where to fill up ATF ?
My car is an auto, I am thinking to flush and replace the ATF.
I've found the Dipstick, but can you guys tell me where can I Fill the ATF from ?
Also for my car is the drain hole right under the dipstick ?
Thx for the help.

You fill it up from the dipstick hole
Not sure what car you have....
I have a 94 accord
The drain plug is under the tranny (points towards the passenger front tire)
Its the only bolt that you dont need a socket to loosen.....It has a square hole that you use w/ a ratchet (no socket) to remove.
Btw if you use the search function you wouldnt have to wait for a response.

no filter
use a funnel
let it drain for as long as possible....when i did mine i jacked up the drivers side so the fluid drained toward the opening (passenger side)...
and the plug is magnetic (stock) unlike the oil plug....make sure you wipe off the excess gunk

Re: where to fill up ATF ? (iam7head)
I thought it was going to break when i was trying to take mine off....
So I got the torque wrench out.....actually made a crack sound when it finally started to loosen up.....freaked the sh*t out of me!
It's not something you want to break.....good thing with the whole "no socket needed deal"=you cant really strip it! (I hope)

for the newer accords, like 98-02, the atf refill is not through the dipstick (V6). There is a bolt you have to remove, its behind the dipstick, kinda down a little
