Well if you've tried both and found Honda MTF2 to be the best, I might as well stick with it. I have zero issues with my tranny, an 02 with 55k miles, I might as well stick with the Honda fluid. My interest was peaked by guys claiming that GMSMFM felt improved over the Honda fluid. If I stick to 5k oci's on Honda MTF2 it should be sufficient I think. I wish I could see some UOAs of both fluids though, I may have my Honda fluid UOA sample in the next month or so.
