Re: Adding a transmission filter to a modern Honda ?
There is a filter in the fuel tank on the 1998 and later accords. I would
like a regular maintenance filter though.
And Honda has never had a replaceable transmission filter, except on a few
of their transmission in the v6 cars (1991-1995 legend for example). I've
seen a 1991 accord with over 300,000 miles on the original transmission, so
I wouldn't worry too much about it. Just change the fluid regularly. I
have a legend (without a replaceable filter) with over 400,000 miles on the
tranny and no rebuild to my knowledge. (though my other legend isn't so
lucky... I have bad luck with transmissions)
