Transmssion fluid...

Hi
I believe Honda manual transmissions take a special fluid. Where's the best/least expensive place to purchase??
thanks

Local Honda dealer is the only bet, I think. The online places wouldn't be worth it for the shipping you have to pay.

CurryAcuraParts.com offers free ground shipping--even for fluids--to the lower 48. I haven’t personally used them yet, but several of the folks at the Ridgeline forum give great reviews.

For 2 quarts of fluid, just drive to any dealer and pay their price.
Shipping isn't worth it.

I heard some places won't ship liquids.
