I bought this simply to add to my collection of castrol stuff. Found it in an old napa store covered in dust. They actually have a bunch of it still. I know castrol says the date is when it was filled, and last a long time on the shelf. However I'm curious about the date on this one. I know this...

That's what I thought at first. But I'm on a lift, and I check the overfill bolt every time after warming it up until the fans come on twice. It's definitely not overfilled. I'm wondering if it's a reaction to the castrol that's still somehow in there? You'd think after 3 drain and fills it...

Recently I decided to switch over to valvoline cvt in my 2019 honda civic ex-t coupe. I've noticed a fresh cvt smell when going from P to R to D if I have the fan on the upper vents. I did my 4th drain and fill last night. There's zero leaks, spills, etc. It's the strangest thing. I know plenty...

That's so odd. I get mixed signals when talking to castrol lol. I emailed them awhile ago too about why they discontinued magnetec and why they took the fluid titanium out of edge. It seems like the oil for the north American market is different from the rest of the world or something? If you...

I received an email back from castrol. They said it can last many many years if stored correctly. They do recommended however using fluids within 2-5 years. I had also asked why they discontinued it in the first place for the new atf/cvt and they just said because " it was redundant ".

Yeah the red color has never bothered me. I've always trusted and used castrol for decades now. Atleast since 2001. Been running castrol edge 0w20 basically since the 3rd oil change on my car. Prior to that it was whatever honda uses. I worked at a honda dealership off and on since 2016, and...

Yeah I've been running the castrol universal stuff in my 2019 civic coupe ex-t since 20,000 miles. At 78,000 now. Was just never able to get my hand on the original stuff. I've actually experimented a few time with the hcf-2 compared with the castrol. I've noticed the castrol for whatever reason...

Wow thanks everyone for the quick replies. I think I'll like it here. I just did a drain and fill with it. Shook the crap out of the containers. Then cut then open, no sludge or build up. I've been using the universal castrol atf/cvt , but when I saw the deal I had to get it. 2018 is older than...

I got something like 44 quarts at $2 each. Been in a heated garage their whole life.

New here, I recently acquired a bunch of castrol transmax cvt. I'm curious about the date, and if it's OK to use? I'm assuming that date means 2018? Thanks.
