Just came back from the dealer and the inner diff seal is defective. That blows only 220 miles on the car. They will have it fixed Monday and they do use the correct diff fluid.

which seal? i hope it's not the pinion seal, because that means they have to do an entire gear install. most honda dealerships won't have techs that know how to do this. :/ if it's one of the driveshaft seals then you're good to go.

It is the inner seal where the axle connects to the diff. Must have been bad from day one the car only has 220 miles. It goes in tomorrow to be fixed and have my front lip spoiler installed. I will double check on the fluid again.

yeah that's an easy one to replace. toughest part about that is taking the diff out of the car.
