To give you peace of mind just do the drain and fill its honestly not that difficult if you have the basic tools.

Thanks for the advice Due! I'm new here, and any advice is greatly appreciated. I've done drain/fills many times... No problem. Curiosity just got the best of me on whether it's ever had Z1 in it at all.

A new ATF will be available for 2011 models in mid-July. Honda ATF DW-1 is the new transmission fluid that helps improve low temperature performance. Initial shipments will be arriving at your dealership soon. Please begin using ATF DW-1 on all 2011 AT models. For AT models 2010 and older, you can continue using Honda ATF-Z1. Future communications will be sent regarding the supply of ATF-Z1 and ATF DW-1.

I hear ya! After reading all the bs people go thru with ATs, I wish I would have gotten an S with the 6MT! My last car (Accord) was a 5MT, and I've always preferred a manual trans. That's what I learned to drive when I was 10.
