It would still be under warranty if I did all the work right? Or does the dealer need to do it to stay under warranty?
We have a local garage that does all the maintenance on our cars, never had a problem with any warranty stuff with Honda/Acura in the last 16 years and every Honda/Acura we've had in that time.
'84 Accord
'93 Civic EX
'96 Accord LX
'96 Integra GSR
'99 Integra GSR (2 of them, ours and our son's)
'02 RSX-s
'04 RSX-s

The only thing any of them went to the dealer for was warranty issues.

Valve adjustments are easy if you have the snap on tool.

60K is an easy ordeal. Honda charges $80 for a throttle body cleaning :rofl:

Check with your dealer about the warranty thing. Ask them if you produce receipts of the parts replaced, will they honor it if a warranty issue comes up.
