Does everyone use genuine Acura fluids? Or genuine Honda fluids? They're both the same right? Or do you use the regular fluids that you buy at autozone. Or what do you use on your Type S?

 

inthe process of buying a dc5 i would like to know this also

 

i try to stick to honda/acura fluids.

 

The honda/acura fluids are basically the same, although, I thought I heard Acura had a friction modified version of their MTL, but OEM fluids will work fine in your car, and survive basically anything we can throw at them. Any DOT 3 or 4 brake and clutch fluid (same) will work, but NOT dot 5.

Any engine oil that meets the API ratings in either synthetic or conventional will also be fine.

 

thanks ... because on the cap of where the power steering fluid goes says to only use honda genuine power steering fluid... i was just wondering if acura fluids was the same as honda fluids...
