Thanks Fredoops. I have a few more questions:

1. Reading the DIY ATF Service http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthr...and-ATF-Filter. He uses 3/8 Magnetic inline transmission filter. Is that an alternative part to the Honda part 25430-PLR-003?

2. From reading the product information on both Valvoline Maxlife DEX/MERC ATF and Penrite ATF Multi Vehicle FS, it has a note regarding not to be used for DSG and CVT. Does this note apply to the CL9 Euro?

- Valvoline MAXLIFE™ DEX/MERC ATF is suitable for Honda/Acura ATF-Z1 (except in CVTs) applications - http://www.valvoline.com/pdf/maxlife_atf.pdf.

- Penrite ATF Multi Vehicle FS - http://www.penriteoil.com.au/pis_pdf...UNE%202013.pdf. It has a note "Please Note: not for use in 6 and 8 speed ZF transmissions or 7 speed Mercedes Benz transmissions. Not for use in Direct-Shift Gearboxes (DSG) or Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVT)."

Is one better than the other?

3. When you said 3 x 3 - do you mean change the transmission fluid 3 times (every 10000km) with the same oil because each time I drain the transmission fluid I can only get 1/3 of the fluids?

4. When do you actually change the filter at the beginning of the cycle or at the last change?



Many Thanks.
