Mileage

Hey guys i have an 01' EX and I just hit 80k miles recently and i was just wondering if there is anything i should be worrying about since my mileage is getting high. Its an Auto and I drive it very lightly, barely going over 3500 RPM's when driving. The only problems I have had so far are my alternator going bad and I am getting my Airbag clock spring replaced tomorrow because it has worn out and is the cause of my SRS light being on. I change the oil and filter every 3k miles. SO anything else to worry about?

what would be the cost of a timing belt, valve adjustment, and spark plugs; also an estimate on labor costs too if possible.

for a shop to do the timing belt anywhre between $200-$700. honda charges about $500 for a timing belt, water pump and cam and crank seals. at least the one in houston did. Vlave adjustment not to sure. and spark plugs can be done on your own, it is farely simple to do.
