    Could be a bad gasket, they should change it.

    Is there another dealer in the area that you could go to for a second opinion?

    If I were you I would find a decent dealer and ask for the Service Manager or owner and get a Honda rep involved...Sure looks like a gasket leak or a something very rare with the Honda flat-six...One of the posted pictures shows what appears to be some kind of damage to the underside of the motor??..Is this a possible cause???

    Hmm; yeah that doesn't look good. It almost looks like a casting defect.

    Bad Casting

    It very well could be a bad casting which caused the leak in the first place, He need a second opinion and a Honda Rep to get involved. Should be a warranty issue for sure.... Hopefully that is what it is.....

    His current dealer should be kicked to the curb; there are MUCH better Honda dealers out there who are actually interested in EARNING your business.

    Besides, putting in a call to Honda to ask about this doesn't cost a dime to the dealer... and neither will the repair if Honda approves the work. The beauty of owning a Honda is that we don't have to put up with lousy dealers.
