Oil Change Interval - Manual Trans.
 
Anybody know what the transmission oil change interval is for the '99 Civic?
I looked in my owner's manual and can only find it specified for automatic
transmissions.

The (free) owner's link maintenance schedule accessible via
http://automobiles.honda.com/ says it's 90k miles/6 years,
whichever comes first, for your 99 Civic's manual
transmission oil.

For my '97 Civic, I believe it's every 30,000 miles. This is for the manual
transmission. It is extremely easy to do. Honda recommends using their
fluid. I noticed a big difference in shifting when I changed mine at 100K.
Probably the first it had been done (I bought it used). You should replace
the crush washers. The lower one is the same size as the oil drain plug.
The upper one is larger and probably doesn't really need to be changed.

I'll second the vote for replacing it every 30K however I like to replace
both washers.

I gotta ask. Why?

I have never changed oil in a manual transmission and I have never
had a problem in over, ah?, 250,000 miles.

It doesn't wear out.
It shouldn't get "dirty."
