Correct gearbox oil grade
« on: February 16, 2025, 04:11:49 PM »
Hello.Have just bought a 2012 1.4 honda fit hybrid. Please can anyone recommend the correct oil for the gearbox and is there a filter that also needs to be changed. Many thanks in advance for any help provided.

I had it changed at the honda garage and they use honda genuine oil. But if you search the forum there's a post from someone suggesting a certain type from Total I believe.

The gearbox has both an internal and external filter. Both are only replaced by Honda after driving 200k KM .

Probably a bit late, but at least I had in record for the next person needed it:

The gearbox oil for pre 2015 hybrid is Honda CVT-F.  Same as the none-hybrid CVT model.
Cheapest alternative is WestWay CVT-F Fluid.

The Hybrid version also has an External gearbox oil filter that you can replace.  It is located at the front of the gearbox between the gearbox and car radiator. https://www.autodoc.co.uk/febi-bilstein/15490552
Just open up the bonnet, look directly down between the gearbox and radiator and you'll see it.
