No offence meant red1dr but there has been way too many MT bearing failures reported on this site. You can go to Honda-tech.com and read for hours about both the new and old Honda trans. fluid (the formula was changed a while back). I have more that once. I've also owned 5 Honda MT cars since '88. Honda MT fluid is beyond a doubt not the best trans. fluid.
I have GM SyncroMesh non friction modified/Pennzoil syncromesh in my Insight right now and it shifts into 1st gear while moving better than what ever was in it before.
This
12377916 -GM SyncroMesh Manual Transmission Fluid- Friction Modified - 12377916 is commonly considered the best Honda MT fluid.
