Link to Transmission Fluid Change "How to"? can't find in search
Can someone post a link on "How to" change your transmission fluid?
I haven't been able to find it in the search engine, but I know this must have been discussed before. Something like Xviper's Oil Change 101 would be great.
Thanks

OK, perhaps I can just tell ya'll what I remember from when I did it two years ago.
1) Remove fill plug using 17mm socket.
2) Remove drain plug using 3/8 ratchet.
3) After all fluid has stopped draining, jack up the passenger side to help the remaining fluid drain out.
4) Lower the passenger side.
5) Reinsert the drain plug and tighten to the correct torque (I don't know what it is).
6) Jack up the drivers side and put both drivers side wheels on a block of wood.
7) Fill the transmission using Honda MTF.
8) Remove the blocks of wood and lower the drivers side back down.
9) After the overfilled fluid is done draining, reinsert the fill plug and tighten to the correct torque (I don't know what it is).
10) Remember that I forgot to put a pan under the car for the fluid to drain in to. Clean up the mess.
11) OK, I was kidding about (10), but I'd appreciate it if ya'll would let me know any details that I got wrong or left out.
