Default Question on tranny fluid.. 92 civic.

92 civic dx, auto tranny. I changed the tranny fluid myself about 2 months ago after I read how to do it thanks to honda-tech.com

Here is my question. When I changed it I bought 2 quarts and filled. I told a friend this the other day and he said that my tranny holds like 2.7-2.9 quarts and that I should fill her up.

Is that true? Should I go back out and fill through the dipstick another .7 quarts or so?

Thanks!

I'm looking at the 1992 Civic Owner's manual and it says 3.0 US quarts for the auto tranny.

I would add more if I were you.

holy ****.

Well the car did have extremely dirty tranny fluid when I changed it at like 89k or so(original motor) before I changed it the tranny would knock into gear a bit, after I changed it it almost completely went away, now every now and then I will recognize it, going uphill it usually happens.

Another Quart it is!

What does everyone else think?

Just for reference, My 98 repair manual says 2.9 QT.
Id ad a bit more, Just check the dipstick as you do.

My '92-'95 repair manual says the same.
