  1. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature (the radiator fan comes on), and turn the engine off.
  2. Raise the vehicle on a lift, or apply the parking brake, block both rear wheels, and raise the front of the vehicle. Make sure it is securely supported.
  3. Remove the engine undercover (see «ENGINE UNDERCOVER REPLACEMENT»(ref-360102-S28217707452010042600000) ).
  4. Remove the ATF filler bolt and drain plug (A), and drain the automatic transmission fluid (ATF). NOTE: If a cooler cleaning is necessary, refer to «ATF COOLER CLEANING»(ref-360064-S02044207662010042600000) .
  5. Reinstall the drain plug with a new sealing washer (B).
  6. Refill the transmission with the recommended fluid through the filler hole (A). Always use Honda ATF-DW-1 Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF). Using a non-Honda ATF can affect shift quality.
