How much transmission fluid do I need?

Hey all. I have a 2002 Civic EX (MT) and I'd like to replace the transmission fluid since I think it's been a while since that was done. Does anyone happen to know how many quarts I need?

I couldn't find anything in my owners manual. Any help is greatly appreciated!

there must be scale on dipstick. Be sure you park your car on flat surface

MMMM not sure for civics. I'd check the dip stick like he said. For supras theres a drain bolt and a fill bolt. You fill it up till it trickles out the side of the fill bolt and close her up.

Auto's have a dipstick but not MT. AUS-ES1 is right- appx 1.6L. Its just drain and fill- follow the diy's on the site. Best advice I found when I did mine was crack the fill plug first before the drain plug in case u drain the fluid then find out the fill plug is jacked, and make sure u keep the car level.

Its like 2 and a half quarts you cant over fill the manual just fill it until it comes out and your good. But i will suggest you get the factory honda fluid. We have had cars come in with trans noises from having it changed with other companies fluid
