2012 Honda Odyssey Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Honda's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Honda? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Odyssey towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Odyssey's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2012 Odyssey’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Honda's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Honda Odyssey? Yes, your Honda Odyssey can develop a transmission fluid leak.
