No, CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) fluid should not be used in a traditional automatic transmission (ATF). Each type of transmission requires specific fluid formulated for its design and performance characteristics. Using the wrong fluid can lead to poor performance, increased wear, and potential damage to the transmission. Always refer to the vehicle manufacturer's specifications for the appropriate fluid type.
Honda ATF is used only for Honda's Automatic Transmission vehicles. HMMF & CVT Fluid are used for Honda's Continuously Variable Transmission vehicles. HMMF is more expensive and for the Japan domestic market. CVT for the export models but both works well.
Unless you have a CVT transmission use only genuine Honda ATF-DW1 automatic transmission fluid. Use nothing else.
it uses a Delco synthetic transmission fluid on the CVT 4 cylinder transmission and ATF on the V6
No, CVT fluid and automatic transmission fluid (ATF) are specifically formulated for different types of transmissions and are not interchangeable. Using CVT fluid in an ATF gearbox can lead to improper lubrication, increased wear, and potential damage to the transmission. It's crucial to use the manufacturer-recommended fluid type for optimal performance and longevity of the transmission. Always consult the owner's manual or a professional mechanic for guidance.
The DX, LX, and EX models (with the non-CVT transmission) require 2.5 quarts of Honda ATF-Z1 fluid. The GX and Hybrid models equipped with a Continuously Variable transmission require 3.1 quarts of Honda CVT fluid.
Fluid should be CVT not ATF. Nissan vehciles do not use ATF because of its thickness. It may damage your gearbox.

Automatic transmission fluid.
'96-'99 CVT fluid changes are relatively simple. There is a bolt on the passenger side of the transmission that accepts a 1/2" socket wrench nub. Remove that to drain fluid. Put new fluid in (approx 4 quarts). BTW Honda CVT fluid is no longer available, talk to your Honda dealer about what fluid to use. They recommended to me the Honda Genuine ATF. Whatever you do, use only Honda approved ATF for this tranny. Also, flushing the system is recommended for this trans since it has no filter (just the standard magnetic bolt).
Honda ATF-Z1 transmission fluid or a multi-import transmission fluid that meets the requirements for ATF-Z1.
No , ATF is automatic transmission fluid
Yes, ATF+4 replaced the ATF +3 that was used in a 1994 Chrysler automatic transmission.
