Default 60k mile service

Is there anything that needs special paying attention to for the 60K mile maintenance? Honda lists that service at $220.

I am going to have the oil changed, filter cleaned, transmission fluid changed. Is there anything else that I may me missing?

Thanks.

Check out your owners manual for the list of stuff that gets done. Maybe that includes flushing the radiator & the brake fluid?

There's a lot of stuff that independant mechanics can do, doesn't have to be the dealer.

One tip, make sure they do it right, check everyting, if possible before you leave, check the oil, look in at all the fluids you can and make sure there is some in there, I, as well as 2 other people on this board (that i know of) have had problems with these services where they forget somthing like replacing the oil or even the tranny fluid, just make sure they do it right...
