Default Need Advice! 90k Scheduled Maintenance!

So im looking for a nice shop around here that can Adjust my values, change the gearbox, differential and clutch fluids. PTuning i hear is amazing buts a pretty far drive from Baltimore and after speaking to Honda they dont adjust the values in their scheduled maintenance anymore so its an additional 100 bucks to add it to the package. Anyone have any suggestions?

100 bucks for a valve adjustment is a great deal, a crazy deal for a stealership. Would they actually do that on it's own for that price?

All the fluids are really really easy if you want to save some money.

Sorry, don't know any shops in the Towson area.

No it's only if you get full package which ends up being like 480 for the vales, engine oil change and differential. They don't touch the gear box or the clutch fluid :/

Same type of fluid, but different reservoirs.

This is the first car I've ever owned and worked on and I was able to change the tranny, diff, and engine oils using only printout DIYs from S2KCA (lol, there are probably good ones here too).

Let me know if you find a good deal for a valve adjustment. I'm at 102K miles and I haven't had that done, but they don't seem that noisy.

lol if only Williamsburg wasnt 4 hours away! Ive had bad luck with Heritage Honda in Towson and i dont recommend ANYONE going there, my seatbelts werent retracting all the day and honda has a lifetime warranty on them so I went to have them changed, needless to say they put a 2 inch hole in my top, looks like the mechanic slipped maybe and tore it, cracked both Roll bars and stripped paint off my doorwell, and they only fess up to breaking the roll bars and after a month of arguing with them, the honda service repair director for the mid atlantic region and honda corporate all im getting fixed is the roll bars, which after 4 trips in still isnt done properly! Infact the first time they tried to just glue to together and hoped I wouldnt notice, the second time they sealed one and forgot the other and I spoke to the Director and he ordered me new ones last week which when they arrvied were damaged in shipping so im still waiting for replacements to come...
