Also had a front driver side wheel bearing that was bad and it was replaced. $1200 was the total price for this Differential. This was my fault. For the last 20 years I’ve had front wheel drive automobiles. We bought this 4 wheel drive pilot and it slipped my mind that I need to replace the differential fluid. I maintain all my cars. Changing fluids brakes and filters. The major stuff which requires special tools and tricks of the trade I hire out. I did look through the owners manual and it did not have a maint schedule. If I would have seen that it may have triggered my mind to change the differential fluid. Honda recommends changing the differential after the first 15000 miles and then every 30000 after that. Well I didn’t change it until 90000. Oops. That cost me. A used differential will cost me $850 parts and labor at this great shop in Charlotte. A new one from Honda cost $4200. Well lesson learned. Won’t do that again. | ||
