Cost of Transmission Fluid Flush
I was wondering how much I should expect to pay for a transmission
fluid flush (not a drain). I'm talking about when they completely remove all the old fluid and replace it with new fluid, as opposed to just draining and re-filling. I've got a 1998 Honda Accord LX 4-cyc with 72K miles. I was quoted a price of $220 from a mechanic I trust, but just wanted to make sure. |
Re: Cost of Transmission Fluid Flush
I have been told by MANY that this will do more damage than good on a Honda
transmission. Just drain and refill.

What does Honda's service manual say? Modern Hondas are supposed to get a drain-drive-drain service of about 4 cycles. "Flushing" isn't recommended. And from my experience, you'd do good to avoid "flushing". |

Re: Cost of Transmission Fluid Flush
Assuming that I WILL go ahead with the fluid flush, how much should I
expect to pay? |

Re: Cost of Transmission Fluid Flush
I don't know, how much is a new transmission these days? :-)
G-Man PS, I consulted my AAMCO dealer whos mechanic was the head mechanic at my Honda dealer for years. They WILL NOT do a flush on a Honda transmission even if someone asks. Do what ya have to, but don't complain at the results!
