Good, clear, simple description of the job done.
Your description says that there is a different procedure for cars with the auto idle stop feature, what is the added step? There is no information online about doing this on the 2023 models (which likely all have the auto idle stop), but they have the same Powertrain and i believe will be roughly the same as they also have the check bolt. You certainly have the best video on doing this, so thank you!
I only add 4 quarts on my 2017 hrv lx cvt transmission ...already 180k and no problems whatsoever...remember one thing cvt oil expands when hot, it expands more than engine oil..
Thank you for showing, it took a good while to find out where the check bolt was. There must be a dipstick shortage or too many dipsticks working on cars so manufacturers have to complicate things to protect their products.
Rigght and it must be just to cut cost in any ways 😅
My pleasure to help.
For real though, why is it so hard to add a dipstick?
Because they want you to go to the dealership for everything
Be aware that if you don’t have a lift, the car needs to be level when you check the fluid level. Either all 4 wheels on the ground, or some combination of ramps and jack stands to get it level.
I can't agree more 👌. Thanks for ur input sir.
“ How can you “check the fluid level” if there is no dipstick.
Pls watch the video, its stated there. Cheerz
Thank you for this tutorial. You may want to update this to reflect that this is only applicable to 1.5L engines, not the 2.4L LX models. On those, the plug and fill port are directly under the water outlet that goes to the lower radiator hose.
Well do sir. In Canada, there is only the 1.5L that I have encountered so far. The 2.4L engine was the previous fourth gen.
@@Cargorage it was also carried over to the 5th gen I believe. I have a 2018 crv 2.4

I would think it would be tough to do it at home with the car only partially raised. Liked your emphasis on getting the right fluid, crush washers and torque settings.
Well if you invest in a couple more jackstand and there u have it. 👌
@@Cargorage I’ve always wished I had a lift of sorts but no as I’m getting up in years. I’m able to do the oil and filter change without jacking up the CR V. I thought that it might be difficult to do the differential and torquing the bolts would be a tight fit. Thanks for your video!
@@richardmorse5307 oh yeah i know what you mean, 😀 those are the old days, now they make it more challenging becuz of the covers and a bit lower. 👎
Hi, thank you so much for your video. Can you please advise how to replace the filter? How long we need to replace the filter for Honda CRV (2018)? Much thanks
Hello, if i were to do it my own car, i would do it in the second transmission service. So, lets say about 150k or so
You don't need to change the transmission filter inside the CVT trans. It's a very low pressure only for suction. Unless your transmission gave problems like burning and chunks of a metal break then you change it during the repair. It's not meant to be changed that's why it's inside the drain pan. You just need to change the oil regularly to have a tip-top transmission.
Thanks for the video.
I just did trensmission fluid drain and fill on my 16 CRV awd.
I measured very properly thar axectley 4 liter came out and i put exactly 4 liters of fresh fluid back in.
Than ran all the gear 3 times but didn't check the label bolt like you did in this video.
Did i do it right ??
Please reply
You didn't do it wrong. The parts that you have to check the fluid checker plug is important to follow so you're putting the right amount. Pls follow the procedure in the video. The fluid capacity is mentioned in the video.
Thanks man
My pleasure
Thanks
You're welcome
How critical is transmission oil volume spec??? I drained my 2016 AWD EX-L transmission oil this morning (cold) into a calibrated container. I measured exactly 5-qts (160 oz). This is the first trans oil change ever (67k miles) . I bought the car new. The old and new HCF-2 oil was at the same 54 DegF. So, I put 5 quarts back in (w. new washer). Am I over thinking this???
Thats actually how much i would put in since the spec says 4.2L, so to answer your question (yes its critical) but as long as you follow the procedure and filling it and running it through all the gears then most importantly check the level checker and let it drain out extra fluid until you can see small drips then install the bolt. Thats should fix the overfilling. Ok

@@Cargorage thanks… got it!
That assumes you weren’t low to begin with. (You probably weren’t low if you weren’t seeing leaks, but I would check the check bolt anyway.)
