Hi Scotty, Big Fan of yours - all your videos are great. I have a 2019 Honda Fit LX and I want to do a complete CVT service (both filters, cooler O-rings pan gasket etc.). I went to the Dealer to get a parts list (over $250.00 for just the parts... will be getting the parts from Rock Auto) and the parts guy said most of the parts will need to be ordered as they do not stock them.... then the parts guy told me when you bring your car in for a CVT service - they only do a drain and fill - they don't replace filters? I find that very odd as filters get dirty and need to be replaced. I did a drain and fill at 30K miles but now the car has approx. 55K and I figured it is time to do a complete service and I have heard there are issues with CVT transmissions... when you don't maintain them correctly? Just wanted to get your thoughts on this?

Drain and fill @ 30K was fine. A complete transmission service should include a fluid and filter change along with a good cleaning of the pan. Make sure you only use Honda genuine CVT fluid, Honda's have finicky transmissions.
@hixster thank you so much for the information Hixster - very much appreciated. My plan is to do this complete CVT service at 55K miles. And I agree 100% - I only use the Honda genuine HCF-2 fluid.
