If I recall correctly, Honda MTF is not a synthentic based oil so it makes me wonder why this is the case. After going through the archives, someone mentioned that our trannys need friction to work correctly. More specifically, the process of the synchros meshing with the gears need friction to mesh more smoothly.

Does synthetic based MTF hinder this friction?

 

Can someone positively clearify that MTF is synthetic or not? I was searching for this answery myself.

 

Honda MTF = non-synthetic

Honda MTF II = full synthetic

 

If you look under the thread I created about fluids...Bbasso provided a link to another site where someone had sent the MTF off and had a compositional analysis performed....very informative!

 

This MTF II does anyone know if the regular stealerships carry this or is it special order?

Yeah, I want to know the same thing.

So I guess the answer is then, synthetic MTF has no ill effects on our tranny's.