@@StrongDreamsWaitHere always check the level check. Idk about the crv. I'm assuming its the same idea civic, accord, crv. The service manual actually says after the drain and fill and shift procedure to warm the vehicle up. Wait until the cooling fans have come on twice. After the fan cycle ends for the second time shut vehicle off, and check level. If nothing comes out, add more, repeat shift procedure, wait for 2 fan cycles and check again. Apparently you want it until it's a steady drip drip drip drip rather than a stream. Then again....what do I know? I do mine every 3rd oil change. I'm also going to do the CVT filter once I hit 50k so in about 13,000 miles. I'm also considering installing an aftermarket CVT cooler. I've heard really good things about doing this.
The level is checked with the engine off ? I am asking just to be sure as my Toyota requires the engine to be running.
Yessur
Engine should be off to check the level.
You better ahut that engine off or the transmission fluid will flow like hell loool
Gracias. Tengo una CRV 2017 con 60000 millas. Es conveniente drenarle TODO el fluído y no sólo el que tiene en el Cárter?
You mean like by removing the transmission fluid pan and change the filter?
You can do just same procedure i did on the video and the next transmission service due, do the pan removal and change the filter.
Hello, how often should I change transmission fluid? What is the interval?
Hi
Whenever the maintenance minder on the dash says #3. Or from 48-120k. It depends on your driving habit. For me i would change it at earlieast to maintain fluid and system clean.
Cheerz
I thought in the video you said if fluid comes out of the fluid check bolt you don’t need to add more? But why did you add more?
Yeah it was very small drip, so i decided to add a few more drops. I like to add xtra .2 or so. Just to confiscate for fluid getting burnt, it's not much so it' all good.
@@Cargorage ok thanks. Planning to do the transmission fluid change on a 2016 CRV just wanted an explanation on what you did so I can do the same. Great video by the way
Oh thanks!🙂
It would’ve helped if you had shown it the second time after you added and when the drips stop. Final dribble for an hour.
thanks friend, how many quarts do i need for CRV 2018 motor 2.4.
I'm sorry but there's no 2.4L engine here, as far as I know... They're all 1.5L
@@Cargorage 2017 LX Model has the 2.4L
@@confusedcynic9073 maybe thr 2016 crv have thr 2.4L not the same generation crv i did.
Search for 2016 CR-V thry have 2.4L engines
Hi how much miles I need to change transmission fluid on 2018 Honda CR-V ex thankyou
Basicallly when maintenance service is calling for SUB 3 (TRANSMISSION SERVICE)
depending on your driving habits. The maintenance minder will come on the dash, ranges from 48k-110k. For my car, ill do it at 50k-60k. Thats just my choice.
How many quarts do I need for a 2 Wheel Drive 2019 CR-V
3.8 quarts
What size crusher washer for the drain plug and the check plug?
14mm inside and 22 outside diameter
@@Cargorage So the crush washer is the same for the drain plug and the check plug?
@@robertedwards5456 the level check plug is smaller possible a 12mm or 10mm or in between.
@@Cargorage Thank you
Where's the transmission fluid filter located. Is it inside of the drain well?
Remove the transmission pan then youll see it in there.
You don't need to change the transmission filter inside the CVT trans. It's a very low pressure only for suction. Unless your transmission gave problems like burning and chunks of a metal break then you change it during the repair. It's not meant to be changed that's why it's inside the drain pan. You just need to change the oil regularly to have a tip-top transmission.
Is this procedure done on a cold transmission?
Better at normal operating temperature condition.
Its in/lbs not ft/lbs correct?
Its ft/lbs.
Nah i was wrong it is ft lbs. Inch pounds is super light
4.5 qts.. and youre good , no need to do the ck bolt
I would do 4.6L not qts without checking the level.😀 GL
@@Cargorage yes liters not qts
I drained my CrV 17 awd 4.7 liters . i filled back in 4.7 liters. Do i have to check the check bolt level? Thanks appreciated
You wouldn't have to if you don't wanna make sure. But its always better to make sure
Waaaay too much background noise!
😅
