biggest issue with those trans is heat. i put a cooler on my 03 odyssey and keeps the z-1 nice and red. shifts fine. that said my next fluid change is with maxlife. have 3 jugs waiting.
So the dealer is using maybe $20 in their cost of fluid. The technician can pop the drain plug and fill it back up is probably less than 10 minutes. Not a bad profit if you ask me.
