Tranny fuid change
So, im going to be doing my first tranny fluid change on the ep. I never really messed with it since i had my hatch.
Anyways, if im correct, instead of going from the passeanger side to get to the bolt like we normally would do to the previous civics, we go from the driver side considering the motor is position differently correct? Don't want to waste 5 min jacking up the wrong side and taking off the wrong wheel.
Stock jack FTL.

Re: Tranny fuid change (spintboy)
do you basically just jack it up and take the driver wheel off. then, remove the fill and drain plug. drain the fluid. put the drain plug back on. pump in the fluid and put the fill plug back on and you're done?

dude, I would be extremely careful if you are doing it with a stock jack stand / lift because it is very dangerous...
I helping out my friend work on his car and we used stock jack stands and it fell down. I guess because there was alot of movement as well.

ebrake up?
I have been jacking up my car with the stock jack for a long time now, but I have real jackstands that I use if I ever get near the bottom of the car. 3000 pound car on top of you=not so good.
