Checking the automatic transmission fluid in a Honda Odyssey is an important step in keeping the transmission operating properly. The fluid deteriorates over time from heat and the friction of the internal parts. Transmissions create heat quickly. Too much heat will make the fluid deteriorate faster. Honda has long built nearly all of its own automobile transmissions, unlike many other automobile manufacturers which often source transmissions from external sources. The most notable exception was in 2014, when Honda decided to forgo an in-house designed transmission and chose the ZF 9HP transmission for their Acura TLX V6 model, later extending the offering of the ZF transmission to the.

Honda has long built nearly all of its own automobiletransmissions, unlike many other automobile manufacturers which often source transmissions from external sources.[1] The most notable exception was in 2014, when Honda decided to forgo an in-house designed transmission and chose the ZF 9HP transmission for their Acura TLX V6 model, later extending the offering of the ZF transmission to the Acura MDX, Odyssey, Pilot and Ridgeline.[2] However, there have been reports of problems with ZF transmissions and Acura recalled its 2015 TLX models. ZF has attributed most of these problems to software issues.

Automatic/Semi-automatic transmissions[edit]

Most of Honda's automatic transmissions are unusual in that they do not use planetary gears like nearly all other makers, however, Honda has recently introduced (2017) an all-new, in-house designed 10-speed automatic that uses planetary gears. Honda's older transmissions such as the Hondamatic semi-automatic transmission and its successors use traditional, individual gears on parallel axes like a manual transmission, with each gear ratio engaged by a separate hydraulic clutch pack.This design is also noteworthy because it preserves engine braking by eliminating a sprag between first and second gears. Instead of a sprag or roller clutch, Honda's older transmissions rely on pressure circuits to modulate line pressure to change gears.[3]

Honda was forced to invent their new system due to the vast array of patents on automatic transmission technology held by BorgWarner and others.

Honda initially chose to integrate the transmission and engine block for its first application (in the N600) as in the Mini. The Hondamatic incorporated a lockup function, which Honda called a third ratio, and had manual gear selection. The company's early transmissions also used a patented torque converter which used stator force to reduce hydraulic losses by using a reaction arm to increase the hydraulic pressure when the stator was stalled. The reaction arm acted directly on the regulator valve this meant that increased pressure was available to the clutch plates when torque multiplication was greatest. The stator was equipped with a sprag clutch enabling it to freewheel when required. The N360/N600 controlled gear changes by balancing a throttle valve and a centrifugal valve. These 'opposing' pressures caused the gear changes through the free-floating gear change valves.

On October 18, 1967, the N360 AT model with the lock-up function was unveiled at the London Auto Show.(ref Honda Worldwide) It is not now clear if the lockup function made it into production; it was not fitted to the N600AT for Europe.

The typical torque converter of the time was about 11.5in. long and the torque multiplication ratio was about 1.5 to 1. The N360/N600 torque converter was about 5.5in. long and achieved a torque multiplication of over 2.2 to 1.

The first Civic was equipped with a manually changed hydraulically engaged two-speed transmission with a torque converter. This torque converter was nominally about 7in. and achieved a torque multiplication of c2.7 to 1. It also used the reaction arm on the stator as in the N360/N600 to increase hydraulic pressure. It was initially announced in Europe as an automatic as the staff at Honda in Europe assumed that it would like the N600 to be fully automatic. This was quickly changed to 'Hondamatic'. This gearbox was a separate unit and used ATF - Automatic Transmission Fluid.

The company's naming scheme is also confusing, as it is specific to a single model of the vehicle and some identifiers are reused.

2006 Honda Odyssey Transmission Slipping

The Honda Odyssey transmission failure problem began with the 1999 model. When Honda formally recognized the problem in 2004, they initially announced a 600,000 vehicle recall at an estimated cost of $153 million to the company. Honda later expanded the recall to include nearly 1.1 million vehicles.
A class action lawsuit was filed in 2006 claiming that Honda misled consumers by selling them vehicles with defective transmissions. Honda denied the charges and settled the case without admitting a defect.
The lawsuit settlement gave 1999-2001 Honda Odyssey owners an extended warranty on the transmission of 109,000 miles or 7 years and 9 months (whichever came first). This extended warranty is now no longer available to the Honda Odyssey owners since more than eight years has passed.
Many Honda Odyssey owners of 2007 and newer models are still reporting a vibration from their cars when driving between 20 and 45 mph. This issue was addressed in a 2009 Honda technical service bulletin and many were repaired under existing warranties. Today, the largest group of transmission complaints are for 1999-2004 Odysseys.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), consumers cited transmission-related problems with 2001-2004 Honda Odysseys more than five times more than they did for the Toyota Sienna, Chrysler Caravan, Grand Caravan, and Town and Country minivans during the same time period.
