    Hi, goldnsx.

    That looked to be the same as the OEM one that you can buy in Japan.

    If you scroll down a bit, you will see the same label.

    In UK, the label is different.

    Not sure this is the same in your country but here in UK, it's much cheaper to take your own container to the Honda dealer and ask them to spare the required amount from their large tank.
    I never saw any debris using this method but you can use the funnel or tube with the meshed filter attached.

    NSX gbox relies on the oil pump for its lubrication and it's driven by the final driven gear on the DF so unless you rotate the rear wheel, the MTF won't start circulating.
    Because of the way it's driven and being as the trochoid pump, there is very fine meshed metal filter at the pump so fairly well protected.

    Thanks Kaz!

    The supplier in Germany is known for importing oils and coolant from cheaper continents. As they are less expensive in other countries the chance of getting a FAKE product is smaller. So he might imports the MTF from Japan.

    Our dealers here are 'innovative': if you bring them your own container they fill it from the large tank and charge you as if they've sold you individual 1l-bottles. Plus the extra amount of bigger debris I once had when the big tank was almost empty.
