Honda Recommended Lubricant list

Here is a little something I ran across on a Honda Odyssey forum. This applies to all Honda cars and trucks and should answer most questions about what lubricant to use where. Most of these are readily available either at a parts store or a Honda dealer.



Honda Recommended Grease and Lubricants
"A recommended Grease and Lubricant material is selected by Honda engineers only after its effectiveness has been evaluated under the conditions in which it will be used. This Service Bulletin describes most of the recommended materials commonly referenced in Honda service and training publications. You can purchase these materials through local suppliers; many are also available through American Honda.

GREASES AND LUBRICANTS:

Material USA Part # Canada Part # Description and/or Usage

3M Brake Lube 3M #08945 N/A High-temperature anti-seize lubricant and corrosion protection for tight-fitting or dissimilar metal parts. It’s good for minimizing exhaust system buzz.

Heavy Duty Brake Fluid DOT 3 08798-9008 4423802 The only brake fluid specifically formulated for use in Honda vehicles. It helps to reduce the corrosive effects of moisture in the fluid and is compatible with synthetic and rubber materials.

Anti-Freeze/Coolant - Type 2 OL999-9011 6512636 Extended life coolant. Do not add water as it comes premixed.

Brembo Brake Grease 08798-9027 7773278 The only recommended grease to be used on Brembo brake pads.

CV Joint Grease-Inner (yellow) 08798-9003 4011748 Extreme-pressure, high-temperature grease for inner CV joint lubrication.

CV Joint Grease-Outer (black) 08798-9007 4414405 Extreme-pressure grease for lubricating outer CV joints.

DC 111 Silicone Paste Call Dow Corning: (800) 248-2481 High-viscosity lubricant for rubber-to-metal and plastic-to-metal contact. Also used for suspension bushings and brake system seals.

Honda Caliper Grease 08C30-B0224M 4853958 High-temperature, silicone-based grease used to lubricate caliper slide pins.

Shin-Etsu Silicone Grease 08798-9013 4642294 Used to reduce rubber-to-rubber noises and to lubricate roof seals.

Molykote 44MA Call Dow Corning: (800) 248-2481 Moly grease used between the brake shoes and backing plate and on the ends of the shoes.

Molykote MH62 08798-9012 4562187 Moly grease used to lubricate plastic-to-plastic contact.

Molykote M77 (75-gram jar) 08798-9010 4503793 A high-molybdenum-content paste that polishes more than it lubricates. Use it on the back of brake pads and on brake shims.

Power Steering Grease 08C35-B0534L 6009583 The only recommended power steering grease because of cold weather properties. Use only on steering racks.

Super High Temp Urea Grease 08798-9002 3720984 Medium-viscosity grease used to lubricate parts with metal-to-metal and metal-to-plastic contact. It’s good for mainshaft splines and clutch pivot points.

Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Fluid 08200-9006 5030119 The only CVT fluid specifically formulated for use in Honda CVTs.

Automatic Transmission Fluid - Z1 08200-9001 6512628 The only ATF specifically formulated for use in Honda A/Ts. Don’t use any other ATF.

Manual Transmission Fluid 08798-9031 4928271 The only MTF specifically formulated for use in Honda M/Ts. Don’t use any other MTF.

Dual Pump Fluid 08200-9002 6512644 Use in the CR-V dual pump rear differential. The fluid helps reduce noise and wear.

VTM-4 Differential Fluid 08200-9003 6512651 Use in vehicles equipped with an active torque rear differential. The fluid helps to reduce noise and wear.

Water Pump Lubricant 08798-9005 4212049 When added to the coolant, this lubricant reduces noise caused by water pump bearings and seals.

Lock Lube 08732-0010 6985634 A grease that’s safe to use in all types of locks: door, ignition, and trunk."

Dot3 only?? why does my filler cap say dot3 or dot4 ???

Honda MTF works well, but I find Amsoil works better for me.

I know your probably just cutting and pasting from the manual or another website, so I really don't need a response.

btw, really good info.

Re: Honda Recommended Lubricant list

Well these are just lubricants that Honda has tested in-house and determined that they work correctly. This doesn’t mean that others wont work. This is just the list the a dealer will use to make sure they are using the right stuff. Thanks for the stickey
