Honda MTF. ~7-8$ / qt at the dealer, or $60 for a 12qt back at bernardi parts.

I've never had good experiences with anything other than Honda MTF in a Honda trans. I've tried Motul, RP, Mobil 1, and others, and never seen any gains in efficiency or wear resistance, even when racing- stick to the OEM- they know how to build 'em Mark W.

Any DIY guidelines? Where the fill and drain plug. What size wrench? How to remove plastic pan underneath?
