How can people dislike this video? It was pretty straight forward. There are still some old generation Ridgeline owners; thank you!

Transmission fluid looked abysmal, and usually you break the fill port before you drain as it could be stuck. Still liked the video though.

Always loosen your fill bolt before you drain, in case that fill port is seized.

I have used this ATF in a Honda odyssey which was z1 I only had it in it for a month before switch to Honda dw1 (what replaced z1) the shifting quality had issues. As soon as I went to dw1 instantly shifting was smoother. I think the Honda fluid is really IDEMITSU Type H+

No, there is very bad advice here. You should always use Honda ATF DW-1 now that Z1 is discontinued) and you're supposed to check the transmission fluid level with the engine/transmission hot, but OFF. Always engine OFF with the Ridgeline. That's probably why your level was low, and now you may well have overfilled it by 1/3. You also omitted the crush washer when you put the drain plug back in. Wow.

Crush washers can last 2 or 3 drain and fills...Honda ATF is not proprietary...I use Redline D 6.

@@mikeschlup5279 truth is you can reuse a crush washer almost indefinitely, until it’s thin as foil. You’re just going to have to torque it down harder and harder each time and risk thermal expansion loosening it up sooner. Have at it. For me, the cost of a few crush washers to have on-hand and use each time is well worth the peace of mind. You do you.

This video is wrong on checking Honda transmission fluid you drive the vehicle get it hot SHUT ENGINE OFF and check the fluid between 30 and 90 seconds to check level. Drain and fill add 3 L road test then top up fluid.

Yeah but it's inside so you'd have to take the transmission completely apart
