You must be dreaming... 100k mile fluid is a joke. With that aside, if the Mobil 1 ATF has eqivalent or better specs than Honda/Acura ATF, then by all means go for it.Has anyone use Mobil 1 ATF in their trans instead of the Honda ZF1? The manual calls for ATF change every 30K miles. Most auto transmissions these days have 100K mile fluid.
Car manufacturers hope you wait till 100k... Agree with km9v if it matches requirements then you can use it. Honda doesn't make their oil/fluid they buy it from somebody, they could be buying it from Exxon/Mobil... Caveat if it is still under warranty I would use the Honda fluid in case something goes wrong.You must be dreaming... 100k mile fluid is a joke.

I didn't wait that long with the MDX. The 100K mi figure came from my other car, Camaro SS w/ 6sp manual. It uses ATF fluid & the change interval is indeed 100K miles. I replaced it ~95K mi & the fluid looked brand new. Of course a manual trans does abuse the fluid as much as an auto.If you check out my recent post, you won't think about wait until 100k, your tranny will be tossed.
I actually remember someone saying to use the Valoline ATF instead of Honda's, but I really don't remember if he was referring to the 2nd gen or 3rd gen.I didn't wait that long with the MDX.

I was just trying to find out if anyone here had actually used the Mobil 1 ATF in their MDX & if there was any issues with it.
I have 2017 MDX. I got about 52000 miles. I recently just replaced my transmission fluid with Mobil 1 ATF. It been working fine.Has anyone use Mobil 1 ATF in their trans instead of the Honda ZF1?
