Default Stinky CVT fluid

Just want to point out for all you 2014+ CVT owners that that stinky smell you smell is the CVT fluid. Somehow it gets passed the transmission seals straight from the factory and stinks up the cabin all to hell. You can pull the CVT dipstick for those that have one and smell it.

I will never buy a Honda CVT as a result even though they work great.
