Source for Honda Service Bulletins?

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could obtain all of Honda's service bulletins?

I Went to http://www.hondalac.com/service/Bulletins but it is a password protected site. Does anyone know how to gain access to this or is there another source that provides the same information?

If you don't mind paying ridiciously high prices you can get them from the source: Helms.

See http://www.helminc.com

You can get them here.

Prices are
$20 for a 3-day subscription
$50 for a 30-day subscription (automatic renewal)
$500 for an annual subscription

I've never used the site, but I saw it on www.odyclub.com

phareous,

Thanks for the tip. I checked their site out and wouldn't you know, they don't have the TSB's for 1995 Civics. They have 1994 and 1996 but not 1995.

Go figure?

Strange....I have a 98 Accord and I bought the service manual (great) and the electrical manual (less useful). I always wondered what was in the service bulletins and supplements on their site but I'm not going to pay several hundred to find out

Hey Nikon you might want to hold off on using serviceexpress. I signed up for a 3 day subscription. Well I was going through downloading stuff to read later and within an hour my account was suspended. I checked the terms and conditions and nothing about limits on anything. Also they asked for my "tax id" which I figured was my social security number...I didn't give it. It may have been suspended due to that too. Anyways I am going to try to talk to them today and see what the deal is...worst case I'll just dispute it with my credit card company.

Just adding a note here for other owners...there is a great service at http://www.alldata.com/products/diy/ which is twenty something a year. It does not cover 2003 yet, and it does not cover Accura, Honda, or BMW (at those manufacturer's request).

phareous,

Thanks for the follow-up. I found alldata and thought they would be a great source and discovered, as you have pointed out, that Honda doesn't supply this to them.

Ok so it turns out they didn't like me downloading so much They only want people to print (not save) and only then a small amount. If they had said this up front I would have been happy to comply (but they didn't). So anyways...they turned it back on which is good as I was going to write my credit card company if they didn't and get me a nice refund.
