    Valvoline Restore and Protect

    235K tranny fluid?

    Indeed. I can drain the ATF in my CRV with all 4 wheels on the ground, no ramp or jack needed. Same can’t be said of the oil.

    2010 Honda Odyssey 175k Miles, which ATF?

    Took me 5 drain and fills for my 2007 CRV to finally start coming out clean and not dark. Cleared up the funky hard 1-2 shift I had. First three were with DW1 before switching to MaxLife.

    I love road trips and that looks like a pretty sweet rig. Partner and I have talked about it for the last couple years. Once we get some other business settled we hope to hit the road in a similar type of setup.
