🚨 1996 Honda Integra Type R DC2: Emergency Neutral
The 1996 Honda Integra Type R DC2 was exclusively offered with a manual transmission; no automatic transmission variant exists for this model.
🧰 Drafted with AI under the editorial review of Chris Hackleman & Jeff Moore — cross-check against your owner’s manual when possible.
⚠️ Chock the wheels first — neutral means the car can roll. Set the parking brake while you work, never stand downhill of the vehicle, and try a 12-volt jump before any override: power fixes most stuck-in-park problems instantly.
The procedure
- This vehicle has a manual transmission with a mechanical shifter
- Depress the clutch pedal fully
- Move the shift lever to neutral (center position)
- If the clutch is difficult to depress with no power assist, use body weight on the pedal
- The vehicle can be pushed or rolled in neutral with the clutch depressed or released
With zero electrical power
Manual transmission requires no electrical power to shift into neutral. Simply depress the clutch and move the lever to the center neutral position. The vehicle can be rolled freely in neutral.
