The car is around 160000 KILOMETERS, thats pretty damn close to 100K miles.
Sounds pretty good then. If it doesnt smell all burnt, Id change it, and then keep up with the partial fluid changes. What about other things like the water pump, and timing belt? With our interference type engines, if the belt were to snap, it could cause big time valve train damage. Thats a bill you dont want to even know about.
About the Gunk, Id stay away. Honda uses their own ATF fluid, and it works just fine. ID avoid the tranny fluid additive just like Id avoid any kind of motor oil additive.
