Do you want to determine which transmission is installed on your Honda? Check the list below to see what transmission is used on your Honda.

At a Glance

  • Honda transmission codes (such as BCLA or B90A) are stamped on a label or plate on the case.
  • The same model uses different transmissions by year, engine and market; confirm by code or VIN.
  • Most conventional Honda automatics use ATF DW 1; CVTs use HCF 2.
  • Many Honda automatics have no dipstick; the level is checked at a check bolt.

Having Honda Transmission Problems?

Harsh shifts, slipping, shudder or a transmission warning light usually leave fault codes in the transmission control module. Read them with the YOUCANIC UCAN-II Pro on supported models before buying parts, then see our guides to common Honda transmission problems and reading and clearing Honda fault codes.

Check these troubleshooting and repair guides for more help on your Honda.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know which transmission my Honda has?

Check the label or stamped code on the transmission case, or have a Honda parts counter look it up by VIN.

Can the same Honda model have different transmissions?

Yes. It depends on the year, engine, drivetrain and market, so confirm the code before buying parts or fluid.

Which fluid does my Honda transmission use?

Most conventional Honda automatics use Honda ATF DW 1, and CVTs use Honda HCF 2. Always confirm in your owner’s manual.
