How to find out when my car requires maintenance?
I bought a new Honda and when I read the owner's manual it just says to rely on the maintenance computer to tell me. But I want to know in advance what miles I will need Tune-up, new spark plugs, fluid changes etc. But none of this is covered in the owner's manual!
So how do I find out about what mileage I will need to perform these services?
Go to the Honda dealer. Ask them what services they do at what mileage.
Look in the index under "maintenance schedule". If it's not listed ask a service writer at the dealer.
- Where can I go to service my car for maintenance if I'm in another city? My maintenence light warning came on today on my Honda and I'm currently in another city for work. Can I go the nearest Honda dealer to get it serviced or would I have to go through a mechanic
- Is there a way to find out the percentage of how off my motorcycles odometer will be with non-stock gearing? The front and rear sprockets on my Honda CBR600 have 15 teeth in front and 45 teeth in the back. Stock gearing for my bike is 16 teeth front and 43 teeth back. I was wondering is there a formula or anyway I can figure out roughly the percentage my speedometer and odometer is off by?
- I need to find a part for my Honda ex1000 generator. I can't seem to find a part for a reasonable price or even the right part I have a Honda Generator and I need to buy a carburetor. I can find a lot of different ones online but I only find One for the Model I have. It is 80 bucks. I see a lot that look the same and I would like to know how to find one that is cheaper. I have looked for hours and can't find one that is cheap like the others. The part number is 16100-ZC0-015. Does anyone know how I can find a variety to choose from or do I need to get the honda brand carb?
- My car is overheating and I can't find out why? I bought an old 96 Honda Civic from a friend and it's been sitting for while. It's been started every month or two. He told me it runs and drives but overheats and he can't find out why. I've changed the thermostat and the radiator and after the car warms up for a bit it still overheats and coolant even boils in the overflow tank. Also white smoke comes from the exhaust manifold area.
