Question
Quick question....My TSX '07 has just over 57,000 miles and has been fully serviced at my local Acura dealer since I bought it new. I have yet to have the transmission come up for servicing. I keep reading 30k is when it should be changed/flushed. Is this something that will show in my maintenance minder or is it something I should initiate at my next visit?

My 06 TSX trans code came up at 60,000 mile mark. I also changed the ATF fluid at 30,000 for the fun of it at Acura a few years back. 60,000 miles and +100,000 miles seems way too long to me for changing out ATF. I'm still not use to +100,000 miles for the spark plugs.
Make sure you use Honda ATF only and don't do one of those complete flush jobs on the 5AT.

On the 3G TL side, there are many threads that discuss both MTF and ATF fluid change intervals.
If your car is an auto, 30k between fluid changes is too long. 60k? Forget it. Acura fluids break down much too fast to let them sit in there that long. I'd do 1 drain/fill every 10k. Seriously. If you're over 30k, I'd do 3 drain/fills, and a drain/fill every 10k after that.

It's an Auto and I drive a mix of highway and city. Next service will be at 60k so I will see what comes up. Now, everytime I go to the dealer they charge me to "check" everything over. If the trans fluid had broken down would they be able to tell? I check the fluid levels myself but other than that I am hands off.
