I've got a CL-S 6spd and planning to change the fluid in the tranny as shifts aren't as good as they used to be. I know there used to be a "how-to" post on this forum, but I've searched for an hour and can't find it. I've read all the posts and know to use the Honda/Acura MT fluid, but I have a couple other questions:

1. How much fluid does the manual tranny take?
2. Where is the drain plug?
3. Where is the fill plug?
4. Is there a vent plug to open when draining?

Any pics or step by step would be much appreciated. If someone has the old link, that would be just as good also.

Thanks!

Thanks sirsig.....that's what I needed. Do you like the synchromesh....I've read good and bad about it on the board. Was planning to just go with the regular stuff from the dealer.

Appreciate the post and pics.....thx.

One more question - how much fluid did you need to do the complete drain and refill? I figure somewhere between 2 and 3 qts...am I correct? Thx.

If your going to be doing stuff like this you should really spend the $80 & get a service manual.
