Hi everyone,
I bought the van one year ago. The previous owner had all the
records and the van was always serviced at the dealer. ATF
was changed about every 30k(sump only). I was aware of the
poor history of the Odyssey transmission, and did a 4X fluid
change when I bought the van. Sent an oil sample to the NAPA
lab, and got a "severe" warning.
Thanks for your advice and comments!
