    I'm guessing they kept some for themselves or they filled it up using the wrong hole and most of it ended up coming back out when the test drove the car.

    according to honda-tech its 3 quarts ( 2.8 litres) .
    Dosent really matter , as when you fill it up the exact amount
    will top it and any extra will leak back out the side fill hole.

    not getting any grinds in mine. unless i screw up lol (but that never happens )

    changed the MTF not too long ago and i think the B16 box took about 2.5 ish litres. (bought three bottles and have a little left)

    You don't need more than 2 bottles.(not sure how much is one 1 bottle). i used two bottles and had about a quarter-to-half bottle left over. Honda overcharges you for more liquid than you need in their services.

    I think the grinding was a synchro problem in the DC5R gearbox. No problem with using MTF in the 6-speed manual from the k24a3.

    Recently I've been getting grinds or find it hard to shift from 1st to 2nd gear. It's worst when the car is cold and gradually gets better once the car is warmed up.

    I am thinking about changing to redline gearbox oil myself.

    Does it do the trick?
