Thank you very much for this valuable information.

I believe it's just evaporation as I don't see any leaks. I was in Maine at the time when I posted the question, now in NY so I didn't have a dealership to get OEM PS fluid. Needed fluid promptly since I was about to do a 475 mile drive so I went to Autozone and bought Prestone specifically...

All of you gave great advice when I was in the process of draining/refilling my transmission fluid. I have a 2002 Acura TL sType and power steering fluid is low. Does it matter the brand/type I put in to fill it up to the correct line?

Thank you!!! Yes, the part you posted is the one that's being sold at O'Reilly's. Autozone is offering one from Duralast for half the price. Is the Wix brand a higher quality brand?

Does the brand matter for the filter at the auto parts store for 2002 Acura TL sType? 1. https://www.autozone.com/filters-and-pcv/transmission-filter-a-t/p/duralast-automatic-transmission-filter-tf558/442858_0_0 2. Would I need the actual kit or is the filter itself okay to purchase...

Arrggh I had a snag happen in my ordering. I successfully received the ATF by Honda, the red bottled fluid Lubegard ATV synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid suggested earlier, BUT the genuine Honda filter for the transmission got lost somewhere out there and wasn't delivered from Amazon. They...

Thank you!

Thank you!

That's good to know, thank you!

Tom if I'm understanding you correctly you're saying it's important to use to OEM transmission fluid made by Honda/Acura?

Ok I went to Acura parts here: https://www.acurapartswarehouse.com/oem-acura-automatic_transmission_filter.html?vin=&make=Acura&model=TL&year=2002&submodel=&extra1=4%20Door%20TYPE-S&extra2=KA%205AT&filter=() and then went to ebay and found the same part for a far cheaper price...

ok I can start looking for the genuine Acura part.

Well I better do it now as I don't know if a new filter was put in 15k miles ago. This good? Or do you have a better suggestion on companies and parts for deals and quality...

All you wonderful members are very patient with me, thank you!!! Do I need to change the filter each time I drain and refill the transmission fluid? I know that might be a very naive question but I gotta ask it. I don't know if it's different than changing oil that requires a new filter each time?
