MTF flush write up?

Anyone have scans of the helms or procedures for an 03 CL-S 6spd transmission flush? I'm not doing it myself, but want to make sure that it is done properly by the shop I'm taking it to... since the nearest Acura dealer is 100+ miles away

I've never heard of flushing a manual tranny. Automatics benefit from flushing because a drain and fill leaves lots of fluid behind (in torque converter etc), but for a manual I'd think a drain and fill would be fine.

any way thats my 2cents.

Sorry, yeah, guess I should've said change... not flush

I'm more concerned with:

1. How much fluid should be used
2. Where the filler bolt is located

Thanks!

im pretty sure the bolt is located on the transmission. i believe it would be best to use honda mtf from the dealer. usually about 4 or 3-4 quarts or so bottles. first unbolt, flush out, refill, and then once you get a enough in there to where its full to the opening then put the bolt back in. im not 100% positive but this is usually how its done.
