Additional Notes

  • The Honda Civic V 1.5 DX (EG/EH/EJ) carries a 5.9-liter initial fill capacity for the automatic transaxle, a figure that reflects a full fluid charge from a dry or overhauled state, including the torque converter and all internal passages.
  • The service fill capacity for the 1.5 DX automatic transaxle is 2.7 liters, which represents only the fluid drained during a standard pan drain procedure, leaving residual fluid in the torque converter and valve body untouched.
  • The gap between the 5.9-liter initial fill and the 2.7-liter service fill means a routine drain-and-fill replaces roughly 46 percent of the total fluid volume, a characteristic of automatic transaxles without a dedicated drain plug on the torque converter.
  • Under normal use conditions, the automatic transaxle fluid change interval for the 1.5 DX is set at 30,000 miles or 24 months, whichever comes first, applying the 2.7-liter service fill quantity at each interval.
