Check the fluid level with the
transmission at normal operating
temperature and the vehicle
sitting on level ground. Remove
the transmission filler bolt, and
carefully feel inside the bolt hole
with your finger.

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

The fluid level should be up to the
edge of the bolt hole. If it is not, add
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 SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40
viscosity motor oil with the API
Certification seal that says ‘‘FOR
GASOLINE ENGINES’’ as a
temporary replacement. However,
motor oil does not contain the proper
additives, and continued use can
cause stiffer shifting. Replace as
soon as it is convenient.

If you are not sure how to check and
add fluid, contact your dealer.

Remove the check bolt and look for
transmission fluid coming out of the
bolt hole. If a small amount of fluid
drips out of the bolt hole, reinstall
the check bolt.
