Configuration-specific service and fitment facts
These sourced values are shared by the specification sheet and the maintenance guides for this exact configuration.
- Manual transmission fluid
- Honda Manual Transmission Fluid Verified
- Manual transmission refill
- 1.6 US qt Verified
- Level and compatibility
- Use the specified fluid and the transmission-specific level-check procedure. Conventional ATF, belt-CVT fluid and manual gear oil are not interchangeable.
- Schedule applicability
- U.S. schedule. Use severe conditions when driving mainly on trips under 5 miles (under 10 miles in freezing weather), above 90°F/32°C, with extensive idling or stop-and-go driving, a roof rack or mountain roads, or muddy, dusty or de-iced roads. Occasional severe use follows normal conditions.
- Level and quantity
- Change quantity 1.5 L, distinct from 1.6 L total capacity. Check with warm transmission and level ground: fluid reaches the filler-hole edge. The manual clutch uses the brake-system fluid specification.
