HI all...I just completed the second of three drain and fills on my 2008 Honda Element with Redline D4. The vehicle has 87,000 miles and has only had 1 single drain and fill by the original owner at 60,000 miles (Honda DW-1...at the dealership). The vehicle shifts OK but I notice a delay in the upshift from first to second gear...won't upshift until over 2000 rpm with gentle throttle...with any more aggressive acceleration that's more like 2,500-3,000 rpm before shifting into second gear (normal for this vehicle?). All shifts up and down are smooth including the 1-2 upshift...it just seems a little delayed. I've been a big fan of Redline D4 and have used it before with no issues. I'm debating adding Lubegard on the third (and final) fluid change. I'm not sure whether I'd use the red or platinum if I use it at all. I know Honda uses a highly friction modified fluid. As the Redline D4 is what is recommended for Hondas specifying Z-1 fluid (which this vehicle does), would it need the additional friction modifiers of the platinum or just add the red and call it a day? I've always used lubegard in my transmissions and my old Mercury Villager (now driven by my sister for the last 4 years) is shifting great at 220K miles without a transmission service in 100K miles or so with a D4/lubegard red cocktail in the transmission. As far as the delayed 1-2 upshift I may have to check the condition of the solenoids if there isn't any change in that behavior. Any input or advice is appreciated.
