Happy new year to you all. Please can I use Oando ATF Dextron III (due to non-availability of DW1 in my current location) for my Honda Accord 2003, 4cyl?

Do that and prepare to replace gear. Try if you can get total MV LV it's 3500/L

Good evening house.

I drive a 2005 Honda accord v6 with navigation but the problem is it didn't come with the dvd so that screen is just idle. All it displays is "insert disc"
Does anyone has an idea of where I can purchase the navigation dvd for this model and what is the price range please.

Kind regards

Honda ATF DW1

If you can't get that exactly, work into Total petrol and ask for total Fluid MV LV @3500/L not the flid 11D oooo.

This is compatible with Honda cars that require DW1

[quote author=MerceeD post=74410094][/quote]

yes you can use the total MV LV for your civic, buy 5litres and add 4L and gauge, if it's OK keep the remaining 1L or use it for your power steering.

actually 05 upwards honda gear was solid and we'll built, but 04 downwards honda gear were shitty.

The funny thing is that the gear would work perfectly for him until he sells it another individual and that person change from his palm oil to DW1 then the gear go kaput grin that's a perfectly definition of lemon.

2001 Honda Accord manual says to use dexron 111 if unable to find Honda ATF-Z1.. Best advise. Download the manual of your 2002 Accord and see the required transmission fluid

dextron 3 was discontinued along time ago and it was replaced by dextron 6

Honda Z1 was replaced by honda DW1

now the manual you quote says use dextron 3 temporarily and expect shifting issues.

The gear in the accord of that year from 99-2004 were always plagued with transmission issues add high mileage usage to it and know they deserve nothing but the best ATF to function optimally.

I have used Oando dextron 3 and I have used Total MV LV which is dextron 6 and DW1 alternative and I can tell you the Total oil out class, out perform and it's worth the penny than Oando dextron 3

Its not actually my total cause I have no shares or gain anything recommending it. If he can get the DW1 it's the perfect fluid, if he can't the Total MV LV is a good alternative.
The total itself is not found in all their fueling stations but specific ones close to highbrow areas

The KA20 engines look alike in both cars but I am certain they are different. Besides the 04 should be a 5 speed auto I am certain the 08upwards would be 6spd auto.

But I think the 05-06 gear can work

Total has another ATf called 11D sold for 1400/L that's not what you are looking for, you should only buy Total MV LV sold 3500/L

The mobil transmission oil is dextron 2 not recommended for you.
