Default 30,000 Mile service

Thanks hondapilot.com. I just did this maintaniance myself with the help of all the DIY. I did:

transmission drain and fill
transfer case drain and fill
VTM-4 drain and fill
air filter
pollen filter

The dealer wanted 540 for all of it, I got the parts for 120 and spend about 3 relaxed hours doing it myself

Well done!

Nice knowing the job was done right, you learned a bit more about your Pilot.

Just last week, I replaced all 4 brake pads for $73. It was a leisurely project and I'm guessing I saved about $300 doing it myself. My best guess is that $200 per axle is the going rate, including turning of the discs if necessary.

The Autozone pads that I bought are ceramic and so far have far, far less brake dust than OEM.

Again, good job on doing your own 30k service and welcome to hp.org

BTW- Just replaced an "impeller" in my boat yesterday. Dealer wanted $275 and I bought $50 in parts and tackled it myself.
