Help!

I purchased VTM differential washer from http://www.hondacuraworld.com/Merch...ategory_Code=CC
and it says there that the VTM differential washers are in 2 different sizes.

When I received the order, I found out that both washers are the same size. I called the vendor, and he said that for 2005 MDX the washers are the same size.

Is this correct?:confused:

I don't want to drain out the fluid and find out that they both are not the same size.

Thanks!

I have an 03 which does have the 2 different size washers, but I've used the same size ones on numerous occassions without problems. They are very close in size so I've ordered a bunch of one size and used it exclusively and successfully on the VTM, transmission and center differential bolts.

The drain and fill plugs for the VTM-4 unit on every year of the MDX uses two different sizes.

If they are 2 different sizes, how can you use only one size? Aren't they a tight fit? Which size did you use?

I don't have the part number, but I buy them from Tim. It's the bigger of the 2 washers. I just make sure that it's on center as much as possible and tighten down. I've never had any issues with them. I just used the same washers for the differential drain plug recently also.
