Dear Accord community:
Around or aprox 150 miles ago - yes one five zero miles not one hundred fifty thousand miles - I made a change on my 1999 Accord ATF. My pal (my Accord) had like a 50000 miles. Since where my pal and I lives is sometimes hard to find the right brand on the product (everybody is strongly recommending Honda ATF Z1), I found Valvoline which I believe still has some reputation and prestiges. I change the ATF and put Valvoline DEXRON III that comply exactly the specs and demands from Honda. The other variable here is that the AT of the 1999 Accords apparently are defectives and fragiles. Since mine is a 1999, did I do right changing the ATF and changing with Valvoline instead of Honda ATF Z1? Number 2, since this ATF change has only 150 miles, can this be consider a flush and not a change if I find Honda ATF Z1, and change it ASAP?
Thank you in advanced for your help, commenst, inputs, and your valuable time responding my question. To all, thank you
