Apologies The title should refer to year 20'01 model, not 1991 - thank
you to respondents who pointed this out my error - had brain
malfunction). Thanks for the replies so far.


Here's the message again (with the proper subject title):

After an oil change, my trusty independent mechanic told my wife that

1. Radiator and heater hoses need to be replaced since the '01 Honda
Civic is now 5 years old :

$350.

2. He says that the coolant system should be flushed from red to
green. Red is bad, Green is good, Red eats gaskets, he says.

$109.95.

3. Power steering fluid is dirty and should be flushed -

$80
