Good Lord. Welcome to the OdyClub. Had this not been your first thread/post, I'd have closed it. You are lucky. :D

Oil viscosity and ATF threads never end well here for the most part.
 
There was a discussion early on about this. At that time, Amsoil ATF was not certified for the 10 speed. Not sure if that has changed as this discussion was a couple or more years ago.
 
So I called Amsoil before ordering and they recommended me to get the Amsoil Multi-vehicle ATF. When it arrived today it said Honda ATF-Z1 in the back. So I'm not sure what to do
It was the same in the prior debate but I let this one go on as it has been more than a couple years. Amsoil still has not changed. There is nothing to be unsure about. While you may LOVE Amsoil, it is NOT for your 10 speed. Return it.
 
I'm glad you didn't close it. (y)
Nice decision.

Its not closed because we only have had one or two prior Amsoil ATF threads for this gen. NOT beat to death topics like DW-1 v/s MaxLife or VCM. There is logic to my decision making.
 
What if you used the cheapest or the most expensive lubricant you could find and it "didn't dissapoint". Because your engine/transmission is still working does not prove the lubricant is OK. Can we simply use what's called out in the owners manual-- and link to the specs called out there to what's on the container of whatever you buy. Lets stop this endless go nowhere discussion.
Huh? Did you read all the replies to the first post?
