that was a BS response. I bet they will just retap it then charge you for a new casing.

You just need to get your ass down there and get your car to another dealer!

 

Oh no he's getting the old one to sell.

 

The part of the housing that has the fill hole in it is just a "cap". You don't need a complete diff casing to fix this. All the gears and LSD and bearings and "stuff" is in the "other" part. You are getting reemed.
As a "fill" bolt, you don't even need much torque to hold the thing. I realize it's too late now, but you could have put in a thread chaser, cleaned up the threads a bit, put on a new washer and screwed the bolt back in with 1/2 the recommended torque. It's the washer that keeps the oil from falling out the fill hole anyway.
Future lesson: Screw in the bolt as tight as you can with your bare hands (well, fingers), put a box end wrench on the bolt head and crank it 1/16th to 1/8th turn more and leave it alone.

QuickSteel Usage

QUIKSTEEL can be used to rebuild, reshape, and repair almost any type surface including steel, iron, copper, brass, bronze, silver, aluminum, exotic metals found in racing bicycles, wood, glass, ceramic, fiberglass, boron, fiber-epoxy products, masonry, concrete, and many types of plastic.

QUIKSTEEL's high temperature rating of 500&degF (260&degC) continuous and 550&degF (288&degC) intermittent temperature range provides numerous additional applications where high heat is involved.

Because it is a putty, the repair can be made in vertical or horizontal position, overhead, etc. QUIKSTEEL does not run or drip and sets-up in five minutes. QUIKSTEEL hardens like steel in 15 minutes, and fully cures in one hour.

Because QUIKSTEEL has a hardness more than twice the hardness of pine wood, you can process QUIKSTEEL any way you can process steel or wood. You can turn it on a lathe, shape, mill, machine, drill, tap, sand, and paint.

QUIKSTEEL is impervious to chemicals, solvents, oil, and acids, including battery acid and can be used to repair batteries. QUIKSTEEL can be used to make repairs under water or within fuels or solvents.

Dude is not listening anymore. This thread has come to an end along with this mans cash....

 

Yeah I thanks for all the help, we've already been committed for the service, to do it. My mom who is the main owner of the car, I'm paying it off etc. but she's the full controller of it till i finish college, well she's a teacher doesn't have time for fighting this with the BBB or whatever, I don't know if I could get my dad involved, their divorced. I have already called the dealership and talked to them, they have said they can't do it, the technician says that it's not safe to do. They have already ordered the part, this is the only Honda dealership in town, next one is in San Antonio which is about 190 miles away. I might give a Honda Dealership in San Antonio a call, I dunno I'm dealing with a tricky situation with warrenty and such, I'm trying to see what I can do, luckily we can pay the bill. I'm going to ask for the old casing back just to make sure they do not keep it and reuse it. I'm going to continue to see what I can do.
