  • In this video I show you how I change the automatic transmission fluid on a Honda Civic 2006 (drain and fill). The exact vehicle is a 2006 Honda Civic EX with an automatic transmission. Doing this procedure every 30, 000 miles can really help keep a Honda transmission in good working order.
    Civics with manual transmissions or CVTs will have a different procedure than the one shown on this video.

    this has been a very detailed tutorial. I could see you really know your Honda and take good care of your car. You deserve to be the #1 search when looking for this specific topic. Really insightful video that doesn't miss a step!

    One of the most thorough yet quick videos I've seen for working on the civic. Most videos people are annoying with guys blabbing on, talking to themselves slowly and it takes forever etc. Nicely done. Thanks.

    "Don't get under a vehicle without jackstands under it." YES. Also, as a backup measure, I keep my floor jack in place just in case their is a failure with one or more jackstands. Never know.

    Wow. Can't believe I paid $100 once for a transmission service when this was all that needed to be done. Doing that and oil changes at home now. Cheers for the video bud!

    Just some friendly advice: Never go under you car without Jack stands and another very important thing: Always have some one with you when working under a vehicle. For some reason the jack stands fail your partner can get the jack and get you out of there.

  • @geckoswan1

    I am doing this tomorrow on my 2010 Civic. This was the perfect video to make sure I do it correctly. Thank you!

    Thank you. Done and explained professionally. No talking about unrelated subjects. No laud music in the background. All together great video

  • @surf6009

    I purchased a Honda civic 2010. Odometer was about 79,000. I drive an insane amount to work. I really need to start getting things like this done, as I have no car maintenance history at all. I can do this myself, as I have the tools. This video will help me for sure.

    Most excellent! Some points you might try. Keep and mark ounce levels on some old plastic juice jugs for using. Drain out into one. Put a mark on jug. I use a piece of painters tape. Drain that into another jug and refill with new ATF right to the mark. That way you’re assured of putting in exactly what came out without measuring anything. This approach works great for other car fluids too. These jugs drain overnight almost completely then just a little gasoline in them to clean them up for next time. Mine took 85 ounces or 2.65 quarts. Great video

    Great video, concise. Very easy job. I agree with doing this every 30,000 miles. My mom gave me her 2008 Honda Civic with 78,000 miles, which is low mileage for a car that age. I just changed the transmission fluid today (it had never been changed before), and fluid was a grayish brown, instead of red. Was a fair amount of metal sludge on the drain plug magnet as well. I'm going to do one or two more drain and fills in the next few weeks to 'catch it up' and have nice, red transmission fluid.

  • @ignacio633

    Thank you very much. So thorough and easy to follow.

  • @rtcar6990

    Doing my first trans change on this generation civic. Doing 09. I specifically looked for your vid and badda bing this came up. When I do trans changes I’ve been draining into a 5 quart bucket with measurements on the side so I know how much to refill as a start and sanity check. I’m still laughing because yup my drain came up to 2.5 quarts exactly !!! Soooooo appreciate your vids and yes I remembered to take out the drain bucket before lowering. I’m sure you put the extra don’t forget guys message in because you forgot and heard the ooops I forgot crunch plastic sound of pain.

    Happy you mentioned jack stands. I had friends who lost legs and nearly killed by having cars fall on them.
