Motul is good oil.

It's just me, but doing the right services on schedule is a good long-term investment for your car. You should be able to afford it if you were able to afford the TSX. You might reap the benefits of it along the way.

That is the timing chain service. The tranny oil is due a lot earlier than that.

Just want to correct my previous post: Your first choice really should be OEM tranny fluid. But my previous experience with AT fluid, Motul did the job right, at least I think it did.
