On the passenger side, there is a circle with a square in it, where you will put a 3/8 inch drive wrench. Use an extension so you can get leverage from outside the wheel well. Turn counter-clockwise and fluid will pour out, catch in an approved oil container and recycle it.
Clean metal shavings off magnetic drain plug, reattach. I do not know the torque setting off hand.
Manual transmission: Remove the Vehicle Speed Sensor and fill 1.9 quarts (some transmissions vary, research this for your particular transmission) of transmission fluid of choice. (Honda OEM, Redline, GM Synchromesh, 10W-30)
Automatic transmission: Remove dipstick and get long-necked funnel. Pour in 2.7 quarts of transmission fluid of choice. (Honda OEM, Valvoline, ...)
Reattach vehicle speed sensor [M/T], or reinsert dipstick [A/T] and go through the gears without moving the car. Drive away.
Note: This is the "drain and fill" method as opposed to "flush" as the thread title states. A full "flush" will have to be done professionally with heavy equipment, but I assume drain/fill is what you mean.
