Additional Notes

  • The Honda Accord IV CB/CC automatic transaxle holds 6 liters at initial fill, a figure that reflects the total fluid volume required when the unit is dry, such as during a rebuild or complete replacement.
  • The service fill capacity across all listed configurations is 2.4 liters, which represents only the fluid displaced during a routine drain, since a standard drain does not evacuate the torque converter or all internal passages.
  • The gap between the 6-liter initial fill and the 2.4-liter service fill is substantial, meaning a routine fluid change replaces less than half of the total fluid volume held in the transaxle system.
  • Under normal use conditions, the 2.2 DX and LX trims carry a change interval of 24,000 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first, for the automatic transaxle fluid.
  • Under severe use conditions, the same 2.2 DX and LX trims require the 2.4-liter service fill to be performed at 12,000 miles or 12 months, cutting the normal interval in half.
  • The 2.2 EX trim spanning 1989-1991 shares the same 6-liter initial fill and 2.4-liter service fill as the DX and LX, with identical normal and severe change intervals of 24,000 and 12,000 miles respectively.
  • A separate EX specification entry covers 1991-1993, indicating a mid-generation distinction within the EX trim, though the capacity and interval values in that entry remain consistent with the earlier 1989-1991 EX figures.
