Factory specs call for change every 30,000 miles or every 24 months. Realistically, when you pull the transaxle dipstick and can see that the fluid still retains a visibly pink color, you should be all right. If it begins to turn dark it needs changing.

Honda does not recommend you change the A/T fluid every 30,000 miles or every 24 months except under sever conditions which is regularly driving short distances of less than 5 miles. For normal driving Honda recommends you change the A/T fluid every 120,000 miles or 6 years whichever comes first and then after that every 90,000 miles or 5 years, which would apply to your Honda unless you drive it under severe conditions. If you drive under severe conditions then every 30,000 miles or 2 years would be correct. Your car is 11 years old so for sure you need to have the fluid changed immediately. Warning: Use only genuine Honda ATF DW-1 A/T fluid and nothing else or you will experience rough shifting. This is all listed in your owners manual on page 237-240.
