Tranny Fluid

Plan on changeing the tranny fluid soon.
Wonder if anyone knows of any CHEAP websites, I can pick it up from?
So far I found it for 8$ each. (oem only)

try a local import car parts store or honda dealership-
but 7-8 bucks per qt is the going rate
They make it from oil- and you know how that price has been skyrocketing

Do not use anything but honda zr1 fluid-

I dont know about the 3.2 but the 2.5TL does not have a transmission filter you just drain the fluid and add new fluid. There is a screen in the tranny but to change it you need to drop the tranny and it is not necessary to change that out.

The guy at Honda who changed my transmission fluid said the filter is "internal" so he didn't change it. Was he just a lazy ass then?
