So my 06 EX-P 2wd MT just got 32k miles and the dealer wants to sell me the $700 30k checkup!
I have always done my own maintenance, the E is the first car I had someone else change the oil because I wanted to stay up and up with the warranty , plus it is the wife's car so sometimes it is just easier.
Anyway, it looks like I'll be taking over maintenance. Here is what the dealer wants to sell me:
Tire rotation: I'll have that done for free at discount tires
Air filter: no brainer done that before
Cabin filter: never done but the power of EOC has shown me the way
Oil Change: Never done on on this car, what is recommended filter and oil?
MTF: Never done one, but read the how too. Looks easy enough but is that really a 30K item?
Brake fluid: I'm more of the leave it there sort of guy so i was going to pass until the 60K service
Coolant: Seems to be mixed reviews on this one, I do wish to keep the car for along time so some Honda coolant might be a good investment, heck it is only every three years.
I think that is all they really do, other than check a bunch a crap and try and sell me a $100 battery.
Any other 30k suggestions?
Thanks
