So, in about a month I will be taking a trip to georgia and will remain there for 15 weeks and then be driving back home. I’m going to taking in the honda. So everything maintenance wise on the car is up to date (timing belt/coolant flush/02 sensor/thermostat) And it runs great. Also just passed inspection about 5 days ago. I am just wondering if anyone has any suggestions as to things I should double check or even a decent shop I could take it to, So they might give it a once over before I leave? I would really rather not break down on the way out there or have anything go to shit while I am out there, I really don’t expect anything to break but I am preparing for the worst. ---
