Honda Accord and Civic Transmission Fluid Change

I show you how easy it is to change your transmission fluid on a 1997 Honda Accord. This process applies to Civics as well. A special note. Some 90s Civics have a CVT transmission use Honda CVT fluid on them otherwise use ATF Z1 (now ATF DW1) for a non CVT automatic transmission. Honda fluid part numbers: ATF Z1 Part Number: 08200-9001 (Discontinued) Replaced by: ATF DW1 Part Number 08200-9008 CVT Fluid: 08200-9006 Since the production of this video Honda has discontinued ATF-Z1 and replaced it with ATF-DW1 it’s a drop in replacement for vehicles that used ATF Z1. The fluid change interval by Honda is every 30000 miles. Intro and outro music by Kevin Macleod (Incompetech.com).
