Jokes aside we still did not talk about the second part of
the question: about the myth related to the claims about
"beneficial particles in the old tranny fluid which
suppose to help transmission to work better than with
the new fluid", anybody with opinion on this matter ?

Me too. I just changed mine a few weeks ago but I'm heading over to In-
N-Out Lube this afternoon to get it flushed. That flushing machine has
the word "PRO" on it in big letters so it must be good. I'm going to
have them fill it with Marvel Mystery Oil instead of Z1 because some
guy on Yahoo said it works better. He posted that he worked for Honda
R&D and I believe him.

I am starting to see faint signs of thinking in your posts....
Finally I was able to drive my arguments through, I guess :-)

Trade it ASAP to a dealer who thinks he's ripping you off.

Funny comment. IMO they said that to be sure your transmission grinds
itself to death.
