PHDTS

The signature feature of your profile automatically includes "65psi" and "Im not as drunk as U think I am" at the bottom of every post you make. So you dont have to type it out every time

You can sign up on the Honda Owner's Web Site. It's run by Honda. You just put in the VIN, and the site allows you to keep maintenance logs. It also give you recall information and other misc. data. It's a really nice site.

The others pretty well said it, but the good news is that at 100K, your Honda is just getting broken in!

Replaced break pads, shoe, tires and CV boots. Bleed brake fluid, what does that mean? Also, transmission flush, radiator flush? Are you talking about drain them then fill it back up w/ fresh ones. Is it hard to do the transmission flush all that stuff? Anyway, i had somebody to replaced the cv boots coz i didn't think i can do it myself. One more thing, where is the fuel filter located anyway? I really appreciate your help. Thank you very much!

This should be your top priority, timing belt. It's an expensive service but necessary.
Also, inspect your belts, plug wires, distributor cap, battery connections. Much of what has been mentioned is usually done at 90k. Was your car properly maintained by the previous owner(s)?
