quick ? about tranny flush and fill

Hey, I know the manual says to use only honda ATF. is that for real or just another way to make you spend the $$ at the dealership. I have 5 quarts of Dextron 111 to use. Thanks.

It's not hype. You really need to use Honda Z1 trans fluid.

Also, you don't want to flush these TL transmissions. Just drain and fill.

LOL yup BOB is correcto but the dude at the shop did a flush and fill I believe, when he used that machine with like two tubes. I was like umm argh hmm ok I guess its too late to tell him haha but on the bright side he used the HONDA fluid, which was why I paid 140 for the change.

A Search for "Honda ATF" in just the 2nd Gen forums results in 146 threads. Third thread in the list - Amsoil ATF review

A thread from June Click Here specifically mentions the effects of using 'dexon' III.

Which caused me to do a Search on 'Dexron' - 24 hits, 10 hits on Dextron.
