Transmission Fluid Check Plug-Loose Fit
im a new owner of a honda civic 1999. while checking the fluids, i noticed the transmission fluid plugin, is very loose and easily come off. Is it suppose to be this way. Should it be a snug fit

thanks

4-speed auto right? On my 97 it's like that too. It feels like it's just being held there by gravity. I've had the car since new in 1997 and it hasn't gone anywhere so it's fine.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
