Transmission Fluid
Check the fluid level with the
transmission at normal operating
temperature and the car sitting on
the level ground.
Remove the black cover under the
engine.
Remove the transmission filler bolt
and carefully feel inside the bolt hole
with your finger. The fluid level
should be up to the edge of the bolt
hole. If it is not, add Genuine Honda
Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF)
until it starts to run out of the hole.
Reinstall the filler bolt and tighten it
securely.
If Honda MTF is not available, you
may use an API service SG, SH or SJ
grade motor oil with a viscosity of
SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 as a
temporary replacement. An SG
grade is preferred, but an SH or SJ
grade may be used if SG is not
available. However, motor oil does
not contain the proper additives and
continued use can cause stiffer
shifting. Replace as soon as it is
convenient.
The transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid according
to the time and distance recommen-
dations in the maintenance schedule.
