near where the passenger side axel in the tranny there is a bolt its half way up the diff think 17mm, take it out, put a small hose on the end of the funnel and fill untill oil start coming out, i use 10w30 pretty sure this is what honda recommends

honda mtf only.... and you will need a hand pump to transfer it in until it is level with the bottom of the fill plug, you will tell when it starts to run out

Hosepipe, funnel and honda MTF for me lads.

Always use teh 17mm filler hole for the reasons above in my opinion.

I lol'd at this at work and everybody looked at me funny.

But anywho, that green plug sensor thing on top of the tranny i put in two quarts of 10w30 Penzoil Platinum. It took it all. And I stripped the fill bolt on the bottom... its neeen removed from there. But now I have a problem that my gears wont go into gear now...
