I was told by my dealer that the CVT fluid should be changed every 30,000 miles. I had over 40K on my old HRV when it got totaled and the new one I got has 26K. Just checking to see if this is really needed at 30K. I don't remember if I had this service done so soon on my other HRV.


What ya think?

New(ish) owner and looking through service documents (all done at Honda dealerships) I can't find any evidence that the CVT fluid was ever changed (vehicle has 70K miles now). Called the original dealer to confirm. I'm a bit annoyed (both at myself for not knowing pre-buy but also that a Honda dealer wouldn't have done or recommended this at the right intervals).

That said, I'm going to remedy this. I have a good indy shop I trust, but is this something that should really go back to Honda to complete? Is there anything unique that would require their eyes or equipment?
