Where the hell is the transmission fluid fill-bolt at?!
I can't find it for the life of me, and I NEED to change my tranny fluid today... Please help...
Is it under the starter or something?!

on my crx, i had to remove the passanger side wheel well plastic to access it. after you remove that, you will see the knob you have to turn to release it.

The actuall fill hole is under the starter, you must remove the starter to fill up the tranny.

no no no... if my memory serves me correct its not like a hex headed bolt... you actually just insert the rachet direclty into the head of the bolt... and why did you have to remove the axle??????

There is nothing wrong with a funnel and a long ass tube either.

Yeah, I finally found it using the Helms manual for the CRX, but that bitch is on there tight. I couldn't get it off for the life of me using an open-ended wrench, and I couldn't fit a ratchet in there, so I gave up for now. Which is okay, I bought a funnel with a long flexible acordian-type tube, but realized that the diameter of the tube end is too large for the fill hole, so I'll have to figure out a way to get at that bolt...
And yes, I got some Honda MTF for it.

thanks i have those, but they arent for the automatic version of the b16a.
the auto b16a was only in the integra rsi and xsi from other countries, never in a civic/crx.
