So I was reading up on Redline High Temp ATF. I'm due for my transmission drain and fill from the break in of the new transmission I got last month. Should I switch to this or should I stick with the Honda ATF?

 

Just stick with Honda ATF Z1. Change it every 20-30k and you will be fine.

 

Stick with honda or Maybe amsoil

 

In the TL automatic transaxle we recommend the D4ATF a suitable replacement for the ATF-Z1 fluid. The High Temp ATF is a higher viscosity fluid typically used in extreme applications where additional viscosity at elevated temperature could be beneficial. The higher viscosity though can alter the shift characteristics causing a delayed and firmer shift at lower temperatures.

hmm. i guess Honda ATF it is. lol

 

So only honda or acura dealers hae thos ATF oil like you guys said ? or it would be available anywhere like autozone or somthing ?

 

hey look - you registered and posted one day after the thread was started. hmmmmm.

 

yup, honda or acura only, just maybe ebay has some?

 

should do mine? It was replaced last winter and I've put on it about 4500miles.

 

1st timer dont replace it yet, not needed replace it 15k-20k miles.

 

honda or amsoil. amsoil is a perfectly fine replacement. that's what I've used and I've had good success with trannys. 1st one lasted until 143k+

 

I'm so lost. lol What would be a proper replacement? And Raj, I was told to do a drain and fill after 1500 miles of the reman transmission being in my car to remove any metal particles that may have come off and went into the oil.

 

yea if u have a reman, than yea. i dont know what mileage to replace it if u have a reman.
