for the 6th generation accord, it says under "severe driving condition" u need at 60 K to get water pump checked, and replace timing belt, but when i called they said, thats only if u live like in REALLY REALLY (zoolander LOL) hot or cold places... and drive abnormally alot also. so, the person where i bought my car (they got good customer and just overall service) said dont need to do it until 90K... i dunno bout that, i think it said 105K under normal conditions in my manual. she said its gonna cost me at the time 680 including labor, for the 5 different belts to be replaces, the water pump and that valve and fuel injector whatever... at 60K u only need to check all that crap u have to anyways, spark plugs, oil change, and some the oil filter , inspect the valves (only inspect it says), replace air cleaner element (what the hell is this? this must be important, cuz its only changed like every 15 K miles, unlikes oil change and oil filter replacement), replace spark plugs if u got a 4 cylinder, V6 gets replaced at 105 K.... , inspect and adjust drive belts, and replace air conditioning filter, etc etc... rest is the same as most maintenance like replace break fluid, check parking break... BREAK FLUId should be replaced at 45 K, and transmission fluid as well. anyway, here u go
