Default 2006 Accord Hybrid

The owners manual refers to trans fluid and transfer fluid.
I assume these are separate fluids and drained separately.
Any help on their location and drain and fill procedure?

I have a 2006 Accord V6 Hybrid and the manual refers to replacing the transmission and transfer fluids. Is this a separate drain from the transmission and where is it?
All due respect to using Honda fluid, but is Dextron III OK with no damage? Any experience in this regard?

Dexron III? No. The transmission would probably shift worse than with dirty Honda fluid. Use the new Honda DW-1 fluid. You can get the fluid at a better price, if you buy a case. I get most everything from online Honda dealerships, because even with shipping costs, they beat the local dealership's prices plus tax. Transfer fluids? Never heard that before.

Honda seems to be very specific with their PS ans ATF fluid requirements, so I would confirm with your manual and the dealership on what you should be using with your car.

Default Transfer Fluid 2006 Accord V6 Hybrid

The owners manual refers to Transfer Fluid and the transmission fluid separately.
Is it a separate drain and if so, where is it.
Thanks for any help.
