Vehicle description
Owned since 230,000 miles. Currently getting low 50"s mpg in mixed driving. My city has hills so this affects mileage.
Routine maintenance schedule used (all fluids and filters changed when purchased at 230,000): Full synthetic Mobile 0W-20 Oil changed every 6,000 miles with oil filter. Tires rotated every 6,000 miles. Tires are Nitrogen filled and topped off monthly.
Air filter changed every 15,000 miles. Cabin air filter changed every 30,000 miles. Transmission fluid changed every 30,000 with OEM Honda fluid. Coolant flushed every 30,000 with OEM Honda fluid. Brake fluid every 60,000 miles with OEM Honda fluid. Brake pads inspected every 30,000 or if issues (rotors and pads replaced at 230K) Wipers replaced each fall. 12V battery posts and casing cleaned every 15,000 miles. All hinges and locks lubricated every 15,000 miles. Non-smoking car. Reconditioning solution applied to all weather stripping each fall. Weekly checks to include, fluid levels, window cleaning, underbody panels, lighting, headlight cleaning, tire pressure, tire wear, and general interior/exterior issues.

Issues:
First and second gears tend to grind when down shifting while at speed. Rev matching shift technique helps offset this. Input shaft bearing growls when accelerating under load at lower speeds.
