Acura Scheduled Maintenance Parts

In order to run, the engine needs a precise mixture of fuel and air. When outside air is drawn into the engine, the air filter prevents harmful dirt and debris from entering the system.
The cabin air filter prevents dust, pollen, and other debris from entering the passenger compartment through the climate control (HVAC) system.
Coolant is the fluid that flows through the engine’s cooling system. Its main purpose is to transfer heat generated by the engine to the radiator so the engine doesn’t overheat.
Engine oil provides lubrication for all internal moving parts of an engine. It also helps conduct heat away from these components.
The oil drain plug gasket seals the oil drain plug where it connects to the oil pan.
The engine oil filter removes contaminants from the engine oil before it circulates throughout the engine.

Rear Differential Fluid (1 answer)
2006 Acura MDX, M.U., Chantilly, VA
2006 Acura MDX

I had a problem w/ noise and took it in to the dealer. Part of the problem was the steering system hose leaking which was covered under warranty but the other part was not replacing the rear differential fluid according to the scheduled maintenance. They had to drain it twice to stop the noise. Can i make the case that it wasn't my fault they had to drain it twice instead of just once to fix the problem? Also they want me to get the 30K miles service done for around $700...does that sound...
