That's True, I Think That's One Of The Reason's Why The Tranny Go's Out So Quickly. I Had Changed Mine At 60k I Think.... You Could Also Use 30 Weight Motor Oil For The Tranny.

agreed ... you're gonna regret it dude ...
Amsoil even created an MTF of their own that works in honda trannies ... I'm currently using it right now.
You shouldn't even be using 0w30 ... 5w20 or 0w20 if I were you ...

yeah, in the owner manual it only recommends you to use the motor oil as a temporary source of fluid, till you can get MTF put in.
