Many Honda auto transmissions actually shift, like a manual trans inside!
Way different than anybody else's.

A friction modified fluid can go either way - more or less friction.

Trying other fluids is a chance thing. You may get smoothness, but more wear. Or nice firm shifts with less wear.
Good luck!

Smoothness may not mean more wear...but it also depends on the speed of the shift as well. Fast and smooth is a good thing.

A good indication on these transmissions are the [censored] on the drain plug magnet on a fluid change.
