Trans Fluid Question
I just bought my 2000 TL used. It;s on its second transmission with 60 K on it. I keep reading that the fluid should be drained an refilled to make sure the trans runs at top shape. How much does something like this cost? Can I do it myself being a novice?? Can I go anywhere to get it done??
Thanks for your help!

more experienced people will weigh in on this, but DO NOT put in anything other than the Honda/Acura ATF-Z1 fluid (a lot of shops will put in random generic fluid that is death for your transmission). changing the fluid yourself is pretty simple. DO NOT let anyone "flush" the transmission, drain and refill only.

The skill level of an engine oil change- even easier in some respects
Drain is marked ATF and so is the filler bolt
Buy a set of plastic car ramps and do your own services
