Have just bought the above 2000 Civic w/25,500 miles on it, bought new by a little old lady who just gave up her license to drive at 91 years old! She has only done maintenance according to the accumulated mileage. We live in Austin, TX, and she has used the vehicle mostly for short trips in-city. It has been garaged. I suspect that, despite the low mileage, I should replace engine coolant, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and the belts (including the timing belt), along with the standard 30,000 mile service, which includes oil change and plugs. What about the water pump? Timing chain tensioner? She replaced the AC compressor last June!
