The fluid is dyed green, it is not your conventional red ATF. Castrol also had a CVT fluid, it covered Hondas specs, but did not mention MS-12106. Expect about $10 a quart.

2024年12月18日 · The CVT concept looks great on paper, but we've been accustomed from the beginning to gears that shift in steps.

There is no dealer rebuild or overhaul support for these transaxles. The pump will whine if the filters get plugged. If the filters are restricting with clutch material or metal bits, the CVT is doomed.

2018年1月3日 · The CVT was the same way when Chrysler signed the contract to incorporate its use. JATCO stated that the unit was not to be serviced by Chrysler dealers and that it was a 'take-one-out, put-one-in unit'. After awhile, JATCO did allow filter service.
