Is the 20,000 mile checkup worth the money?

Just wanted to know if you guys went to your 20,000 mile checkup. I just got a notice from my local dealer. I called and they said it will cost about $96 for the inspection.

Is it worth it?

I didnt do it all i did was my 15000 mile checkup i think. im at 34000 miles with no extended warrenty so i might have them do the closest checkup so if anything is messed up they can fix it before my warrenty is up.

Forget the 20k service, unless you've been having specific problems with your car. It's basically just an oil change and tire rotation.

is there anything that should be done for 11,000+ miles, i need an oil change and i would say its time for a tire rotation, but beyond that is there anything that i should do?

Exactly, skip the 20k service from the dealership

check with your local Honda dealer, cuz every dealer has the diff. 30k plan, but basically just check here, there, or any leak stuff. plus another oil change~
