Gear oil

[BoNZeL]

just wondering guys if you can help me to find out what is the gear oil capacity for Honda civic 03 and if you could guide me how to change transmission oil...? Thankz!

There should be a drain bolt at the bottom of the transmission...

Remove that to drain...

And refill through the dipstick or something.... and well use the dipstick to see when its full

Would be different if his is Auto

[teh_mechanic]

yeah,different if its an auto.drain from the drain plug in the auto.refill through the dipstick tube until you get a reading around the bottom of the dipstick (will probably be about 3 litres or so but I've never worked on one so don't quote me on that).Then run the car through park,reverse,and drive(if it's on a jack with jackstands or a hoist go through 1st 2nd 3rd etc) then with the car running and in park fill the fluid to the cold mark on the dipstick.go for a short drive then recheck the level.If you want to know how much Auto Trans Fluid to buy I'd say about 5 litres then you have some left for later on

its a manual actually, i forgot to tell you at the first place, at the moment i havent checked where can i find the dipstick section.. but i think i found where to drain it... it has to be opened by an allen key... a big one.. thankz for the replied guys... i appreciated all those helps... if i could get any direction that would be a good help. im only trying to fix my car on my own.. cant trust the mechanicz... hehehe!

Manuals don't have dipsticks

[teh_mechanic]

very easy dude, the top bolts is on top of the gearbox, refill one, and the bottom is the outlets, so just unbolts them two.
