What maintenance is required on 2004 Honda accord at 130000 miles?

If it is a V6, the cam belt, water pump, spark plugs, coolant, and thermostat, should have been replaced at 110,000 miles. If you have not done so, know that this is an interference engine. If the belt breaks you will have engine damage. If it is a 4 cylinder the spark plugs, coolant, & thermostat need to be replaced. Have brakes and suspension inspected.

If the car is overheating or if the temperature gauge is not coming up to normal operating temperature which is normally half way up the gauge then the thermostat needs replacing. As the water pump should be replaced at the same time as the cam belt every 90,000 miles, you should also replace the thermostat and coolant.If the car is overheating or if the temperature gauge is not coming up to normal operating temperature which is normally half way up the gauge then the thermostat needs replacing.

1990 mercury topaz and just put a new water pump and a thermostat in it you go only a couple of miles and it heats up losing all fluids what is causing this?

First, where is it losing all the coolant ? Is it losing the coolant in the engine, or on the outside of the engine ? You must establish this first. What was the problem before ? Is the coolant leaking from the out side, like near the water pump, or from the large tube that goes into the water pump from the rad. hose ? Is there a problem with the thermostat ? When you replaced the pump, and put in the O- ring, did you put some silicone on the O-ring to help it seal ? Is it leaking from there. Check all the hoses and clamps and the rad. Good luck.


What is done during a 90000 mile service on a 1999 Honda Accord?

Possibly change engine oil/filter and any other maintenance that is due. At 105,000 miles you MUST replace the cam belt, water pump, thermostat, and coolant. Also replace the spark plugs if they have not been replaced. Replace the brake fluid if that has not been done.
