need advice on service for accord lx 2001
Hello,
My accord just hit 3 years and has 30K miles on it. I've had the oil changes done every 3 mos and recently had front brake pads replaced as well as air filter. What would you say are the most important 30K tasks to get done? I haven't done a coolant flush & refill done. Is this as important at this point? What about tranny oil and brake fluids? Please advice on the most important tasks for this car at this mileage. Thanks |

Do you have the Accord's owner's manual? It should have come with this car if
you bought it new. There's a spreadsheet in these that shows the time and miles at which certain items should be done.

You should not need plugs as they are platinum. Surprised you have had to change brake pads -- my 01 Prelude is still on the originals at 51k miles and good for while longer. |
