Hi,
recently bought a civic 1.6sport ivtec. Car has been running smooth no engine issues at all. Recently iv been having problems with gear changes,the gear changes are really notchy,not all the time,just sometimes,like when im overtaking 1st and 2nd myt be fyn then it will "clunk"into third, or 1st will be fine then it will clunk into 2nd. I bought the car from a friend and he did tell me that the gearbox issue is common on these hondas and also that the gearbox would go after a few months and would need refurbishing.At the moment i dont have the money to pay for this reconditioning. What i have done is found some good quality gearbox oil as he said he has never changed the gearbox oil and the person who had it before him has never done it either. The problem is I cant find where to put the gearbox oil,i have downloaded some manuals but cant find where to put it. I have attatched a picture of the engine bay and circled the box where i think it goes into,thing is though the screw is really gone on this box and i need a special spanner to open it. I would appreciate if someone can give me a copy or a diagram where to put the gearbox oil. Also if you can point out where power steering fluid goes that would be helpful also
