Hi can anyone tell us exactly what we should do to do maintenance on my sons hondo ex 2002 transmission. Are there filters, is there a magnet, do you need to flush the system if so how and with what.

He is telling me that he has heard so many different opinions about what to do he is very confused. Please help, this is his first car and he just did the oil change and rotated his tires, i must say i am very proud of him for taking this on i never showed him how to do it and he did a great job.

Please if anyone can give us some good detail we would both appreciate it.

No filter, Magnet on the drain plug. Only use Honda ATFZ1 fluid, drain and refill is 2.9 Qts required. No flush. Get a new style ATF dipstick they fit much tighter than the old ones.

^do that if auto

if manual just drain and fill 1.6 quarts of honda MTF get a small funnel and fill through the reverse light switch on top of the trans it is a lot easier than trying to use the fill plug on the side just make sure to measure out how much your putting in if you go in through the top
