Acurian A After draining the first 3qts, how much should I drive before repeating the process? Should I just drive a bit and fill on the same day or wait 24 hours? Some people have suggested spreading it out over a month or weekly? #1 · Jan 12, 2016 (Edited) After draining the first 3qts, how much should I drive before repeating the process?

Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions #2 · Jan 14, 2016 Probably a good question to ask is how many miles are on your car? If you're at the factory recommended change interval, I wouldn't take too long between each D&F (but I'm new into Honda/Acura ownership). One of the knowledgeable members of this board recommended changing transmission fluid every 25-30K miles. He also recommended using Honda ATF. These are recommendations I intend to follow with my TSX. #3 · Jan 16, 2016 http://www.tsxclub.com/forums/1st-gen-car-care/60525-how-replace-automatic-transmission-fluid.html #4 · Apr 20, 2016 Hi guys, Just an update: I ended up doing a 3x3 drain and fill with 1 gas tank between consecutive changes. The shifting is very smooth now. Also replaced the ATF Filter with Honda OEM filter and used Honda DW-1 ATF. Insert Quotes Post Reply
