Always use genuine Honda Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF). If it is not available, you may use an API service SG or SH grade motor oil
with a viscosity of SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 as a temporary replacement. Motor oil can cause increased transmission wear and higher shifting
effort, so you should have the transmission drained and refilled with Honda MTF as soon as possible.
