Yep, that's it. You might want to try calling some Chevy dealers in your area. Their prices might be competitive. The capacity is 2.3 quarts, so you'd have to order 3 and same the rest for next time.

11.38 each here. This is the place I ordered a case from years ago.

Just bought mine locally at about $11/qt. and didn't have to wait to ship. Make sure you get replacement washers as well. minimal cost at Acura dealership parts. Good luck!
I'm doing mine this weekend and I do have problems with 3rd. Looking forward to seeing the results.

Good idea replacing the fluid. I swear by this stuff.


IIRC it can be anywhere from 15-24$ a qt at the dealer. When they told me I had to ask again, "24--whaaaat?" Lol. I asked them if they could price match to online at $11, and they came down to $13/qt. saved me shipping and I picked it up the same day.
