Question Site with list of maint. items at each mileage interval?

Hey I'm looking for I site I remember seeing here that listed all the maintenance items performed on the vehicle at each of the mileage intervals.

I think it was for Acura only, but I could have been wrong. It's been a few years so its buried pretty far back in my head.

Basically I just need a complete list of everything that's done at Acura if you take a 1999 TL in for 60k miles.

Yeah yeah, she's getting old, almost 3 years now.

If you register at Acura.com, they actually list what should be done at each interval and it matches the manual.

Don't go by what dealers tell you. My experience is that they include extra stuff so that they can charge you more.

Yeah, hey jack I've seen your car here and there driving around town.

Last I saw you had new fender flares... they look nice.

Yeah I've been driving my car a ton.

What else is new lately?

Great I found it.

Anyone who's done theirs before know how much this costs? And whyTF we have to replace a timing belt at 60k? That's a little bit precautious if you ask me.

Replace timing belt and inspect the water pump if this service was not done at 60,000 miles.
Replace engine oil.
Rotate tires. Follow the pattern shown in the Owner's Manual. Check tire inflation and condition.
Inspect front and rear brakes.
Check pads and discs for wear (thickness) and damage.
Check calipers for leaks and check tightness of mount bolts.
Check brake lining for cracking, glazing, wear, and contamination.
Check wheel cylinders for leaks.
Inspect tie-rod ends, steering gearbox, and rack boots.
Check steering linkage for looseness.
Check fluid lines for damage and leaks.
Inspect suspension components.
Check bolts for tightness.
Check ball joint boots for deterioration and damage.
Inspect driveshaft boots for cracks, and check boot bands for tightness.
Adjust valves if noisy.
Check parking brake adjustment. Should be fully applied within 2 to 4 clicks.
Lubricate door locks, latches, and hinges with multi-purpose grease, or Acura White Lithium Grease.
Inspect brake hoses and lines (including ABS). Check the master cylinder, proportioning control valve and ABS modulator for damage and leakage.
Check all fluid levels, condition of fluids and check for leaks. If needed, add transmission fluid, engine coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid.
Inspect cooling system hoses and connections.
Check for damage, leaks and deterioration.
Check for proper fan operation.
Inspect exhaust system. Check catalytic converter heat shield, exhaust pipe, and muffler for damage, leaks, and tightness.
Inspect fuel lines and connections. Check for leaks.
Check the operation of all lights and controls.
Inspect the underbody. Check frame and panels for damage. Inspect paint for scratches and stone chipping.
Replace air conditioning filter if the vehicle is driven in urban areas with a high concentration of soot.
Replace air cleaner element.
Inspect and adjust drive belts.
Replace air conditioning filter.
Replace transmission fluid; use the proper Genuine Acura fluid: ATF or MTF.

Yeah I parked right behind him the other day.

I doubt he has more engine mods than you do man...

His front end is a little excessive. Those Evo/Rally style lights really werent meant for the car. I like your flares too.

Got any more side pix? Those are new rims, aren't they?

Car looks really good man.
