Just had a drain and fill done on the tranny of my 07 EX Ody, as part of the 60k mile maintenance (at independant mech, not Honda dealer). No, not a powerflush, just a complete drain and refill.
Van is noticeably smoother at the lower speed transmission shifts. That was my only complaint with the van to date was the harsh feeling low speed shifting/hunting between gears. Yes, the latest update had already been applied.
Honda dealer and mechanic (who to his credit drove the van with me in it for 20 min to try and reproduce the shuddering issue stated in the recall) verified that it was operating normally (prior to the drain/fill).
Now with the tranny operating better, I plan on doing the drain/refill every 30K miles to keep the van running happily.
Anyone else experience the same thing?
