Put the car up on jack stands. The trans oil pan is behind the cross member. The trans pan is a flat irregular pan held on with about 24 bolts. I usually leave a few in on one side of the pan so that you can drain the oil into a catcher insted of wearing it. Then remove the pan, clean with varsol, there is a magnet inside that will have lots of sludge on it, be sure to get that clean. Then pull out the filter, it has a long pipe the goes up into the trans with a rubber o-ring. Make sure you get that out too, the new filter should have a new rubber and you don't want 2 up there. Replace filter, install new pan gasket, torque the pan bolts so as not to over tighten them (very important not to strip them) Nand very important not to use silicone on pan gasket. Silicone and auto trans don't mix. Then drop the vehicle, pull the dipstick tube, look in the owners manual for the number of litres or quarts and pour in slowly so as not to trap air during pouring and spill all over the engine. Probably gonna take 5 or 6 litres, but only a guess.

How do you replace the transmission fluid in a 1993 Mazda 929?

I have a 1993 929. My husband just changed the transmission fluid in it. He said you have to completely drop the transmission and make sure the you replace the filter also. Then put the transmission back up and fill it with fluid. Mine took app. 6 quarts. ,Jennifer Actually you do not have to remove the transmission, their should be a drain plug on the side of the transmission pan, if not you can loosen the transmission pan, which should have between 8 to 12 bolts on, you can change your tranny fluid, and filter from there and replace a new gasket. No need in dropping your transmission. Your getting into more head ache than you need. I Jennifer.

How do you change the automatic transmission filter on a 1993 Honda Accord?

You don't. Most Honda transmission have a non-serviceable filter that is located inside the transmission. The transmission must be disassembled to get at the filter. It is designed to last the life of the transmission. By the time the filter is clogged, the transmission needs overhauling.
