    The best choice for 6MT Honda Civic SI
    By  CLIFF,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Western Canada  on  October 29, 2024
    Original owner of 2008 Honda Civic SI and made the change to AMSOIL synthetic at the first oil and filter interval for both engine and transmission. 16 years later and still still a daily driver with zero issues in the power-train. From -40 to +40 centigrade this synthetic oil has been ideal in our harsh conditions. I can confidently recommend this to anyone looking for a superior synthetic lubricant in their motor vehicle.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    2001 Honda Civic
    By  CHRISTOPHER,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Phoenix Az  on  July 08, 2024
    Made a huge difference. When I upgraded the detent springs it dramatically increased the effort to take the car out of a chosen gear. This transmission fluid made a huge difference in changing all the gears. I never had problems before, but the transmission is way smoother now. Highly recommend for Honda manual transmissions.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    90% happy
    By  EDWARD,  a  Verified Buyer  from  San Pedro  on  March 01, 2024
    1996 Honda Accord 5sp manual. Have a very slight issue. After installing the recommended AMSOIL manual transmission oil. I find that just after starting the cold vehicle, it’s a bit stiff shifting till things warm up. After A mile or two it becomes buttery smooth.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Wonderful Stuff
    By  JOE,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Raleigh - NC  on  January 04, 2024
    Been putting this off for months now - had lots of fluids to choose from BUT I’ve heard many good things about AMSoil and have been anxious to try it out - the ordering process was fast&simple, shipping was STOOPID Fast.. I’ve put about 300 miles on the car since changing out my old dirty OEM trans fluid and replaced with AMSoil Synchromesh and things are moving and grooving SUPER smooth. No more ‘notchy’ feeling between gear changes and buttery smooth engagement… Will definitely recommend! Probably going to try the 0W20 Full Synthetic motor oil next! Thanks AMSoil!!!
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Hopefully they make a bag version
    By  MICHAEL,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Las Vegas  on  December 22, 2023
    I have used this in my Honda and it definitely is better. I changed my MT fluid with Honda oem for a few times. I then switched to the Amsoil and there was no longer 1st gear pop outs. I’m hoping they make a BAG version like they do with their gear fluids
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Works great
    By  JOEL,  a  Verified Buyer  on  November 25, 2023
    This is the only oil the trans shop recomends for the NV5600. If I use any other oil warranty will be void. Shift great!
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
