I need to change my oil in the 5spd tranny. I wanted to know what oil is best for spirited driving (i will be doing autox as well). I heard good things about Redline oil but there are a few to choose from and I don't know wich one is best for me. RedLine

 

Best tranny oil is the OEM Honda stuff, which is just plan old Synthetic Mobil oil.

 

So can I pick it up at walmart? What mobil would it be?

 

Not sure. Just give the local dealer a call.

 

honda mtf at the dealer. i bought a case of 12 for like almost $4 a quart i think. but it's around there. $3-$4 a quart

 

yes, use the OEM stuff for sure. If you havent done it before, you will need 3 quarts oil, new drain plug washer, and a pump to get oil in the tranny. You can pick the pump up at your local checker auto part store for a few bucks.

 

thats odd... I read my shop manual and they said to just drain it and fill up until the oil spews out of the overfill hole. R u sure I need a pump for an 01 cord ?

 

pump would be for a tranny oil flush...?

 

hmm... how much is a flush at the dealers? ANyone know

 

pump as in pump the mtf through the fill hole with a tube
