ATF Replacement

NOTE: Keep all foreign particles out of the transmission.

1. Bring the transmission up to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on).

1. Park the vehicle on level ground, and turn the engine off.

1. Remove the drain plug (A), and drain the automatic transmission fluid (ATF). Then reinstall the drain plug with a new sealing washer (B).

1. Remove the dipstick, and refill transmission with the recommended fluid amount through the opening of the dipstick guide pipe until the level reaches the upper mark on the dipstick. Always use genuine Honda ATF-Z1 automatic transmission fluid (ATF). Using a non-Honda ATF can affect shift quality.

   Automatic Transmission Fluid Capacity:
   2.8 L (3.0 US qt, 2.5 lmp qt) at change
   6.5 L (6.9 US qt, 5.7 lmp qt) at overhaul

1. Insert the dipstick (A) into the dipstick guide pipe aligning the cap (B) with the guide tab (C).
