Well you said almost certain. That may get you a conviction in New York. In most cases it’s called reasonable doubt. Honda sprays and cleans everything. If they change the filter and replaced the fluid from the pan drop. Your fluid will be diluted at best. And probably still dark.

Not a problem. I just didn't want to ramble on about how to make the job easier if you weren't interested. Just being cautious.

I am new here, my 2018 power train is up on June 27th, truck only has a little over 9k on the clock. I noticed the transmission was surging, and would shift harshly when I was in Arizona last week. I don't drive it much, didn't notice anything until it was over 110 outside, and I live in a cooler climate. I found this thread, found and printed out the TSB, took it to the dealer. The dealer told me they can't duplicate the issue, primarily because it doesn't get hot enough here, so they won't replace the TBV, they said there has to be other transmission issues before they will replace it, they don't replace them individually. It isn't the cost of buying it myself, or installing it, it's still under warranty, and with my son living in Phoenix, I will be driving in hot weather. Why does GM have to be so difficult?
