So they either threw the bottles in the trash or as they said in the drain rack so your bottles had not left the site yet so where did they put them? I could see them not doing the service behind the curtain if it was their product but using yours and not possibly doing it makes no sense. I might have a discussion with the manager to do it again with their stuff?
On a side note similar thing happened to me years ago I took my car into a retail auto place for a coolant flush/change. I watched from the observation window as the tech pulled the car into the bay, opened the hood and proceeded to suck out the overflow tank and then added new coolant to the reservoir, put the hood down and pulled the car out, done. I was in total disbelief as they never opened the radiator. |

Binging your own fluids
I use Sumter Tire. I bring my own fluids and they always return the partial empty container without asking. I hate to recommend them because they have gotten so busy it increases my wait times. But they are as honest as I have found.

Dealers rob us and those quick lube places can not be trusted. Best to find a local shop you can trust.

Honda doesn't manufacture any lubrication products. Valvoline, however is one of the BEST oils or grease that your money can buy. The techs may be stupid, but if they used Valvoline, I don't think you need to worry.

Do you find one location better than the other? |
Dealers often don’t use factory fluids. They will use a ‘rated’ fluid. My old local dealer used a generic 55gallon drum of engine oil that met the requirements.
