60,000 Miles!!
Hey guys, I just hit 60,000 miles. I never went had any maintence done beside the usual oil change every 3000 miles. I did replace sparks plug at 45, 000 and had transmission fluid changed at 45,000 as well. What kind of maintence should be done at 60,000 miles?

Rep Power: 0 I am right behind you with 59,000. I already changed the plugs and I cleaned & oiled my K&N filter.
I plan on changing the Brake fliud/clutch fluid, Manual trans oil, Cabin filter, and regualr Oil change. (myself)
Also throwing on some Energy Suspension control arm bushings (mine are shot). Needless to say this is going to be a very busy Saturday.
Timing belt and water-pump don't need to be changed until 100,000 or more.
If you have not at 45,000 you might want to get a valve ajustment.

Rep Power: 0 Actually I was wrong about replacing the fuel filter. 
Did you guys know that our cars have lifetime fuel filters.
I went to the local Honda Parts Dealer on Saturday to try to pick one up and they told me you never have to replace it unless you have to flush the fuel system for bad gas. Oh well saved me some $$
Just thought I would share this info if anyone was wondering.

Hmm... I'm @ 56800(Just this morning) so I will be there soon...
how much does all that stuff cost? I'm probably going to need a new set of windshield wipers and a new air freshener too...
