Mine is an 03 non-S and I'm sure the trans could ude the scheduled maintenance. I'm at about 53,700 right now. My question is, what do I use? I've heard good things about RedLine which I can get through work. But, what weight?

 

Anybody? And yes, I realize now that I'm retarded and spelled the title wrong.

 

Manual transmission typically use grease or gear oil. Fluid is usually for the automatic transmission. Just FYI.

I do not see in my owner's manual the weight of the lube used in the transmission though.

 

Yeah, I know and I see that I did quote it wrong. But, a lot of Honda's actually use 10W30 as manual trans fill. All I need is a weight and hopefully, a reccomendation.

 

Corrected.

 

Sweet, thanks. Now maybe people will read my post instead of thinking I'm talking about some weird fluid that dosen't exist.

 

I looked in Mitchell and it doesn't list it either, call the dealer and ask.. that is what I am gonna do for my 04.

so I just called and they said that there is a label on the bottom of the pan that tells you.

can't find the label though

 

Redline MTL (70W80) is a direct replacement for the OEM gear lube. I switched, felt no difference. Go with whatever is least expensive in the synthetics.
