Use Honda ATF-Z1 in your vehicle’s automatic transmission (ATF-Z1 is a trade name for automatic transmission fluid). You can use a DEXRON III as a stopgap measure if it isn’t available. However, continued use may degrade the shift quality. Have the gearbox flushed and refilled with Honda ATF-Z1 as soon as possible.
