what does your owner's manual say?

[Fredoops]

whatever the manual say.

then halve it.

Do it now if you want to keep the car for a while
Just 2.5-2.7 litres of DW1
And you're set

OK DW1 Honda Trans fluid. GOT IT. But to flush it shouldn't i do it several times to clear all the old fluid out of it & does the transmission have a filter i have to change. Thanks Guys.

[Jasemas]

Just do a drain and fill every 100kms, just at least do it 3 times
And the filter is under the air intake, behind the battery on top of the autobox
Youll see the pipe and filter
Honda do sell it
There is a DIY on here on how to change it

[Fredoops]

you can do this 2 ways:

1. do a 3x3 change every 80k km
2. do a single fluid change every 20k km

BMW say their trans are fill for life, which is full of shit.

if only 30k on the clock, just drain and fill every 20k.

should keep it newish enough

I would do a drain and fill every 30k. This is what the tranny fluid looks like at only 30k.
Normal day to day driving.

Yes I did mine at 32,000 kys & it was just like that & the magnet was realy full of gunk.. I did a full flush by draining& fill 3 times no she is good to go for a nother 30k
