Hey Guys my gf recently picked up an 01 Honda Accord EX V6...just wanted to get some input as far as fluids are concerned!
1. What kind of fluids should I use? Engine, Trans, Coolant, etc?
2. Can anybody recommend a website for OEM honda parts? A reputable internet based parts department that is...
3. Anybody have links to DIY repairs for the J30A1?
Anyway, those are my 3 main questions...my first question is the most serious one...I mean when I read the owners manual, it says to use ONLY Honda genuine fluids...and that includes engine oil! And if Honda fluid isn't use, please use it as temporary replacement and switch to genuine when you get the chance...is this an obvious marketing tactic?
Now I realize the newer auto trannies, like the one in my mother's 05 toyota camry, REQUIRE the genuine toyota fluid or else transmission failure can occur...but what about this 01 Honda Accord v6?
