I'm reply to a post that detailed the last major service we did back on 11/01/2008 at 40,232 miles in our 2007 CR-V 4WD. We did the oil change recently (maybe 1k miles ago), but didn't do anything else. We had swung by one of our local Honda dealers (Jim Coleman Honda) recently to get the oil change reminder thing reset. The guy there recommended and gave us printouts on their "Schedule 'B' Recommended Service" (45k, $310) and "Schedule 'C' Recommended Service". (60k, $469)
 
both services include the following items:
- Replace oil and filter
- Install BG MOA oil supplement (reduce friction/extend life of engine)
- Install BG Carbon Fighter 5 (prevents & removes fuel system deposits)
- Inspect drive belts
- Inspect radiator and coolant hoses
- Inspect cooling fan operation
- Inspect suspension system and mounting bolt torque
- Inspect exhaust pipes and muffler
- Inspect emissions controls for proper operation
- Inspect steering rack and tie rod ends
- Rotate Tires and inspect for wear and damage
- Set proper tire pressure
- check power steering operation
- Load test battery and clean terminals (don't really need this, just had battery replaced under warranty - posted about it a few posts up)
- Inspect brake pads and shoes for wear
- Inspect brake lines and hoses
- Inspect parking brake adjustment
- Top off windshield washer fluid
- Inspect windshield wiper blades and inserts
- Check PCV system
- Inspect vehicle lighting
- lubricate door hinges and seals
- lubricate hood hinges and latch
- clean engine compartment
- inspect drive axle boots and bands
- reset maintenance indicator
- road test vehicle
 
the differences in the Schedule B/45k service (that the Schedule C/60k service doesn't have) is as follows:
- Inspect automatic transmission fluid level
- Inspect valve clearance
- replace antifreeze (done so early? in my 2004 Accord 4 cylinder, this wasn't done til 120,000 miles)
- inspect and clean air filter element
 
the differences in the Schedule C/60k service (that the Schedule B/45k service doesn't have) is as follows:
- Replace transmission fluid (again, done so early? My 2004 Accord 4 cylinder had this done at 120k miles too I believe)
- Inspect transmission linkage
- Adjust valve clearance as required (again, done so early? this was checked out at 110k miles in my 2004 Accord 4 cylinder)
- replace spark plugs (again, done so early? this was checked out at 120k miles in my 2004 Accord 4 cylinder)
- replace air filter element
- inspect ignition wires
- inspect distribution cap and rotor
- inspect idle speed
- inspect water pump for leaks
- inspect antifreeze level and protection
- replace brake fluid (again, done so early? in my 2004 Accord, this was done every 3 years).
- inspect antilock brake system operation
- Perform differential service (additional) (not sure what this is all about)
 
Any thoughts? for the 30k service on the car, I paid $20 to firestone adn for that price they did a complete vehicle inspection which I believe covered pretty much everything that was listed to be done for that service. and then the air filter & cabin air filter I ordered and installed myself. And the oil change and tire rotation I had done at the dealer using a $30 coupon. so all in all, I think I paid under $100 for everything.
