Thanks NOOK for enlisting us

. Guess we'll have to give some input of the '11 base model FIT with a 5 speed auto that was purchased April 19th , 2011 . Their has been no issues as of yet at about 25,000 miles . Have only done D.I.Y. oil changes of 3 times with synthetic 0w-20 and Honda A02 oil filters . Have replaced the engine and cabin air filter twice . The front brakes may need to be resurfaced , expect that with all the dampness and road salt over the past few years . She drives it most of the time and it's her favorite car for the past 20 years . Will be hard to get her to part with it

. The average gas mileage since new is 37 , here's some of the records at FUELLY ,
http://www.fuelly.com/driver/cinder/fit . Also logged calculated gas mileage before Fuelly . Have read that the auto tranny fluid should be replaced every 33,000 miles or so . This was discussed at
www.bobistheoilguy.com under A.T.F. Differential , etc. . I think that the 1st generation had a timing belt . Go here for lots of info on the FIT ,
http://www.fitfreak.net/forums/ . The 1st generation FIT didn't have a C.V.T. here in the States . Good luck and let us know if you purchase the FIT and how it performs .
