changing transmission oil 2006 - Honda Pilot

hkuendig · 03-09-2010, 09:05 PM

Hi,

Anyone know where you put the new transmission oil back in for a 2006 Pilot? I know where you take it out, but that can't be where you put it back in, which is what the instructions suggest on a PDF file I have.

Anyone know?

I just did mine w/in the last month. The transmission fluid fill bolt is on the back side of the engine on the right (assuming you are facing the front of the vehicle). It's a bolt that's about the same size as the drain plug and it has ATF stamped on it. Mine was kind of hard to see since it was dirty but its there. You will need approx 18" wratchet extension to take the bolt out.

Filling through the dipstick tube is the easy way. IMO

Out of curiosity can someone post a pic of the fill bolt.
