Has anyone canged there TRANY oil on there car. How often is it recomended? I have a jdm b16 and wanted to put fresh oil.

 

"Honda recommends the manual transaxle fluid be changed every 30k miles. Use 10W-40 motor oil with an SG or better rating."

This is taken directly from my Chiltons service manual for 84-95 civic/del sol.

 

i'd use a honda mtf or redline

 

I can't find my drain hole , my buddy told me it's hard to do, f#$k I do everything else but that, has anyone done it?

 

Do you know how to do it I can't find the drain hole or plug.

 

The drain plug is on the lower side.. it's an large hex-head plug on the underside of the tranny. You'll probably have to jack the car up to get to it. You'll also need a little funnel with a rubber hose attached to the end to refill it, unless you like getting tranny fluid all over the place. It's not that hard, just takes time... pour, wait, pour some more, wait... keep pouring until some starts to dribble out of the filler hole on the side of the tranny.

I changed my tranny fluid about 15k miles ago when I rebuilt my CV joints and used 10W-40 like the Chilton's manual recommends. Haven't had any trouble at all with it, but when I do it again I'll probably use honda's MTF or Redline like Rspool says.
