I've started chaging my own fluids, Motor Oil, brake fluid, anit-freeze etc, so I have not been taking the car to Honda.

I'm wondering if there are other things that I am supposed to change 1ith 16,000 miles that I may not b/c I don't know I should have, like tranny oil, diff fluid, etc. When should these be changed??

Thanks

With 16k miles on the car, I'd absolutely change the diff fluid. While you're under there, you might as well do the tranny fluid too.

There are some excellent write-ups on doing these, just do a search.

Helm's service manual states that the differential fluid is to be first changed at 30,000 miles or 2 years. In adverse conditions, this is halved and can be changed at 15,000 miles. At the 15,000 miles, you are also supposed to check the transmission fluid as well.

Make sure that you get the correct fluid for the appropriate mechanical item. Putting in the wrong spec fluid will most likely void your warranty!

HTH.
