    Unquestionably better than OEM
    By  CHRISTOPHER,  a  Verified Buyer  from  NorCal  on  April 23, 2025
    This fluid took what felt like I was shifting through marbles with what I'll call 'finicky' downshifting and smoothed things right out. Change it every 30k and things stay nice and smooth.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Fixed my sticky gear
    By  WILLY,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Manteca CA  on  March 27, 2025
    I can’t believe it worked! Occasionally 3rd gear would lock out or grind in my 8th gen Honda civic Si. After reading multiple forums talking about how well it works I gave it a try. Immediately the problem went away and I have not looked back over the last month! Great product!
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Good fanual transmission oil for Honda
    By  Joel,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Granby, Québec, Canada  on  February 07, 2025
    I had a small, annoying issue with my 2013 Honda Civic since I bought it. (Over 5 years) Second gear was often notchy when downshifting from 3-2, especially in winter during cold weather and the first kilometers driven after starting the car. (Full warm I almost never have this issue.) I saw great reviews about the Amsoil MTF for Honda cars and I decided to give it a try. I replaced my MTF about 3 weeks ago and so far this oil seems to have reduced my notchy second gear about 50% when the car is cold so it's pretty nice. The reason I give 4 stars is because it's pretty expensive but otherwise it's a great product.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    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.
