Regular maintenance is most important to your car. the honda's engine can is very strong. one of my frined has his accord go over 220k. some other stuff like trans may have problem b4 your enigine.

Do a major service every 30k ,,, make sure t-belt is in good shape. change oil + filter every 3k ,and if u notice something going bad do not ignore it , have it taken care of ASAP ...or the phrase pay me a little now or a lot later will come into affect ,have all the hoses checked, replace every one if when u squeeze them u hear a cracking sound , fix oil leaks if any .

The t-belt thing is in there. It doesn't show up until atleast 60,000 miles for severe and 90,000 or so for normal conditions. What website did you go to?

That would be a good website to save under favorites
Let me know if you run into it again.
