Does anyone know, or know anyone who works for Honda?
I have a 2001 Honda Accord Sport 1.8 Vtec
Its due a service, but what I want to know, is what is done in both its normal service and its big service?
The big service, which the dealer is recommending, is around £350 of which i dont have...
What could happen if i dont get it serviced?
If i could find out what they actually do, i might be able to get it done elsewhere...
Thanks

this is what is needed according to the service book
Oil Change
Oil Filter
Air Cleaner Element
Inspect & adjust valve clearances
Fuel Filter
Spark Plugs
Inspect & adjust drive belts
Washer Bottle
Check Engine Coolant System
Replace Transmission Fluid
Change oil
Inspect front & rear brakes
replace brake fluid inc abs
check & adjust parking brake
check lights alignment/operation
And visually inspect a list of other things
Seems a hell of a lot there, might cost me more that £350 to have it done
Im at 54600 and i missed the 45k service, should i do the 45k & big 54k service or could it wait for the 63k service?
recommend any independent Honda specialists in leicestershire?

The expensive part is the labour as the valve clearances take a bit of time due to the VTEC system.
The car is now out of Honda warranty so you dont need to get it done at all but I would recommend its done albeit not necessarily at a main dealer. Any decent garage can do it.
I could get the service thing printed out from our Honda dealership when I go back in on Sat if you want to see whats done and how long etc.

As i missed the 45k service, would it be ok just to do the 54k one, all be that it doesnt quite to the same thing, or both services combined?
