What transmission fluids are typically stocked at a Honda dealership
Dealerships carry fluids designed for Honda transmissions to match factory specifications. The list below covers the main types you are likely to encounter at the counter or through the service department.
- Honda Genuine ATF DW-1 — the standard automatic transmission fluid for many Hondas and some CVTs that specify DW-1

How to ensure you get the right fluid
To avoid mis-specification, confirm the precise fluid type before purchase. Bring your vehicle’s year, make, model, and VIN when possible, and ask the parts advisor to verify the correct fluid specification (for example DW-1 or CVT Fluid) according to your owner's manual.
