Got most the bits for my service. 37 quid for a fuel filter from Honda , didn't expect that. Also thought I'd replace 2 of my tyres as they were getting low. 2 raInsport 2's for £125 fitted which I thought was quite good.think I'm going to change my lamba sensor anyway as it has covered a few miles.

Clean the EGR valve and possibly the IACV too.

EGR valve yeah but I would leave things like the IACV and FITV well alone unless there is an existing problem.

Egr and fitv have both been done away with and iacv was cleaned not long ago. Cheers for the ideas though
