The ‘23 doesn’t have the ZF transmission seemingly riddled with issues. It does have some odd spec transmission fluid Honda doesn’t like to release metrics for so we can go to good aftermarket options (HPL). Also, it’s not a cvt transmission. HTH Lastly, yes - the level check for the fluid imo...

I hate doing this to mine! It just feels like I’m asking for carb, etc issues tipping that thing on its side.

Awesome! Don’t forget the oiling part. I think uni’s are all oiled.

Yikes. That one is toast! Is there an UNI oiled filter you could run? I ask because I'm currently running one in my mule that's been great compared to the smaller OEM setup that's dry media. The UNI is a larger surface area and barely fits in the airbox. Definitely lowers resistance in...

Sorry for second post, but great point! They also have to contend with the fact that the general public by and large hardly ever even check their oil level, let alone change it themselves. I can’t tell you the amount of people I work with who are purported to be “smart” who don’t know what...

I’d agree with his idea. However I think he’s assuming the engineers wrote the owner’s manual. Which may or may NOT be the case.

Idemitsu psf for my Toyota and Honda needs.

Picked up 12 qts each: 0w30 ppcmo 5w30 ppcmo 6 qts green ATF HPL is good hooch!

me too. I remember the honda van forum thinking I was crazy for asking such a question. Whatever, man.

That looks awesome! NThis should've been an option from the factory IMO. I remember the trans fluid pan drop being a PIA last time I did it on my f150. Nice work all around!

It's the same Amsoil Ea15k13 mentioned/pictured in post #45 above https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/used-amsoil-ea15k13-c-p.385672/post-7268290

Pardon the messy cuts. I’m using a hacksaw.

60 series LC’s are cool. What made you bump to 15W?

I enjoy the inverse mounted or laterally mounted filters and all the spills that happen when trying to prime them before installing. It's a sweet joy of making even more of a mess than you're already dealing with.

It's written by Germans...I'm not surprised by the language. They are quite the sticklers for rule following iirc.

answer is running per mythbusters episode I saw years ago. You want to not get as wet? walking apparently is the answer....though I'm sure there's rain volumes that render this finding moot.

It would be cool if ordering an EaO filter in some of the smaller sizes was an option. I’ve given up on trying f to get a Donaldson high end small filter for the applications I have to cover.

(facepalm) gotcha. I thought this was NOT an issue with Amsoil filters...clearly I was mistaken! so next time, get a flashlight oily and shine light below via the center tube and see if I can see "daylight" with the spring still in position?

If you’re talking about the circled area, I think that was symmetrical on the opposite side too. I’m guessing from the stamping?
