Yes, you can put 10w40 in your transmission. Acura states in their owner's manual that motor oil can be used to fill the transmission. BUT... this would only be a stop gap measure. Honda and Acura prefer that you use their MTF (manual transmission fluid). Adding motor oil to the transmission will not damage it, however, shifting may be noticeably stiffer, and the motor oil will have to be changed more frequently. Honda MTF is especially formulated to last longer, and work more smoothly with this specific application. A quart bottle of the stuff costs about $6 at your local Honda dealer... DON'T buy it at an Acura dealership, for some reason it cost three dollars more for the exact same stuff with a different label on it.
