• HOW TO CHECK, TOP OFF ...
Transmission Drain and Fill Bolts were torque to 30 ft. lbs.
Trans fluid service should be done every 30k to no more than 40k miles for success and correct care of the transmission.
Awesome you were the first one on the Internet to post a video of this great job!!
Your positive feedback is greatly appreciated, thanks!
Great video, thanks for taking the time to share, I need to do this for my wifes RDX
Thank you for posting this video. It will me a lot when I do mine transmission fluid change.
Glad to help, I searched all around youtube, could not find a previous video with all the specifics I covered on these 3 part videos, I am also an automotive technician, so I felt I needed to help others with this new transmissions servicing.
Exactly. Your videos are the only ones on YT that show people how to change gen 3 RDX transmission fluid. Do you think taking off the driver side front tire will make the process easier?
@@JL-yw3rf well yes, you can lift and remove tires, assuming your trans fluid is up to normal level and just needs to be replaced, just make sure to measure what you took out and replace with the same amount of the new trans fluid and you'll be good, otherwise follow the link I posted on comments for another guy's video showing how to check the fluid level once you replace it.
Out of curiosity, what mileage did you change the fluid?
And what is the little paper filter called?
Who do you need to disconnect the coolant lines from the trans cooler? Why can't you just leave them connected and pull the cooler off?
This looks like a complete pain in the ass. Thank you for showing me that it’s worth paying a technician to do it.
Can you make a video how to change the transfer case fluid for the RDX 2019-2022? btw your video is awesome
Thank you so much for your feed back, going to make it easier for you, this guy has a very good video on it, with all the torque specs on the video description, all I'll ask is for you to like my video in exchange, thanks

You meant rear differential or front transfer case?
@@carstuff8208 the transfer case, for some reason I don't see it. Could you make a video about it?
@@NguyenDuong-ep7bp will verify and let you know, I forgot about it because it has not been mentioned yet for this suv's, need to inspect and see if it uses its own gear oil or if it lubricates directly from the transmission fluid, will let you know as soon as I can
@@carstuff8208 i appreciate you! Thanks so much!
Instead of using the bolts to plug the coolant lines, can you pinch off the hoses with clamps? That is what I have done on my 2001 Passat oil cooler, but the hoses there might be softer/more flexible.
Yes, eventually that will make them prone to cracking because of the diameter size that needs to be compressed, but it works, I normally do it with brake lines that are thinner and will shut with little pressure
I change the fluid, But could not reach the bottom left screw on the coolant filter. How were you able to get to that screw? I couldn't do it. Seems like you would need a car lift.
The word you were searching for is 3/8 drive
Dealerships in the United States don’t even know that the 10 speed transmission has a filter that’s fairly easy to replace one dealership try to tell me the fluid is $60 per quart. No consistency at all within Acura dealership service!!
That is crazy!
How many liters should a new transmission take
@@michaelginiks977 don't reallly know if it is empty, I measured what I took out and filled with the same amount
I’m now going to use Amsoil transmission fluid, which is compatible
Amsoil gave you the info?
@@carstuff8208 yes they did!! I also just called another dealership. They still have no clue that the transmission has an external oil filter. They say the oil filter is internal how can the dealerships service cars and not even know what they’re talking about very worrisome!!
@@davewallace9048 they are not correctly trained
Horrible spot for a filter.
@@tigerskone2945 agree 100%, engineers way of taking away trans fluid heat through wall to wall coolant flow
What ratchet and socket did you use to open the oil filter cooler? Did you open it from the top or bottom of the vehicle?
At this point you may had found your way, but I have a lotnof tools including ratchet wrenches, etc
Where did you purchase the filter.?
Ebay
25450P4V013 search it with this part number because it won't show specifically for the RDX, but many new hondas are using the same filter on their transmissions
Thank you appreciate the info
Bro there is no need for you to replace the ATF/ filter!! As long as you change your trans fluid every 30,000 miles your filter is gonna be just fine.
Paper filter bro, don't change your engine oil filter as long as you change it every 3,000 miles?
@@carstuff8208 seriously?! Please don’t compare engine oil change to transmission fluid change!
@@carstuff8208 just do your research homeslice
How many miles the Acura recommend the fluid change?
I understand in between 30k and 40k
No more than 40k
@@carstuff8208 mine has 45k and maintenance code b3 but I changed only transfer fluid.
@@oviss5946 you can always change the trans fluid, mine was a lease that I bought from Acura with already 50k miles at 1 year of it being used by previous owner, 1st thing I did was change all the fluids cause I know Acura would most likely only change engine oil and nothing else, now I plan to change diff and trans fluid every additional 30k, so next change will be at 80k, problem with trans fluid will be ignoring it and for example waiting till 80k plus miles when the fluid is already out of service life, burnt and then changing it, new fluid with all its detergents will internally wash the old fluid's sludge and clogg the internal fluid filter and the trans will stay in neutral because of no fluid flow, only option will be to lower and open the transmission to fix it, all this because to this day, Honda won't design their freaking auto trans with an external oil filter that you can just change like engine oil and filter
Very bad video.
