Regarding the ATF fluid and Auto transmission - the older accents have picky transmissions, so servicing properly and regularly helps the transmissions life a great deal.

Regardless - in the winter time - as Jed already mentioned the ATF is a little thicker than normal.

Allow a FULL minute prior to driving to warm up the oil and ATF fluid a wee bit prior to driving. The slow shifting of the transmission is a common issue with cold fluid. Forced driving and hard shifting may cause damage in the long run.
