How to change manual transmission oil- (88-91 civic/crx)

[@Magic_sk8board_media]

Still relevant. 1990 crx... Thanks bro.

[@kng5063]

Thanks man, I needed to learn this

[@oldskool1979]

Did this today on my 1990 crx.. it was very clean not black like yours ! I use 10w30 motor oil 1.8 L

[@VincentStevenson]

Thank you!

[@jamalasa9007]

Good video. That is some dirty oil. Must have lot of miles on that oil. Mine has never looked like that. Looks like you refilled with regular 10W-30.

[@jamalasa9007]

@IfYouDisagreeYouAreWrong My 91 Accord also specifies 10W30....but I use Honda MTF and the difference is noticible in the shift knob.

@@jamalasa9007 If I use regular oil do I use synthetic

My fill plug is seized... what's the best way to brake that 17MM bolt loose?? The head is pretty well rounded out...... so cant even use a extraction socket.............ouch......................

Thanks g, need to change mine on my Civic sedan

[@SABRECRAFT]

would it be a good idea to try to flush it with a quart or so?

[@conker33350]

I dont think so. Hell now a days they generally say its better to not even change the tranny fluid sometimes. The fluid used now is a hydrolic fluid while engine oil is a lubricant. They changed it because apparently transmissions didn't last as long when using engine oil. Although it would have been way more convienent I would have loved to know generally the longevity difference between using both fluids. I know this is more information than asked but hope it helped.

Nice review.

[@jayman2261]

Do you still have the CRX in 2022??

[@Magic_sk8board_media]

I'm trying to find that intake now! lol

[@g35tho11]

I lost a little oil when I switch my axle should add more ??

[@Kanjo_Kazooie]

You should, That’s what happened to me too but I never added some and I think I have a really small leak so now my third gear grinds. 2 quarts is kinda a little so I can imagine loosing a lil would matter. Im doing a flush and fill right now hopefully it stops grinding 🤞

[@senangselalu6273]

2 litre oil ? or more ?in transmission

[@bigdag5979]

Is the oil engine oil?

[@colehall2130]

yes. I have a 1991 civic dx and the manual says it take 10w-30 Engine oil

[@nimus5491]

But it’s better to use Honda mtf fluid

[@MarlzJinx]

​@nimus5491 if the owners manual says 10w30, Ima use 10w30. Honda mtf seems like a gimmick

[@Noisy_Boys]

well, dont put a b16a in a crx, the subframe is blocking the fill hole, this should be interesting

[@psychspsycho4795]

That does not look like Honda Transmission fluid ...looks like engine oil should be reddish purple

[@pizzafatboy]

This is a manual transmission, not automatic.
