[dieselNUBI]

hey guys... my dad's CRV year model 2000 is nearing 40,000km already.

besides change oil, oil filter, transmision oil.... is there any other things i should do?

should i replace spark plugs already? (never been replaced)what else?

what other fluids should i replace?

what should i lubricate?

whaaat? spark plugs never been replaced at 40,000 kms? imho, diba dapat every 10k ang palit ng plugs?

other things you might check:

a) radiator flush
b) brake fluid replacement
c) power steering fluid replacement
d) tire rotation/balancing/camber check
e) aircon cleaning/check
f) air filter replacement/check/cleaning

dami pa....

erap, suggestion lang...
why not bring it to honda mismo for a heavy PMS? i know it can be expensive, but it is worth it...

[dieselNUBI]

madugo kasi eh. okay sana kung makakatipid ako kahit konte.

IMHO,

to have your car properly maintained, bring it to the casa every 10K. then you can DIY the maintenance in between.

also, check your manual. usually at 40K there is not much to do other than the normal PMS routine. oil, oil filter, air filter, coolant, battery water, brake fluid, alignment, fuel filter, spark plugs, etc

for the spark plugs, have it checked if the CR-V is already using the denso iridium plugs. AFAIK, the Cefiro and Rav4 is already using those and needs replacement only every 100K.

Kung gusto mo makatipid, follow the procedures in your manual pero sa talyer or gas station mo dalhin.

40t km is a major service interval. Palit lahat ng fluids. pag plano po pagawa sa labas use other brands ng coolant. Mahal kase yung Honda Green Fluid at Php700 a bottle.

Manual Tranny ba yan?: pag M/T use motor oil na 10w-40 or 20w-50. Don't use gear oil for Hondas.

Pag A/T naman use Honda ATF. As for the RTAWD differential ATF din gamit dun. Brake fluid naman is DOT4

HTH

AT po sya.

actually baka next month ko pa ito i papa PMS. im just making a check list of what should i do.

yes 40,000 km PMS is a heavy PMS!

pass by the shop if you like we can do all the required pms for you

re: the loss of pulling power, that's probably the sparkplugs/air filter due for a change.

[jackaroo]

The throttle body opening should be cleaned too by spraying it with a carb cleaner, will help smoothen out the idling.

I'd check all 4 shocks by actually pulling them out- "showa" shocks don't last that long.
Crv bushings are weak: replace trailing arm, strut bar bushings.
Use Honda PSF only for power steering.
A good Dex 3 ATF should do for transmission and rear diff.

If repairs are never ending- sell the car!

[dieselNUBI]

jackaroo, magkano aabutin yan sinasabi mo? tancha lang.
