Honda does not recommend (if fact they advise against) using another AFT fluid. The Honda CVTF fluid was specifically formulated for our car and is matched to the pressure and lubrication requirements of the HCH-II CVT. Using another (non-approved) type would not only affect the shift quality but it may also affect the heat management, longevity of the solenoids, valves, belt and even the sensors.
Generally a bad idea to use anything else.
