Wheel Lift Equipment
This is an acceptable way of towing the
vehicle.
Sling-type Equipment
This method of towing
the vehicle is unacceptable.
Manual Transmission
Automatic Transmission
1-13
The tow truck uses two
pivoting arms that go under the tires (front or rear) and
lift them off the ground. The other two wheels remain
on the ground.
The tow truck uses metal
cables with hooks on the ends. These hooks go around
parts of the frame or the suspension, and the cables lift
that end of the vehicle off the ground. The vehicle’s
suspension and body can be seriously damaged if this
method of towing is attempted.
If the vehicle cannot be transported by a flat-bed, it
should be towed with the front wheels off the ground. If
the vehicle is damaged, and must be towed with the
front wheels on the ground, or with all four wheels on
the ground, do this:
 Release the parking brake.
 Shift the transmission to neutral.
 Leave the ignition switch in ACCESSORY (I) so the steering wheel does not lock.
 Make sure all accessories are turned off to minimize current battery draw.
 Release the parking brake.
 Start the engine.
 Shift to D, then to N.
 Turn off the engine.
 Leave the ignition switch in ACCESSORY (I) so the steering wheel does not lock.
 Make sure all accessories are turned off to minimize current battery draw.
It is best to tow the vehicle no farther than 80 km
(50 miles), and keep the speed below 55 km/h (35 mph).  Improper towing preparation will damage the
transmission. Follow the above procedure exactly. If
you cannot shift the transmission or start the engine
(automatic transmission), the vehicle must be
transported on a flat-bed.
 Trying to lift or tow the vehicle by the bumpers will cause serious damage. The bumpers are not
designed to support the vehicle’s weight.

Application Lubricant or Fluid
3-2Lubricants and Fluids
API CERTIFICATION SEAL
For details of the lubrication points and the type of lubricants to be applied, refer to the illustrated index and the various work procedures (such
as Assembly/Reassembly, Replacement, Overhaul, Installation, etc.) contained in each section.


A Engine Acura Motor Oil:
K20Z2: P/N CA66808 (5W-20)
K20Z3: P/N CA66807 (5W-30)
Look for the API certification seal on the oil container. Make sure it says ‘‘For
Gasoline Engines.’’ SAE viscosity: See chart.
B Manual transmission Acura Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF): P/N 08798-9033C Always use Acura MTF. Using motor oil can cause stiffer shifting because it
does not contain the proper additives.
Automatic transmission Acura Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF-Z1): P/N CA66704 Always use Acura ATF-Z1. Using a non-Acura ATF can affect shift quality.
C
D Brake system (including VSA lines)
Clutch system (manual transmission) Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid: P/N 08798-9008
Always use Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can
cause corrosion and decrease the life of the system.

OTC3131
Alternator, Regulator, Battery & Starter tester OTC3131
Available through the Honda Canada Inc. Technical
Tools Department; FAX
866-398-8665/e-mail:
ch_technicaltools ch.honda.com
NOTE:  Air temperature must be within 15 38 °C (59 100 °F) during this procedure.
 After this inspection, you must reset the engine control module (ECM)/powertrain control module
(PCM). Otherwise, the ECM/PCM will continue to stop
the fuel injectors from operating.
 The battery must be in good condition and fully charged.
1. Connect the alternator, regulator, battery & starter tester (OTC3131) to the battery as shown.
NOTE: The probe is not used for battery testing.
2. Do the BATTERY TEST. ThebatteryisOK.Gotostep3.
If the display indicates BAD BATTERY, replace
the battery, then retest. If the display indicates
CHARGE & RETEST, charge the battery, then retest. 3. Connect the Honda Diagnostic System (HDS) to the
data link connector (DLC) (see step 2 on page 11-3).
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
5. Make sure the HDS communicates with the vehicle and the ECM/PCM. If it does not communicate,
troubleshoot the DLC circuit (see page 11-204).
6. Select ALL INJECTORS STOP in the PGM-FI INSPECTION menu with the HDS.
7. Set the parking brake, then with the shift lever in N or P (A/T model) or the clutch pedal pressed (M/T
model), turn the ignition switch to START (III).
The starting system is OK. Go to step 14.
Go to step 8.
8. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
9. Check the electrical connections at the battery, the negative battery cable to the body, the engine
ground cables, and the starter for looseness and
corrosion. Then try cranking the engine again.
Repairing the loose connection corrected the
problem. The starting system is OK. Go to step 14.
Based on the following symptoms, take the
appropriate action:
 If the starter does not crank the engine at all, go to step 10.
 If the starter cranks the engine erratically or too slowly,gotostep12.
 If the starter does not disengage from the flywheel ring gear (M/T model) or torque
converter ring gear (A/T model) when you
release the key, replace the starter, or remove
and disassemble it, and check for the following:
– Starter solenoid and switch malfunction
– Dirty drive gear or damaged overrunning clutch
