HPL honda 10 speed recommendation

[gasman556]

Does anyone or @High Performance Lubricants have a recommended ATF fluid color for the 10 speed transmission in a 2023 honda odyssey? It's the 10 speed calling for type 2.0 honda atf. I checked the chart on the HPL website and this spec is not listed on their chart. TIA.

what is Honda’s OE fluid recommendation for it? also, it’s probably quicker to email Dave @ HPL directly. Dave is very quick to answer any questions about his products.

Yeah thats like the latest spec. OP Should reach out to HPL Directly. Personally, the OEM Honda Acura fluid is expensive enough to where Id be looking for other options too.

that’s exactly what i recommended….

I’ve got an email out. Thanks for that rec. The Honda stuff is expensive (overpriced imo) and likely not as good comparatively to other options (HPL, amsoil red top). I’ll update whenever they get back to me.

Bumping this old thread to life. It looks like HPL updated their recommended ATF sheet to indicate you can use their "green" on the transmissions calling for type 2.0 fluid. Is this what everyone else is seeing? Or am I taking crazy pills?

Isn't that transmission a ZF-designed (spec) unit ? I thought I'd seen that ZF-type fluids are okay in it.

The Honda stuff is expensive (overpriced imo)

Popular phrase from here: "It's cheap insurance. Fluids are cheap, (insert) component here."

I know the….8/9 speed that ran in the first couple model years of this generation ody DID have a zf trans. I don’t know that they did after that, as those were known to be problematic.

Thanks for this. Using the amsoil website however, it recommends the red label. Interesting.

And this is the PMXA trans?

This is not a ZF transmission it's Honda designed (10 speed).

Amsoil says Type 3.0; Honda 2.0 use ATL (blue)
Amsoil says Honda 2.0 use ATF (red)

What exactly does your owner's manual say?

I do recall that now, that Honda moved away from the 8/9-speed ZFs on some models and went to their own 10-speed.
