Looking for VTM-4 Fluid Change posting? - Honda Pilot

arguille · 08-03-2009, 03:27 PM

I remember 15k on my 2005 pilot ago that there was a posting on How to drain and fill the VTM4 fluid. Can somebody please send me the link to that posting?

I remember using it at my 15k service interval. Now I am at 30k and need to use it again.

Thanks.

Thanks ED27 and Tim. This is what I am looking for. I already have the hand pump and a little leftover fluid from the last time I did this. Let see how much the dealership will charge me for the VTM4 fluid.

Thanks again.

Google Honda VTM-4 fluid....many vendors including sponsor's web site. I've seen its as low as $21.00 + shipping or 26.00 with shipping for the gallon containier, crush washers are extra ($1.50 =/-). Dealer's in this market area are somewhere north of the 35.00 range for parts counter sales.

One local dealer had it for $42 a gallon, and another had it for $32 a gallon. What's a guy to do???

I bought online at Handa accessories for $21.90 (around 27 with shipping). I went overboard shopping cause of the good deals they have. In the end, I spent a total of $70, with oil filter, washers, oil plug, cabin filter, coolant and many more for $70 bucks and no tax.

This is why the dealers parts dept are losing customers. They are so arrogant with pricing.

next project = brake pads replacement.
