The use of any transmission fluid other than what is recommended for this transaxle will cause transaxle damage. Refer to the material specification for the correct fluid. The transmission fluid should be changed every 96,560 km (60,000 mi) regardless of normal or special operating conditions. | |
| NOTICE: The transmission fluid used for the FNR5 and the 6-speed transaxles are unique. Do not use water-based cleaners to clean or flush the transmission fluid cooler tubes or transmission damage will occur.
