Hi,
I didn't change the fluid myself but it was supposed to be
Honda fluid according to the mechanic.
The timing belt was supposedly changed by the previous owner
but again no way of verifying that.

The car odometer reads slightly more than 90k miles,
so I presume it is *at least* that much! (you never know...)

Any more ideas how this could be fixed?
It does not bother me that much, but I suppose it would
feel better if the rpms were higher...
