ok. i went out and double checked. service manual may say 30,000 but the damn owners manual says 110,000. that's a lot of difference. why such the big difference?

spark plug wires maybe?

or maybe it says at 110k meaning you should do it with your 110k maintenance, in addition to your 30k schedule... just incase you forgot to do it the last time 30k expired

yeah i don't understand why they would say 110,000 miles... that's longer than the timing belt replacement recommendation. lol


As Honda owners, there are seldom times when we wonder if a guy working at Honda smoked some crack before coming to work. This is one of those times.
