Honda Civic 1.5T CVT Transmission Valve Body 27000-5X9-014

This is a complete replacement valve body assembly for the Honda CVT used behind the 1.5L turbo in the 2016-2024 Civic and the 2017-2024 CR-V (1.5T and 2.4L), and the 2023-2025 Accord 1.5T. It replaces Honda part numbers 27000-5X9-014 and 27000-5X9-004, and supersedes 27000-5LJ-014, 27000-5LJ-024 and 27000-5LJ-034. It comes as an assembly with the solenoids and harness connectors already mounted, so you are not swapping solenoids over from the old unit.

The valve body is what sets pulley clamping pressure and ratio on these CVTs. When a bore wears or a linear solenoid starts to stick, the car shudders or judders under light throttle, slips or flares when you get into it, feels slow to engage into Drive or Reverse, and often sets pressure or solenoid codes such as P0746, P0776, P0962-P0966 or P2801-P2806 before the TCM drops it into a fail-safe mode. If the fluid is clean and the belt and pulleys are not damaged, replacing the valve body is the repair that addresses those faults without pulling the transmission.

On the bench: drain the CVT fluid, remove the side cover and the connectors, then remove the valve body bolts and note their lengths and locations before lifting the old unit off. Clean the mating surfaces, confirm any separator plate and screen seat correctly, and torque the new valve body in sequence to Honda spec. Refill with Honda HCF-2 CVT fluid, then check level at temperature.

Match your part number before ordering: check the number on your old valve body or run your VIN through a Honda parts catalog. After installation, plan on running the CVT relearn (pulley and clutch pressure learn) with a Honda-capable scan tool so the TCM adapts to the new solenoids; skipping it can leave a harsh engagement or a lingering shudder.
