Default Maintenance on 05 Accord V6

I have a 05 Accord EX V6 w/ 68k. Nothing major has been done to. What should I do as far as maintenance? All I have done to it is change all brake pads in the last month. Do i need to flush out the transmission Fluid? I have heard many different opinions on a new timing belt. Any help would be appreciated.

New timing belt is due in 7 yrs or 105K miles, whichever comes first, so likley your belt is due.

A bit early for trans fluid drain/replace, but this maintenance is inexpensive and can't hurt. Probably 3qts to drain ATF and replace w/ Honda ATF.

Look at your owner's manual for maintenance schedule of things to replace/inspect.

good luck

Texas suggests drain & fill, and not the flush technique; a choice I think most people here would agree with.
