at 80k, as far as i know:

- you need to replace all fluids, including transmission oils
- you would also need to replace your timing belt, your tensioner and your water pump
- if your suspension components are still ok, leave it that way.
- you may also need to replace your aircon and alternator belts

for all of these activities, it can be done within one day.
sa gastos, estimate ko (parts and fluids pa lang):

OIL (mineral) - 800 or
OIL (semi-synthetic) 1600 or
OIL (synthetic) 2400

OIL filter (200)
Brake Fluid (200)
Clutch Fluid (if manual) and PS Fluid (300)
Radiator Coolant (300)
Timing Belt (OEM) 1800
or Timing Belt (Replacement) 900
Tensioner (1000)
Water Pump (OEM) 4000 or
Water Pump (Replacement) 1800

Transmission Oil (if manual) 900 or
Transmission Oil (if automatic) 2400

Wala pa labor and wala pang suspension components (depende kung kailangan palitan)
yung ibang dapat gawin like camber, tire change, aircon cleaning can be deferred, kung necessary lang.

baka lang may nakalimutan pa ako.... wait pa tayo ng ibang inputs.

kung gusto mo (pa) magka-idea kung anu-ano (pa) ang dapat gawin, punta ka honda casa and inquire (wala naman masama na mag-inquire sa casa) what the preventive maintenance service (PMS) will entail for the kilometer reading you have attained. ask mo na rin for the price quote, they will give you a run-down of what needs to be done and cost of the materials/labor. with this quote, you will now have an idea of what should be done and the budget needed...it doesn't mean though na sa casa mo ipapagawa...sabihin mo na lang muna sa casa attendant na "ito ba ang mga dapat gawin? ito ang aabutin na presyo? hmmm...babalikan ko at ipagpapaalam ko sa wife ko(kung married ka na)/ ipagpapaalam ko sa daddy(kung wala pa asawa) ko para bigyan nya ako ng budget." this way, you have an actual idea of what is to be done in case you have a kilalang repair service shop na iyong mapapagkatiwalaan to do all the things listed down at the casa. oks ba?

meron ka some options to choose from like sa engine oil--whether regular oil , semi-synthetic or fully synthetic.

give special emphasis sa mga fluids/oils to be changed...

kung nasa iyo pa iyong car manual ng auto mo, may checklist iyan dun nang kailangan sundin bro for your civic's preventive maintenance. otherwise, the casa most convenient to you may provide you w/ the said checklist as suggested above

btw, saan ba location mo para maka-suggest kami ng reputable shops near to you

you can try also registering at honda club phil kasi baka may local chapter ang hcp dyan at kung mero man baka may maka-assist sa iyo sa ilocos sur. tsaka i remember before may nag-post ng service schedule ng civic dun before kasi may kapareha kang naging problema dati.
