Manual says 30k. 15k is better for most fluids though.

The problem with that is the car is supposed to be level when you fill the transmission. If the car is tilting you may not be able to adequately fill it, which can cause premature part wear.I'm not sure if over filling could be a problem as well.

I think a Honda dealer will charge about 90 bucks for fluid and labor.
