Review on Honda Automatic Transmission Fluid ATF DW1 by Darin Grosz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Genuine Honda Fluid

Found on Revain as part of a "hot sale". The bottles were identical in appearance and weight (to the gram) to the DW1 bottles purchased from the dealer, so I'm pretty sure they're real. Did a few drains and fills on my 18 RDX 6 speed auto. Improved cold shifting that was "jerky" until the fluid warmed up. Honda typically requires a 35,000 mile fluid change (check the service code) on the DW1 AT. In my experience this is when you will see the drop in performance of the DW1 fluid. YMMV.

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • This is driving me crazy
