automatic and I can't find the stick
I need to put transmission fluid in the car

[lightbulblxi]

haha, i thought u were sayin u had a manual and couldnt find the shifter

[Neuspeed87lx]

it dosent look like the oil dipstick so dont look for something like that .... the dipstick screws into the trans case ..... its just a little plastic piece that unscrews .... its hard to explain

[chucknice]

well, if it unscrews , how do you check it without a dip stick? i thought you pured the fluid where the dip sticks goes??????????

[chucknice]

Exactly Where Is That Little Plastic Piece That Unscrews???

lol you guys are alot of help, look down to the right of your battery there should be a a cap that unscrews down by your transmission it is kinda hard to get to if you have big hands like i do

its under the metal hose peice shown to the right of the battery in this pic

just unsrew it and put a really long funnel in there and fill away

[HondaBoy]

its way the fuck down on the tranny housing! i've never touched the thing myself, probley should change the fluid. anyway, i always hated to think of reaching my arm down there.

Guys I think an automatic always has a dipstick. Should be around the passenger side of the car, since the tranny is there.

[Dallas&SarahsAccord]

the dipstick is on the bottom passenger side of the engine....look down there and you will see it...i couldnt find it either for the first 2 months i owned my car.

It un screws and there is a dip atached to the cap.

[joker2]

And it's not plastic!!! The stick is attached to the cap and it has lines at the bottom of it to tell you how much fluid is in the tranny.... To check the level, once you have filled the tranny a little, screw the stick back in until it stops and then unscrew it again to get a accurate reading.... Damn, I hate autos, I'm so glad I swaped mine out....

[johnwc723]

i cant imagine it should be THAT hard to find... the fulid is probably supposed to be able to be filled by your average car user (not somoene who knows anything about cars)

hahaha
I did too :D

[chucknice]

it was hard but i found it. i can't believe they put that little stick all the way down there between wires. i had to get the smallest guy that works with me to stick his little hands down and inbetween all that crap to find that cap!!!! tranny is gone anyway...
