| Honda dealers sell the same product (for the Pilot), if that would solve the problem. Not sure about Tim, but some mail order places don't sell liquids that way due to shipping problems and high weight. |

You can get it @ any autoparts store or even @ Costco.
If you're gonna use conventional (dino) oil, check out Saturday/Sunday SF Chron for Kragen's sale coupons. Every week is a different brand for under a buck a quart.
Costco has Mobil 1 for $4/qt, which is the best I've seen. Random sightings of M1 at Walmart in a 5qt jug for $18.
You can get the filters from Tim or from a local Honda dealer. Tim'll be cheaper w/free shipping and no tax. He doesn't ship fluids, so I'd suggest getting the VTM4 and Tranny fluid (when you get that far) @ Honda -- our local Honda dealer (Walnut Creek) is about 1/3 less on parts than Acura (Concord). |

| Unfortunately I can't ship the stuff......there's just no way I've found to be able to ship liquids without shipping damage :( |

You do realize that Tim is a "dealer"... still, a nice guy- :)
And the ONLY place to buy "Acura" parts (including VTM4 fluid) is FROM and Acura dealer! (Of course as previously mentioned certain parts are also available from Honda dealers)
There are some websites that sell Acura and Honda parts- near as I can tell they buy from a dealer at discount, then resell. |
