i just drained my transmission, i just used a ratchet and it all spewed out. it spews out pretty far if you're on a lift. so make sure you got some coverage.

i did it in my garage, jacked it up, loosened it, pt it back down and level, took it off. let it drain, back on, 2 quarts, both bolts back on with fresh washers, torques tight 33 and 29 i believe, i dont think it matters too much

Re: (civiceg94)
there are 2 bolts on the side of the tranny, look at the pic above for reference, one is a 17mm bolt and the other has a square shape that you stick a 3/8 drive in. the 17 mm bolt is your filler. fill the trans through the top bolt (17 mm on the side) till it drips out. the fluid should only fill to that bolt. when done. plug it. make sure you use fresh washers from honda, each or diff sizes. and make sure the car is lever when doing this.
