Ok i'm almost to the 36k mark on my car & theres no way I can afford $300 for a tune up. So I was wondering what the most necessary things I should do before 36k. Tomorrow i'm going to do the brakes, spark plugs, air filter, oil change, check fluid level, tire pressure & a good ole car wash. While im at is there anything else that yall would recommend?? The dealer keeps trying to push all this expensive stuff on me & giving me these BS horror stories & I dont have any reason to trust anything they say, i'd rather ask people who I can trust & dont just want my money.

Also while im at it, what is a good spark plugs at a decent price?? Bosch Platinums, Denso Iridiums?? these are just some that ive heard of...

P.S. I tried searching, but ive been up for 2 days straight & its wasnt working too well so I figured a lazy post wouldnt hurt yall too much

you basically named all the maintence needed

(1) Oil change
(2) Intake Filter change
(3) Cabin Filter change
(4) Bleed Brakes Fluids
(5) Change Brake Pads (if necessary)
(6) Tire Pressure Check
(7) Spark Plugs (Denso Iridiums are very good)
(8) Rotate Tires
(9) Check power steering fluid, windshield washer,


honestly i can't think of any more than that

get a service chart from the honda dealer, it tells u what u need to replace and stuff.....for instance that 30k mile service is 3 bills, just bring that chart to ur local auto supply store and there! u saved 250bux

Don't forget tranny fluid if you have an auto. NGK iridiums are cheaper that densos and work better I think.

Oh yea, how hard is it to do our brakes?? They should be pretty simple right, just like any other car right?
