Look in your owner's manual in the chapter regarding do it yourself maintenance operations and you will find some text and illustration on how to check the unique Honda trans dipstick. It unthreads from the case kind of like a gas cap and has a small dipstick attached. If you determine that the level is low, top off using only Honda ATF -- or just go ahead and drain/fill the transaxle. Do not use Dexron III as shift quality will become harsh. To answer your other question, yes it does sound serious, but eliminate the simple first before panicking. Toyota MDT in MO |
