According to this picture, where do we pour the new transmission oil in?



And does anyone know if those commerical transmission oil leak stopper actually works?

 

jack your car up and take your passenger side wheel off. then take off the plastic inner fender. on the side of the tranny you will see two caps with square cutouts for a 3/8" ratchet or extension.

The lower plug is to drain and the top one is to fill. A HELMS or HAYNES manual will help. as will the RED SEARCH button

 

do you have an auto or manual tranny? It's different for each.

Do above for a manual tranny.

For an auto tranny... fill at the tranny dipstick.

You don't have to remove the fender lining.

He should look in the owner's manual, it's listed in that

 

i dont have the owners manual, and ive already read haynes service repair manual and could not find where you would put the il in for an automatic.

I have an automatic transmission. So i just pour the oil into the dipstick (the one that measures the transmission oil) area?

yep, remove the dipstick and place a small skinny funnel in there and pour the fluid in through that.

yes you will see the trnas fluid dipstick on the front pass side on the comparment...just put the transmission fluid in there

 

alright thanks guys.

 

since your car is auto, do what the others suggested with the funnel

and any stop leak is temporary with transaxle seals, you need to find the leak and repair it. most common place for auto trans to leak is cooler lines, followed by tq converter seal. Honda does not have a pan so it usually does not leak from the case..........
