105k maintenance
What's the low and high range estimate for 105k maintenance? I had timing belt done earlier, not sure why I didn't get everything else done. Also, what am I looking at exactly? Tensor pulley, tensor idle, water pump, and spark plugs? That should be around $600-700 with labor? Any special deals or coupons I can take advantage of? Thanks.

Any deal you get will be based on who you get to do it for you. If you have a good relationship with a certain dealer or shop then they may show you some goodwill. Shop around. I'm due for it in the next 6 months or so and the local Honda dealer told me they'd work something out with me to get it done as inexpensively as possible because I've gotten work done there in the past.

Usually at 105k you want to check a bunch of things.
Check EGR and PCV valve.
Change timing belt, waterpump, idlers etc. Replace serpentine belt if needed and tensioner if needed since your already removing it to do that timing belt anyways.
Use a fuel injector flush and run that gas tank on the old spark plugs and put new ones in after.
Valve adjustment if needed - doesn't usually need to be done till 150 - 200k you'll hear the valves becoming loose.
Everything you can do yourself other then timing belt and valve adjustment. But I would do the spark plugs and timing belt.
Spark plugs you can do yourself easily. Timing belt not so easy.

If you've already done the timing belt, what are you concerned about? It's the only component that upon failure will cause catastrophic damage. If the pump isn't weeping and the tensioner isn't clacking, all is well. I would still do the plugs and drive belt at 105, but they're easy.

I just purchased 3/4th pressure switch, tranny fluid, and cabin/air filter. I will do those since they are easy and most important. I would love to work on the rest of the car but work/school is a bit long and I don't have much free time. For the pully / idle / pump and plugs, I may pay the dealer.... or go third party. That isn't too big of a job for a local mechanic, right?
