So my wife and I are going on a road trip in 3 weeks. The Civic just went over 100k, so I figured a little tune up was in order. I assume I will replace the air filter, all the fluids, and plugs, what else should I do? HELP ME OUT!2001 ex 4 door

Off the top of my head:-Change the oil-check the condition of the tires-make sure there is plenty left on the brakes

Replacing the air filter. Replacing the fuel filter(s). Installing new spark plugs and replacing any worn spark plug wires. Inspecting and installing a new distributor cap if one is needed. Inspecting the valve-cover gasket and adjusting the valves (if your car has adjustable valves). All fluids checked and topped off. A battery check and terminal cleaning,

Timing belt and water pump. I would not take long distance driving without replacing the two. Most new Honda cars require 105K replacement service.

Replace Belts and hoses(even if they look good they are good for only "so many flexes"), wheel bearing grease? brake pad condition and rotor condition. condition of "all the tires" pressure in all the tires(including the spare). Make sure the jack works and that you have a wheel wrench. Wiper blades.?
