What's going on everyone? Just a quick question, I just hit 104,000 miles, what needs to be done? Anything needs to be lubed? Etc....? Thanks!

 

Ball joints, timing belt, upper control arms, your tranny will probably go soon.

 

I Was told the timing belt should be changed at 105,000 miles, just got everything else checked out, I have time, please do not jinx the tranny...Thanks for your response.....

 

I forgot the belts.

 

technically spark plugs are due at 105k, but replace them now, they are probably already degraded in performance. use ngk iridium (better) or platinum (oem) only.

 

Timing belt is 7 years or 105. You are past the 7 years and i would be more concerned about the age than miles. Id get the belt service done sooner than later.

 

First time I heard the 7 year thing, but ok, thanks!

 

Did the coils and NGK Iridium plugs 6 months ago. Thanks!

 

Tranny fluid still pink, so leave it alone??

 

Can you be a little more detailed on the upper control arms?

Do you mean replace them? or just the ball joints and bushings on the upper control arms?

I just hit 105K on my car. Need to start some maintenance on this thing.

thanks!

 

At 105k you need to replace the timing belt, timing belt tensioners, water pump, drive belts and spark plugs. A valve adjustment also needs to be done. Personally, I would also replace the thermostat and radiator hoses at the same time. This costs around $1200 at a Honda dealer or $1600 at an Acura dealer.

The lower ball joints, upper control arms, etc are all done on an as-needed basis. The transmission should have been serviced at the 90k mark. If it was done then, then it does not need to be done again until 120k. If in doubt, go ahead and service it.
