Are you talking manual 6MT or auto trans?

If you have an auto: This is from the RDX forum but I have owned both and done trans. fluid changes on both and they are pretty much identical. **The current fluid by Acura is synthetic**

You can also use Honda DW-1 fluid (replaces Z-1). It is identical to Acura DW-1 except for the container labeling.
Honda Part Number: 08200-9008
Acura Part Number: 08200-9008A.
I find that Honda dealers typically give better discounts.
