I am driving a Canadian version 2018 Honda Odyssey Touring with the 10 speed transmission [I think]. It has 125K miles on it. I have tried to get my transmission fluid changed at a couple of places in the town I live and they say no-go. The Honda dealer in town is incompetent and seriously overpriced. Being in 2024 now, I was wondering is there is a name brand ATF Type 2 oil for sale that is non-Honda? Jiffy Lube and a few other places won't touch doing this service. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

There is a reason for that. Use anything but Honda fluid and the customers come back complaining how bad the car now shifts.
Can't find a service bulletin on how to service the 10 speed but here's an article on how to tackle one:

Stick w/ OEM fluid
Did the minder come on and tell you to change it yet? 
What is the model # of the transmission?

I have no idea what the model number of the transmission is on this vehicle. How would I find that information?
I've used Honda and Idemitsu in those cars. Idemitsu used to be a decent price on Amazon.
I think my last purchase was Honda DW-1 from Ebay.

It's marked on the structural rib of the transmission - or possibly via the VIN, google for a VIN decoder.
