There are two ways. One you can drop the trans. pan and remove filter and replace. That's the cheapest. You will replace about 5 to 6 qts. of fluid. The other is to have a repair shop that has a machine that flushes the complete system and then replace the filter. Lots more money but system will be completely done. Good luck.
Add it in the transmission dip stick tube.
Its in the transmission
It usually means that the internal seals and the valve body parts are getting worn and stiff. You might be able to get a little more life from the transmission by adding transmission conditioner to the fluid. Try something like "Trans-X", but understand that whatever you do, the transmission is about ready to leave you stranded.
The automatic transmission will have a dip stick location on a 1982 Honda Civic. Pull the dip stick to see the color and texture of the fluid.
Yes but you may have to shorten the drive shaft if it is a 350 turbo going to a non electronic 700r4
Many of todays vehicles do not have drain plugs. You have to remove the pan to change the filter and fluid.
You can use ATF (automatic transmission fluid)
Buy a rebuilt transmission and install it.
Transmission fluid can be slowly added to the same place as the dipstick. Transmission diagrams can be found online, in web forums or in car repair books.
My 1982 C10 Custom Deluxe holds 3 and a half quarts of transmission fluid.
The automatic transmission fluid level on a 1982 Mercedes 230TE is checked by allowing the vehicle to reach operating temperature and removing the dipstick. The fluid should reach the hot mark and if not, fluid added as needed.
