My sons Honda Passport just barely made it up our driveway last night. My hubby not sure how to check transmission fluid. How do you check the transmission fluid on this vehicle and what type of transmission fluid should be used?|||is the car a manual or an automatic transmission? if it is an automatic transmission there will be a dipstick to check the transmission fluid level. the transmission uses Dextron IIE fluid. There may be a later version that is compatible. that fluid should be available at any parts store.
if its a manual trans, the fluid is checked by taking a blind plug out of the side of the transmission. the fluid should be level with the top of the plug hole.
hope that helps|||If is a automatic trans and u can't find a dipstick look at trans oil pan. If u see two 19mm drain plugs (bolts) it's a little different. Some of the Honda passport's have no dipstick they have two plugs on the trans oil pan. The lower one to drain the fluid and the upper one fill or add fluid. With the vehicle on a level surface turn the engine on a let it idle for at least 3 minutes. Please use the parking brake and block the wheels. After the engine idle for 3 minutes with the engine running remove the upper drain plug if no fluid comes out add DEXRON-III fluid until the fluid flows out over the screw opening. Reinstall the plug and cleaned are. Than u will need a scan tool, if the fluid level is good the fluid temperature should be between 90 and 135 F degrees . This is only if u have no dipstick and if this passport has this type of trans. Good luck !
