Every 30K you should have this done:

Valve adjustment
Air filter
Rotor button
Spark Plugs (unless platinum)
Valvecover Gasket
Spark plug tube seals
Flush and fill radiator
Flush and fill transmission
Lube doors and windows tracks with Honda Siliocon Spray

I say you can probably do all of that stuff on that list easily with the exception of the valve adjustment and maybe draning the fluids at home.

Of course oil changes and tires rotations might fall right there too, but of course you preobably know when to do those.

true, just ask them for that sheet with all the "recommeneded" services and go what you can yourself.

...or you guys could simply read my reply since I work at a shop that does this all day every day.



Valve adjustment pricing ranges from $60.00-$130.00 depending on where you take the car.

You replace the valvecover gasket and plug seals when you adjust the valves too.
