How to flush 2001 Honda civic automatic transmission fluid?

One way is drop the pan for the transmission. But that will only take out a bit of the fluid about half. You will need a machine to get all the fluid out of the lines. If its something your worried about the cost just buy the fluid just buy it somewhere else like parts source or any other parts supplier. They will charge you a hour to do it at a dealer which is a lot cheaper than replace parts if you dont put enough fluid back into the transmission.

you can flush if you wish, but at a cost.

MTF (Manual trans fluid) or ATF (Automatic trans fluid). In each case approx 3 Litres is required to fill the transmission costing about £40

On a manual transmission there should be a flush plug that will directly accept a1/2" ratchet less the socket. Remove this to check manual transmission fluid and to add it. This plug can usually be found on the passenger side of the transmission just being the tire.
