I've had lots of clunks for a while but wondered what else I should have done so I can get another 200K out of it (already replaced the tranny at 200K). Here is my list for quotes so far:
1. Replace timing belt, tensioner (and spring) and water pump. Verify as well as possible that front crank and cam seals are OK.
2. Adjust valve clearance.
3. Replace AC condenser & verify proper AC operation. (Doesn't cool well and condenser heat sink fins are either missing are squashed shut)
4. Replace front rotors. (There's some "throbbing" while braking and I've read these aren't very heavy duty)
5. Replace rear wheel cylinders (unless they aren’t seeping as I was told a couple years ago since I’ve never seen evidence of that).
6. Replace all brake fluid with ONLY Honda DOT3/4.
7. Replace all motor and transmission mounts.
8. Verify all wheel bearings are in spec.
9. I believe pretty much all the front suspension bushings need replacement.
10. 4 wheel alignment.

Anything I may have missed?

 

I'd personally only do 1 and 2 and 6. Fix everything else as it comes.

I might also add a radiator flush.

 

Well, #3 is needed since it doesn't cool worth a darn.

And at least part of 7 and 9 - I don't know specifically which ones are bad but I'm thinking at over 200K they all need it.

4 was largely because I'll be doing another road trip in the mountains and the pulsating is noticeably worse when having to brake a lot, of course. They were resurfaced when the pads were replaced a couple years back, but it's clear they are warped.

I also don't know that I'll have the money when something may come up later but I do now so thought I'd be proactive on some critical stuff.

 

Try a condenser comb and use a water hose to clean out the bug carcasses. If you get no joy, then performace test the A/C system with a manifold gauge set and the procedure described in the service manual. Also verify that the condenser fan runs.

Have you inspected the motor and transmission mounts? What their condition?

 

At least 1/3 of the fins are missing. The rest are beyond using a comb (and would likely get pushed out if I tried anyway)

I haven't "inspected" the mounts but do get vibrations at idle sporadically and they are a known to not last that long on modern Hondas. I'll see if I can find some photos of good and bad ones so I can compare mine.
