Should I be referring to my Accord's Owner's Manual?
Before we invest in sharing any other maintenance tips with you, we want to make sure you are well aware of the importance of an Owner's Manual. This is something you should always be referring to throughout the time in which you have an Accord. That's because these manuals outline the exact kind of procedures and schedules that are recommended for your specific model. Our technicians will be more than willing to further enhance your knowledge on procedures, but this is something you will be able to do for yourself for the most part, which gives you the power to know when the next service interval is likely due. Remember, the Owner's Manual is an invaluable tool for you and for the life span of your Honda Accord.
How often should I be getting an oil change?
Once more, we want to remind you that the Owner's Manual is a great help when asking for information like this, but it doesn't always tell you the full story. We all have unique driving habits, and some of us may be driving more or less than what an Owner's Manual can account for. That's why this is something we hope you will discuss with our service technicians. Oil changes are absolutely vital to the health of your Honda Accord, and we recommend that they are done anywhere from every 3,000 to 6,000 miles. The oil in your engine works as a lubricant for all of the small metal parts that are moving at rapid speeds. When you have fresh oil, it helps to prevent any additional wear and tear from happening that could cause damage that is costly to fix.
What other key services should I have done for my Accord?
Beyond focusing on your Owner's Manual and getting an oil change, there are many services that we perform right here at Pearson Honda that can help your Accord stay on the road for as long as possible. We recommend things like routine tire care such as a tire rotation and a tire pressure check, an inspection of the lights in your Accord, along ensuring your wiper blades are replaced seasonally to make sure you can still see out of your sedan easily! We'll also want to check fluid levels, replace air filters regularly, and inspect your Accord's battery for any corrosion or loss of charge level. Finally, more specific interval maintenance may include replacing spark plugs, swapping out your timing belt, and having us check your braking system.
