What i did for my Honda:

 

1 Change Engine Oil every 10K KM

2. Change CVTF every 20k to 30K

3. Change Fuel filter for 100K KM

4. Change Spark Plug once around 30K(NGK), once at 8k (Brisk spar plug, looks a bit burned, dare not to use anymore), later will do the adjustment by myself. (Re-gap only) --(Denso now will check and see how first)

5. Change the Air-filter around 20k if not very dirty. (Cleaning or change at 10K, depends how dirty it is.)

6. Change tire once consider need to change

7. Change the brake pad once necessary--- Will wait for the sound...

8. Battery should be changed every two years-- (My current one is 2 year plus, still OK. Will change if any indication of failure like can not start smoothly)

9. Checked my brake fluid, most of the time no need to change...

10. Aircon, no plan yet... since it is working very well, then dun care about it since without aircon, car still can run...hehe!
