Auto trans drain-and-fill newbie questions
#11
next time you do not have to jack up the car, you can get to the drain plug just by turning the wheel all the way to the right.
You did check the trans fluid level with the car sitting on level ground, right?

a) was my fluid originally overfilled? I'm thinking yes.
b) is 3 quarts to bring it up to the low end of the cross-hatching acceptable?

Are you planning on doing another drain and fill soon?
Typical procedure for a car with an unknown history is to do a D&F 3 times to ensure that the transmission is full of fresh Honda ATF.
From then on just one drain and fill per year is good.

Should I drive it for a while (i.e. a few days) and then D&F again or D&F immediately?

BTW - if you have a DollarTree near you they sell plastic pans for a buck each that work great for catching fluids.
I bought a stack of them and I use them to hold parts in as I am working on the car and to drain fluids. They slide right under the car without jacking it up.
