Fluid
Check the fluid level with
the
transmission at normal operating
temperature and the car sitting on
level ground. 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.

Maintenance
If
Honda MTF is not available, you
may use an
API service
SG,
SH
or
SJ
grade motor
oil
with a viscosity
of
SAE
lOW-30
or
lOW-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
convenient.
The
transmission should be drained
and refilled with new fluid according
to the time and distance recommen-
dations
in
the maintenance schedule.
