What did they charge you to change out the fluid?
Quoted $100. I did some searches and couldn't find any thing related to HRV. But a lot of youtube info on the CRV. The job doesn't seems to be any difficult than changing the oil. My car is still at the shop. I don't know how easy it is to access both the fill plug and drain plug?What did they charge you to change out the fluid?
Just asked my friend who is a service rep for Honda after I saw the service minder when resetting the oil % after I did a 15,000 mile change. He said the first change is at 15K to get rid of any metal fillings. Would rather change it myself.I heard it from the service rep (FWIW). First change at 15K miles and then every 30K miles. One can probably go at least 20K miles for the first change. I still have 30% oil life left. I would not have seen the code until I change my oil around 20K miles.
The rear diff uses two different size plug crush washers, I ordered them from College Hills Honda Parts.any chance one for those service reps can pull part numbers for the washers?
