I'm a new owner

=>=>=>=>=> I've decided to join the Honda hype. I just purchased an 05 Civic Si, roughly 110,900 mi. I'm excited to start personalizing this car. But can anyone recommend maintenance I should start since the car is now in my hands? Thanks in advance for your input!

Welcome!!

If the timing belt was not done then I would do that ASAP!!

Plugs could be done if they have not been. Clean air filter. Oil change never hurts. Drain and fill of transmission fluid.

Re: I'm a new owner

Something a lot of buyers forget is to clean the interior. If you bought it from a stranger, you have no idea how they treated the car. Mine was quite clean when I bought it, but one day when I was taking out the radio, I found a used pregnancy test stick between the seats x.x

Re: I'm a new owner

Yea I would do a total interior detail as well as just a regular maintence tune up. Oil change, fluid check, and GL with the new car.
