Best Answer

Transmission filters are not usually cleaned. Rather, they are replaced. However, some transmissions forego a regular filter and simply use a pickup screen. In such a case, you'd remove the transmission's oil pan in order to get the screen. The screen usually then goes into a regular parts washer for cleaning and then gets reinstalled.

Is there a transmission filter in a 1992 Honda Accord 2.2?

If it's same as the 1993 (I believe it is) , there is NO filter. But the transmission oil drain bolt is magnetic and will have a good amount of metal shavings stuck to it. So when the transmission oil is changed, be sure to clean off the bolt.
