Maintenance cost of Honda Civic '00 or '01

**madfedaykin** · May 24th, 2006 11:58 PM

Hi Honda Civic '00 or '01 owners, how much have you spent recently on maintenance? (parts replacements due to wear and tear, oil change, aircon maintenance, etc.) I'm planning to buy a used Civic (preferably '00 or '01 models), and I need help estimating additional costs on my purchase. I’m a first-time car buyer and I’m clueless about maintenance costs. Thanks in advance.

depends on the milage you but it at. also if the previous owner has followed the maintenance schedule.

nag-tanong ako dati sa honda pamapanga. yung 80,000kms...nasa range ng 14 ~ 16 thousand petos sa CASA.

i have a 2002 civic vti a/t (out of warranty na). i just had my 80,000 pms last week sa casa. cost is around 16K+. madami pinalitan fluids saka yung timing and drive belt. but on typical regular pms like for the coming 90k, kelangan lang replace oil and oil filter.mura na lang yan. depende na lang sa gagamitin mong langis. btw, yun brake pads, sa labas ko na lang pinapalitan kasi mahal sa casa, 3k+. i got it 400 sa labas + 150 labor lang.

sabihin mo lang sa SA na wag palitan yung brake pad & belt.

if its a regular pms, kasama na sa package labor yang pag-check/replace ng brake pads and belts. makatipid ka lang sa parts. but yes, you should inform the SA na wag na palitan yung mga parts na yon.

they will inform you naman kung kelangan or not. or just tell them from the start na wag na i-check kung napagawa mo na.

Thanks for the replies guys. The '00 model that I'm looking at has a little more than 80t kms in mileage, while the '01 model is at 67k kms. The owners have records of their visits sa casa while the cars are still under service warranty. After those periods wala nang service records. But I'll ask them...baka meron silang records/receipts from other maintenance/repair shops. Both have automatic transmissions, btw. Magkano kaya estimate for the first visit sa casa or other maintenance shops after I buy either of them? How often do I go back to the shop for maintenance? Magkano naman estimate for succeeding visits? Ano typically ang nasisirang parts for these models? Pasensya na sa mga tanong...I'm a real newbie.
