Hey I don't know where the transmission dip stick is in my 87 accord, it has made me crazy. I spent like an hour searching for it and can't find it. I even looked in the owner's manual and still can't get my hands on it.

 

ive never heard of a transmission dipstick!? had no idea there was such a thing

 

Well I don't know if its called "dip stick" for the tranny, but the measuring stick for the tranny fluid.

 

Hi new member..Welcome to the forums..
My trans dip stick (etc) is located in the front of my motor on the drivers side above the transmission, look for yours there. I'ts just a short little stick..

HAHAHAHAHAHA omg you're funny dude!! spent an hour?? Are you sure its an automatic transmission?

 

Yes I know it's an automatic. I'm sure that I will find it one day.

 

On my '87 it is on the front pass side of the transmission approx eight inches DIRECTLY BELOW where the four spark plug wires plug into the distributor. It helps to use a light. It is a screw-on plug similar to those on a power mower crankcase. It is not east to access and when you find it - use care screwing it back on so as not to cross thread it. If you need to add fluid - Wally World sells a long funnel with a narrow tube, (3/8") that will help.

 

how about you stop at local garage and ask someone to check the transmission fluid?

the dispstick on 87 didnt have the plastic orange clip on top = you're looking for a steel thin (probably rusted) small loop.


P.S. you have a lot of catching up to do , dude!!

 

i agree with alekat...it should be in near the radiator on the drivers side....cant someone take a picture and put it up on here for him?

 

Ok here's where the owners manual says the transmission dipstick should be, if you see it just copy the image and circle it I guess and reload it.
