03 1.4 changing CVT oil - dercof
I use my car intermittently- usually short journeys < 10 miles, occasionally much more. My car is 3 years old and done almost 15000 miles. Should I change the CVT oil ( Using Honda's CVTF)?

This is a bit late but the recommendation for lightly used cars such as yours is to change the transmission fluid every two years or 24,000 miles, whichever comes first. Ideally you should have changed it 12 months before you asked.

Honda's transmission fluid is ATF-Z1

03 1.4 changing CVT oil - Berisford

........but for Honda CVT's (as the OP states) it's now 'CVT-F' oil.

Bit old this thread!
