Where are the drain plug and filler located? Any special tricks I need to know? I searched the forum, but had no luck finding this stuff. Thanks in advance.

I used an old beer bong for the refill, it is a pretty easy fluid to change though, loosen bottom plug, drain, close bottom plug, open top plug, fill let excess ( if any) leak out top hole, close top hole.Comment

I haven't been able to find much regarding a manual transmission fluid change either. Tried various words in the search function.. I get either nothing or 500 posts.. Hmmmm Grrrr...

Like they said...use some of that Honda MTF, I hear it is the best for the manual tranny. The Haynes says you can use engine oil, like 10w20 I can't remember exactly. I filled mine with engine oil and it shifted like butter.

i filled mine with 10w-30 motor oil. Shifts fine for me. But whatever you prefer

Just use regular engine oil, there's no need to buy expensive Honda MTF. 10w30 is the proper oil, IIRC.- Ghosty

the drain plug is a bolt that a 3/8 rachet fits on (with no sized socket just the rachet itself), it looks like a bolt with a square. it has a crush washer, make sure you change it. the fill bolt is about 6-8 inches above the drain bolt, more closer to the top of the tranny. it is a 17mm, it too has a crush washer, it wouldn't hurt to replace that one too.
to change the fluid, undo the drain bolt and the filler bolt and let the fluid drain out. put the drain bolt back in. insert a funnel with a rubber hose on it into the hole and fill until fluid runs out of the fill hole (approx 2 quarts).
then install the the filler bolt. make sure you don't over tighen the bolts, remember the tranny case is aluminum and is softer then the steel bolt you are putting in. make it snug, start it up and check for leaks. later.Comment
