NEVER, NEVER work under a vehicle with just a jack as support.......unless you want to DIE!!
Car ramps would have been MUCH safer!
ALWAYS undo the FILL plug FIRST......if you undo the drain plug and drain the fluid but you cant undo the FILL plug you're in trouble!

correct. This is a zero cost way: ruclips.net/video/KwJRQKDszyo/видео.html

umm you pointed to the clutch fluid resevoir in the first couple of mins
anyways my shifting from 1st to second is a bit sticky would a transmission fluid change help that?

[@GeniusAsian]

if it is dirty you need to change and see if it helps. It may or may not solve your problem though.

That's exactly same color as my Accord. Thank you for an informative video.

[@GeniusAsian]

Glad it was helpful!

[@6xygoose]

ever do the clutch fluid?

[@GeniusAsian]

You can't have fluid for the clutch because the material on the clutch plate is similar to the brake pads, and friction is necessary to transfer the rotating energy through the transmission to the drive system.

[@PMitchell106]

corgLLC
The clutch is hydraulically operated by the clutch fluid just as the brakes are hydraulically operated by the brake fluid, you use DOT4 brake fluid in the hydraulic system for the clutch.

[@PMitchell106]

The clutch fluid should be changed when you change the brake fluid, every 2-3 years regardless of mileage. You can vacuum the clutch fluid out of the bleeder on the slave cylinder, which is right in the front of the transmission on the 2.4L, and can be easily accessed from under the hood or under the car. You will need to pull several reservoirs of fresh fluid through the system, as the clutch master cylinder reservoir is much smaller than the brake master cylinder reservoir.
