Ive finally got the notification on my car dash to do a transmission fluid change at around 55K miles.

I tried to find the intervals that’s recommended but it’s incredibly difficult to find. The owners manual doesn’t have anything, and online reveals every 30K I should be doing this but never have been recommended when I bring it for service nor do I remember the service light coming on to say I needed it.

I got quoted 300+ dollars for a flush at atleast two shops.

I’m more than capable of doing a drain and fill myself. But I wanted Hondas specific recommendations and can’t find it anywhere it just states change but nothing about a flush or drain and fill.

My two questions are:

1.Does anyone know where I could find the official recommendations?

2.would a drain and fill be fine or should I fork over the money to have a flush done.

    Make sure they swap out the filter on a drain and fill. If it came full of oil, it stays full of oil. Unless you take it apart.
