I have been doing a lot of reading in regards to Honda DW-1 trans fluid. I see several alternatives that people have had success with. Here is my dilemma. I have a 2002 Honda Civic with a bad transmission. I have a good (136k mile) transmission that i pulled from a 2003 Civic that had been wrecked and had a knocking motor. I was able to drive the cat to verify the trans was good. I am about to install this trans into my car and was going to use DW-1 fluid. However, upon reading, I have access to plenty of Mobil Delvac 1 Full synthetic atf and Penzoil LV Full synthetic ATF through work. Link to both are posted below. Do you think these would be fine or should I stick to the DW-1, MaxLife, or the others that have been posted. Just thought I would ask. Thanks for any replies and opinions.
