maintenance
i had the 7500 mile service done at the dealership while i changed the differential fluid also. im nearly reaching 14000 miles and every time i start up the car, i see the maintenence required sign flash which means sooner or later its going to be constantly on soon. why is this coming up at 14k? do i need to go to the dealership to get it off also?

That light comes on at a preset distance after the last reset. Unless you are actually following that schedule religiously, just reset it and ignore it. Go by your own schedule for what needs to be done.

You had to change differential fluid at 7500 mile? Is that normal?

a lot of owners change the diff fluid out at about 10K or 1 year for the 1st one.....esp if they are hard on their cars
oh and the dealer did use a proper diff fluid i hope......

Anyone who has been around this site for a while, knows that it is wise to dump that first fluid within the first few thousand miles. The same goes for after a final drive gear change. This is one area which some of us feel that Honda has made a terrible oversight. Of course, it's your car and if something should break, I'm sure Honda will cover your diff. (Or will they? )
