What the transmission plug looked like when it was first removed and cleaned off.
This is the drain port. It is located on the bottom of the transmission on the driver's side. The square of a 3/8" socket is needed to remove and reinstall the plug.
Transmission fill port. This Pilot has had the transmission recall done. Honda replaced the fill port bolt with a fluid pick-up. The blue painted bolt needs to be removed (12mm) so the pick-up can be removed. A funnel with a long tube is needed to fill the transmission without making a massive mess.
