Honda Maintenance checklists for service intervals

[kahnartist]

NOTE: This maintenance internal Honda Service checklist is from a California dealer...and may not be the same Intermediate Service check list used at your particular dealer (in your state) for this mileage service interval.

Please use CAUTION when using this list.
It should be used for comparison ONLY--check with your dealer to find out particulars for your Honda make and mode. These maintenance checklists were given to us from the dealer when we purchased the truck in 06. The Ridgeline was too new to be added to the list...but you are probably safe to substitute the Honda Pilot for Ridgeline.

These are MAINTENANCE CHECKLISTs for a major Honda dealer for these service intervals. Again, check with your particular dealer to see if your list is any different:

For the life of me I could not find a maintenance schedule in my manuals like I have had in every other automobile I have had (Am I blind?) I like the maintenance minder, but if the dealer forgets an item, I would like to be able to look at the maintenance schedule and past receipts to see if a missed item should be taken care of during my next service...

This is a maintenance guidelines printout from the Dealer system and helps explain how to interpret the maintenance minder and things the minder expects you to do when the codes comes up. Remember that the maintenance minder only is keeping track of your engine oil via a formula and the other service recommendations are being made as a convenience to you the owner so you do not have to make multiple appointments to get jobs done that could be done together.

I asked my dealership Customer Service Rep for a copy for my RL and one for my Pilot, she promtly printed them off for me and I have themi n my glove boxes

What was the price you guys paid for the 60k service?

My guess is that Honda REALLY wants us to visit the dealer for all maintenance. So they make the codes much harder to interpret than we usually find in most auto manuals. You must do some work to interpret the "A-1" or "B12" codes. Not very hard to do, but much harder than we usually see in owner's manuals from the past.

Just figure out the codes, and you'll see that you can do most of the maintenance stuff yourself....even if you're a novice. Check the Search Function for most anything you'd like to know about DIY service. Just be SURE you keep all your receipts!....in case you have problems later.
