A good friend of mine who owns an 07 Honda Civic LX Automatic is wondering if the car has a tranny filter and if it easy to change the tranny oil? What is the interval change for the water pump and should the serpentine belt and tensioner be replaced with the water pump. My friend said that honda stated that there is no time interval for the water pump and should only be changed when there is an issue, like a fluid leak...Honda charges 110.00 dollars to change the tranny oil. My friend found a place that would replace it for 48.00 dollars. I was surprised that the dealer would tell my friend that there is no time interval for the water pump. Labor to change the water pump was quoted at 300.00 dollars plus 60.00 for the water pump.
How often should the Automatic tranny oil be changed and which type of oil is best for such car?
