15k mile service question - Click HERE for Original Thread
kevm
hello all. My 2006 pilot goes in for 15k service on Wednesday. The dealer quoted 165.00. I have had the oil changed at 5 and 10k already. I ahve been told by the dealer that the Pilot is on a 5k cycle for oil changes and maintenance activities.
When I asked about the cost, the dealer said that it needs a fluid change at 15k. I think he said the differential fluid (VTM4).
My wife called me a few minutes ago and said that a wrench light came on and the number 1 and oil life 15 percent.
When I looked up maintenance minder 1, all it says is tire rotation.
I dont know if she is giving me the correct information on the display, but assuming she is, what is the justification for changing the fluid at 15k?. I have never heard of changing it that early. I also assume that the wrench light is just because of the maitenance indicator?
Any advice appriciated. Thanks in advance

Prior to the Maintenance Minder in the '06, the recommended schedule for the 1st VTM-4 change for the '03-05 Pilot was 7500 miles for severe service, or 15000 miles for normal service.

Thanks. And the wrench light is on because of the reminder?
