Use Honda ATF after used other brands
Hi all,
My 92 accord AT has had ATF changed every 30k at shop in the past. I don't know the brands the shop used. I've read this forum and decide to use genuine Honda ATF from now.
Is there any issues of using genuine product after using third party ATF in Honda engine?
Thank you for your advice. Ted

If I had a car which called for Dextron-II, I'd probably use this ATF:

Hi Shipo,
I saw that Valvoline but have been reluctant on it because it's not Dextron II.
Hi Jim, don't say sorry. You have been very helpful in the forum for many years. Seeing your response makes me happy already.
Thank you both.

Keep in mind, Dexron VI is by definition backward compatible with Dexron II; I do not believe there are any purpose built Dexron II ATF formulations available anywhere in the world.

You're not going to find any Dexron II available anywhere. It's no longer made, because it's been superseded by whatever the latest Dexron is at the store (Dexron VI). This has been a problem for years, especially to GM owners (like my 88 Chevy), as their vehicles were built to use Dexron II. I have an old 70 VW here, that uses Dexron II for fluid, same as a 92 Toyota I have here (called out on both owners manuals).
