Where can I buy OEM power steering fluid?
Is my best bet to go to the dealer? I tried going to kragen but they only carried fluid meant for hondas, not the genuine OEM kind. Has anyone found the OEM power steering fluid somewhere besides the dealer?

You're not gonna find OEM fluid anywhere than at the dealer. If the Acura dealer is too far, stop by the local Honda dealer.

The Honda PS fluid and the Acura fluid is the same thing. The fluid at Acura dealers even comes in Honda labled bottles.

Got my OEM brake pads a few months ago from acura for 80 bucks... front and rear... Installed them myself.


Dealer was asking 400 to replace new pads...

$400! Is this normal for dealers to want to charge that much? thats ridiculous for just pads...

I'd be suprised if they didn't insist on replacing the rotors too. The trend, anymore, is that rotors are a "use once and throw away" item.
