Rep Power: 0 Maintenance at 117K
I've started dating a girl who has a 2001 Honda Civic EX. As I've exhausted all the projects on my vehicle (79 Jeep) I thought I'd take my OCD car maintenance quirk and unleash it on her car. All she's ever done to it is change the oil every 4K. I don't know much about Honda's and there's a lot more electronics than I'm used to......but I think I can manage. Anyone have any suggestions on where I should start ie. prioirities? I've changed oil/oil filter/ air filter/ spark plugs/ and the trans fluid....... what's next? Thanks for the help.

wow really? i would not let my timing belt go to 170k. i did mine at 100k. anyway u may wanna look at struts ,shocks, springs, ball joints, motor mount bushings, an other suspension bushings, um timing belt, acc belts, rad flush , minor gaskets like the valve cover gaskets an spark plugs gaskets which r located on the under side of the valve cover where the ignition coils go threw, maybe a nu battery, check the exhaust for leaks. i thinks thats it. good luck dude.
