Uh no, any sort of oil additive is a waste of money. It is tranny death to use anything other than Genuine Honda ATF. People have had their trannies go very very quick because they had the tranny fluid replaced with non Honda ATF.

The only thing you can do to prolong the life of the tranny is to avoid throttle induced downshifts and buy a tranny cooler.
