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
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!

Re: Cost of Transmission Fluid Flush
For drain and refill it cost me
3 litre @7.something = $21.something +
30 min labour= $25
All prices is Canadian dollars and from a Honda dealer.
