5 speed manual fluid type

[sturgis]

This has probably been asked but "Search" won't seem to work for me.

5 speed noisy in my 93 delSol. Don't know if ever serviced. Wish to drain and re-fill.

Could someone please provide fluid type and capacity?

Thank you in advance, Sturgis

I changed the fluid in my 94 DX. It took 10W30 motor oil. I think alot of hondas use that in the manual trans. But best to look it up to be sure.

There is Honda MTF and you can use 10w30 oil. I think the capacity is like 2.5qts or somewhere around there.

Unless the fluid is VERY low, changing it will not fix a noise, the damage has already been done. A lot of people seem to think gear lube(75w-90) helps, all it does is cover the nosie & make things worse over time.

Manual is about 2 qts

Honda MTF is recommended but, like posted above you can use 10w-30 engine oil, I'd go with 10w-40(max) in your case due to the noise.

On honda manual ones, just fill it until it can't hold anymore. On automatics you need to measure.

cool, anyone know where you can pick up the body clips that hold the doors on? Can I just go down to auto zone or pep boys. Those damn things always strip/break or get lost.
