Its kinda up in the air. I've had a failure with a customers 2002 honda civic that had dark fluid. I changed it with OEM Honda fluid and the tranny started to slip after that.

I could kinda give you a theory why this happens but I dont want to look foolish if im wrong.

damn 120k no problems. How long have you owned the car years and miles?

If I were you, I would do a drain and fill as soon as possible with Honda ATF-Z1. I'd probably do 2-3 of the drain and fills actually. Do the first one, drive for about 100 miles, then do another one.
