I found out from someone on Hondasuv.com that Carquest has started selling actual Honda AFT-Z1 automatic transmission fluid. Apparently the Carquest company bought another company named WPC which was an import parts warehouse. And one of their many products stored there is true Honda ATF-Z1. I went down yesterday and gave the local Carquest guys the product # which is 'WPC Z800188443OES' and they ordered a case and sure enough it is the actual bottles from Honda. My cost was $5.75 per quart which undercuts my nearest honda place by more than $2 per quart. I also now only have to drive 2 miles instead of 45 miles. Very cool for me.
