What is Honda CVT fluid?

Honda CVT Fluid
Honda CVT fluid is a type of transmission fluid specifically designed for vehicles equipped with Continuously Variable Transmissions (CVTs) manufactured by Honda. CVTs are a type of automatic transmission that uses a pulley system to provide seamless gear ratio changes, resulting in smoother acceleration and improved fuel efficiency.
Honda CVT fluid is formulated with advanced technology-based oils and additives to provide various benefits, including:
1. Increased oxidation resistance and fewer deposits.
2. Longer drain intervals.
3. Better fluidity at cold temperatures for easier starting.
4. Advanced wear protection to reduce wear and increase service life.
It is important to note that Honda CVT fluid is specifically designed for vehicles equipped with 1st generation CVTs and should not be used in 2nd generation CVTs. It is recommended to refer to the vehicle’s owner’s manual for the correct fluid specifications and application guidelines.
