My Lancer clocked 353k km cvt with oil change every 25k KM or so that comes with external trans cooler. I believed all auto trans should have this cooler and hope fe adapter will be available soon
Actually the adapter is already available, SABER Honda 1.5T CVTF cooler. Same fitting across Honda 1.5T.

That's the usual logic lol Thanks for the kind words. Speaking of that i also need to work on adding a sample from a poster contribution to the first page
Nowadays the fees of sending oil samples also skyrocketed I believe?

Sorry guys I cannot remember the code for proper YT embed.
Anyway this is a good video, you can see the first level root cause.
But, NO, I personally don't agree that the cause is a "lack of grease" is the cause. It is actually an effect of the issue. Meaning to say the stickiness, I speculate CAUSES the grease to lack and squeeze away from the mesh.
If its was so simple as lack of grease that Honda try to say, I assure you Honda can just rework 100% of the gear boxes with plenty of grease and it WOULD NOT have been an issue from 2016 FC to 2024 FE, CR-V, HR-V, Accord for the last decade.
Can't play the video.
By the way, as of now at least adding extra grease does help.
