Period. - Expensive, but best possible transmission fluid for Honda Automatic Transmissions. For reference, I drive a 2002 Honda Accord V6. The 6th generation Accords, especially the V6 options, are notorious for failures. This is mostly caused by heat and poor adhesives on the clutch pack material, leading to slipping and poor shifting. The original ATF was Z1, then replaced by DW-1 by Honda later. Both were manufactured by Idemitsu. Now, my ATF was very old when I got the car, so dark I thought it was engine oil when it leaked because it was so black. The recommended fix for this is to replace the ATF in a 3-replace pattern, with a full drain and fill, followed by some driving and shifting to allow the ATF to flow everywhere, and replace it twice more. This will replace almost all the ATF. Due to cost, I was using Valvoline’s Maxlife ATF, which performed quite well, but there wasn’t much to help the transmission. Some additives helped, but only Lubegard’s Red and Instant Shudder Fix products. One day, on the V6Performance.net forums, I found this Idemitsu Type-H recommendation and decided it was worth it. After all, if Idemitsu created Honda’s OEM, surely they know what they’re doing. So, I’ve been driving on this for the past 6 months, and have so far been shocked by the consistent reliability. Before, shifting from 1st to 2nd was incredibly rough, and worse from 2nd to 1st. Park to reverse was bad too, making the entire car lurch. Beyond that, the RPM required to speed up was much higher than it was supposed to be, leading to lost power and higher ATF temperatures. Now, it almost feels like a new transmission! It’s not perfect, there’s still some hitching in the shifts, but it’s not nearly as bad as it was, even with all new ATF, and once it’s warmed up, sometimes shifting is invisible. Going from wondering how soon I have to buy a new transmission to realizing I can cost for probably at least a few more years is an incredible change. Highly recommended!

No problems whatsoever...Please make sure you change those 3rd or 4th pressure switches & add a magnetic filter, while wiping clean the drain bolt if you have a 6 speed before you blame the fluid. This stuff is top notch, easy to change, & does a fantastic job of adding shift quality back to all transmissions that need it. We also use the Toyota version in my daughter's vehicle. ## Frequently Bought Together - Idemitsu ATF Type H-Plus Automatic Transmission Fluid for Honda, Acura – 1 Quart, Case of 12 | Engineered for High Performance and Superior Anti-Wear Protection - Transmission Fluid Drain Plug Crush Washer for Honda Accord Acura Civic Ridgeline Odyssey CRV CR-V Pilot Fit Element, Replacement for The Part # 90471PX4000 90471-PX4-000, Pack of 10 pcs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/655348193-idemitsu-atf-type-h-plus-automatic-transmission-fluid-for-honda](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/655348193-idemitsu-atf-type-h-plus-automatic-transmission-fluid-for-honda) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
