Transmission Oil, Brake and Clutch Fluid
Brake and Clutch Fluid
Check the fluid level in the
reservoirs monthly. There are up
to three reservoirs, depending on
which model. They are:
Brake fluid reservoir (all
models)
Clutch fluid reservoir (5-speed
manual transmission only)
ABS reservoir for cars with
ABS option
The brake fluid in the brake and
anti-lock brake systems should
be replaced every 3 years or
45,000 miles (72,000 km),
whichever comes first.
Brake System
The fluid level should be
between the MIN and MAX marks
on the side of the reservoir. If the
level is at or below the MIN mark,
your brake system needs
attention. Have the brake system
inspected for leaks or worn
brake pads.
MAX
MIN
If you add brake fluid to bring it
up to the MAX mark, use Genuine
Honda Brake Fluid or an
equivalent from a sealed
container that is marked DOT 3
or DOT 4 only. Brake fluid
marked DOT 5 is not compatible
with your car's braking system.
