When did you guys do your valve adjustment (mileage reading) and when did you replace your spark plug wires? Is there a specific time that Honda/Acura recommends?

Thanks, guys!

 

Well, just had my 45,000 Mile service. This Service included the valve adjustment and i paid $103.00.

I was informed that Acura recently changed maintenance schedules. Thus , besides my routine oil change, my next scheduled maintenance will be at 60,000. The 60,000 mile service includes the change of spark plugs. It will cost $336.00, so i was told!

 

does it run much better with the valve adjustment and new spark plugs?

 

it should hopefully. i;m getting my ngk wires and plugs friday i;ll let you know. jerry hook it up for 45 shipped.

 

dang....i need my valves adjusted....they be ticking....tick....tick.....tick....lol...seriousl y though....

 

Gas is up at 2.45/gallon now...fucking CA and itz damn money problems....Arnold better lower those damn prices....or ima have to go Terminator on his ass, lol.....j/k

 

has anyone else done the valve adjustment? im at 105k and ive got that stupid ticking noise

 

I was going to have mine adjusted at 105K miles, but I dropped in a new engine instead! :P

 

just got mine done, went from sounding like a diesel engine back to normal. said all the intakes were too tight and all the exhausts were too loose or maybe it was reverse that but he said that situation comes from high rpms.

 

was it always knocking or just when cold?

 

if that was addressed to me, most noticably when the engine was cold but you could hear the ticking all the time
