Hey guys, I have a 94 civic ex auto.
I checked my tranny fluid and i was low, i also smelled it and it smelt burnt so i figure on draining it and refilling it with new fluid. My grand prix had a filter and gasket...does the civic have a tranny filter and gasket. I called pepboys and they said no...the dealership never picked up their phone. Does the civic have a tranny filter and gasket guys?
Thanks

I'm pretty sure no. I just regasketed a 93 motor and wanted to do the same, but according to cutaway pics of the tranny, there is only a screen in there, so I just refilled it.
I do know there is no pan, so changing the filter would be a PITA if there is one.

btw-it has 140k on it and i dont think it has ever...EVER had any service done on the tranny. sometimes when i take turns the rpms shoot up(since im still on the gas)im guessing the tranny is slipping. am i right...if i use Honda ATF, drain it and fill it...will this solve the problem?

oh and at 3k it goes into gear HARD
ive had it for 5k who knows how it was driven b4 me...

Actually I do think it has a filter, but it internal.

yep you would have to pull the trans and separate it thy don't even do that at the dealers we just swap trans if thy go bad. you can by an in line filter
