Default 9 Year, 90,000 Mile Refresh

I'm looking for some help in planning the items I should expect to do maintenance on my 2008 EX 4 door. So far I have the following:

Brakes - done

Shocks/Struts - Koni FSD

Tires - Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 (currently have the DWS)

VTC Actuator (yes, I have the noise)

I already do regular auto trans fluid changes. So is there anything else I should add to the list?

TIA

  • Iridium spark plugs, if they have not been changed before.
  • Drive belt, if it has not been changed before.
  • Brake fluid
  • Power steering fluid
  • PCV valve
  • Engine air filter
  • Cabin air filter

On a side note, I also have Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 on my car, and it totally changes how it handles, even without other suspension mods.

Skip the struts and shocks, it is HIGHLY unlikely your car will need them at any time prior to the 200,000-250,000 mile mark.
