My mothers Civic Hybrid with the CVT calls for ATF Z1 fluid. At the dealer the other day, I see they now offer a new fluid for this application (Honda CVT Fluid) The parts dept tells me this has been SOP for 2 years now. Last year, Honda flushed and filled the CVT due to some noise in the unit. They used the ATF Z1 as the manual calls for. I say something dont jive here...Why have a new fluid for this application and then say the older fluid is OK? There must be an issue with the ATF Z1 in the CVT or they would nor retro spec a new fluid??
