter on a high mileage basis (every 75k?) for peace of mind. Next job at 150-160k?

I just did this yesterday. Great video but man do you make it look easy. That filter is in an awkward place to work.
I just did this. I don’t want to ever again 😅. Your video helped though thanks!
Please do a video on changing out the headlights to HID or LED units. I have an old HID kit I can't seem to get to work. Great vids here. Thansk.
Excellent close-up video.
Great video, straight to the point no bs lol. BTW when is the transmission filter change video coming out for the 2007 honda civic?
I have the civic transmission filter coming soon. Stay tuned.

As long as you changed the fluid regularly you should be fine. Clean fresh fluid more important.
I have been told over and over there is no filter on these. Also I put a new engine in our 2012 odyssey touring last summer and had the entire engine and transmission out of the van sitting on my garage floor and really wish I had seen this video then so I could have easily changed this filter!
As noted, 2011-2013 touring models and 2014-2017 all models have this filter.
@@MrRangerZr1 I saw your notes on that. Thanks for the info!
@@MrRangerZr1 .. i have 2012 odyssey ex (not touring, not ex-l, just ex) .. it's 6 speed .. does it have this filter? .. thanks.
Great video! Yours are perfect
I went to a very reputable Honda service center in Las Vegas. They only flushed the transmission fluid and did not replace this. Why?
Liability reasons.

Desperately trying to remove 2014 Odyssey battery tray but your battery tray removal video says: VIDEO UNAVAILABLE :(
Works on my side. If you can't see it search for my ATF pressure switch video on my channel.
Has anyone removed the front wheels front driver side wheel well liner, to access the filter? I remember that this seems to help a lot, but didn’t have a new filter. I was disassembling a few things to see if I could change the AT valve body, because dealer said I needed one for $1400. Changing ATF 3X took care of my hard shifting issue.

You can access it from there too
Thanks for the video
What is the easiest and fastest way to get to this filter: from the top (your video)? from under the car? or take front-driver wheel off?
this seems the easiest
I want to install another inline filter. Which way does the fluid flow? From top to bottom or from bottom to top?
There's no need for another filter, you already have this filter.
Flow direction should be marked on the filter itself.
I thought you had to drain the transmission fluid before replacing the switch. Didn't see that step in the video. Maybe it is not necessary.
no need to
very interesting so mine is not touring so I guess mine doesn't have it? I have about 100k miles now I haven't done much maint yet I bought it used with 60k or so miles from what I recall.

Anything else you would recommend? also is there a fuel filter and should I worry about it or at what mileage? I was told on my Prius that I do not need to worry about it
Same thing on the odyssey, no need to change the fuel filter. Just buy quality gasoline.
What is your year and trim?
@@MrRangerZr1 I have 2013 EXL one. What is quality gasoline? I always thought that all gasoline was coming from nearly the same refinery.
@@igorb81 what I meant by quality gas is buy from stations like chevron for example. Not some random farm store gas station
My car is a 2011 Odyssey. Today, I disassembled it according to your video, but I can’t find the filter. It should be no
Read the description notes
Hey, your videos are awesome. Do you know if the Honda fuel filters can be replaced? If so, at how many miles and where can I get them? Also can you do a video on it?
lavie maintenant fuel filter is with the pump in the gas tank. I have a video planned, stay tuned.
Thank you and can’t wait to see it.
Thanks
MrRanger is this filter just on 2011 thru 2017. I have a 2007 Odyssey and have flushed the tranny but have never heard anyone say there is a filter but then again I have never looked. Just wondering thanks for the video 👍
No serviceable filter on the 2007-2010 odyssey, it's internal. 2005-2006 has a serviceable filter. How many miles on your van?
@@MrRangerZr1 68000 miles
Just do a single drain and fill with honda fluid every 20k-25k and you're set.
Do you think doing this job from underneath the car is possible?
With the driver side wheel off and splash shield removed, maybe.
@@MrRangerZr1 I appreciate it.
.. i have 2012 odyssey ex (not touring, not ex-l, just ex) .. it's 6 speed .. does it have this filter? .. thanks.
No you have the 5-speed transmission so you don't have this
Do you know if the 2016 Honda Pilot has a filter like this
If it's a 6 speed yes
just wondering is there any way to go from filter to new tranny cooler connection? instead of doing what you did on the other tranny cooler(Odyssey) video?
Just run the new cooler return line to the filter. The filter is before the ATF returns to the transmission.
Is this a Honda Odyssey touring, with a 6 speed auto?
Yes, check description for complete info.
Could someone please tell me where the transmission switch forcthec5th clutch is..
Check the comment section in my other video I have it posted: ua-cam.com/video/fXcXf1KcvBo/v-deo.html
Does an exl 2013 has an external filter too
No as listed in description
It's an inline transmision filter, isn't it ?
Yes
Thank you!!
How much fluid goes back in?
Check the dipstick and add accordingly
what is the interval replacement of ATF filter?
I would do it every 50k-60k. There is no specified interval.
@@MrRangerZr1 what's the part number?
So at what mileage should you do this? And how often should you change a tranny fluid?
I would do this every 50k-60k miles, no specified interval. Transmission fluid every 20-25k miles.
pilot 2012 have atf filter???
No internal
@@MrRangerZr1 thank you
I talked to a Honda technician and these do not usually need to be changed. Can you confirm when it needs to be changed?
The filter is about 20 bucks, it's cheap insurance for having a long lasting transmission. Since it's so easy to change out, just change it every so often. More important is regular fluid changes, every 25k miles or so. Filter I would change every 3rd fluid change.
Does the 2018 odyssey have a similar process?
Almost. Refer to my civic atf filter video, it has a filter like that.
