Anyone have experience with changing the at fluid? I just got this car and have so far changed the oil and filter, spark plugs and air filter. The at fluid is a bit dirty looking but does not smell burnt. I want to change it. I stopped to pick up a filter and gasket today and the shop sold me a screen type filter but did not have a listing for a gasket. I have yet to crawl under and look at it. Does anyone have info on this?

I am downloading the manual as I type this so will have a look at that as well.

Honda trannies don't use filters. The drain plug is usually magnetic so you will need to clean off any metal shavings that might be stuck on it. As for the location, it's on the side of the tranny (passenger side) and you should see a bolt with a square opening. Use a 3/8" drive (I think to remove it.
