[CL9]&[CU2] You got Automatic transmission? *you'll WANT to read this*

[Cla]

True, I'll grab some tomorrow.
How much is needed? 12L?

Is it around $70/4L @ honda?

Yea at up to 30000 miles, which is almost 50000km

If you change every 15-20k km then you'd be changing almost just as much fluid as a full 3x3 at 50000km

What he was against was the dealer doing a 1x1 every 40-50k km.

[08r3308]

So in that case if i do 1 x every 10,000 k i should be fine

Maybe i should get another 6l and do 3x3 anyhow

thats what ive heard too. 12L should do the trick with a 3x3 flush (3 litres x 3 times)

Doubt it, it doesn't say its honda ATF compliant.

Just go with the fluid mention here in this thread
I know it's a good idea to ask about other fluids
But Fredoops has made a list suitable for our transmissions
There shouldn't really be a need to doubt that

Not doubting , he has done a great job on this thread

i did a search on different fluids and castrol recommend their fluid in their search for Accord Euro where Valvoline don't.

I did sent email to castrol to see what they would say about this but will see , in meantime i might give Valvoline a go

[08r3308]

not for cu2

[Fredoops]

well... you're in luck...

Redline has a new ATF come out

D6

It's Dw1 compatible.

http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=115&pcid=7

seems that Dw1 is just a thinner ATF cause D6 is thinner than the ole D4.... Might be safer for you to look at DW1 compatible fluids
