We bought our Fit Sports in October of 08 and just did our first oil changes. The oil change and tire rotation reminder came on at 10,100 for me. Hers came on at 9500. She does more city driving than I do, so that's to be expected. Now to see if it'll be another 8 months or so until the next oil change and tire rotation! Still lovin' the cars!

Nothing really
Oil changed every 3500-4000 miles
Tranny, clutch, brake, coolant flush every 25k miles
engine air filter and cabin filter every 15k
Just had water pump, thermostat, serpentine belt replaced at 70k as a precaution and it should be good for another 70k

In the beginning the glove box rattled a bit then it stopped by itself. Now i get a weird rattle from the Drivers door when driving at speed and its annoying as shit but its not all the time.... have yet to figure out. 1 light bulb burned out in the d/s headlight the little nipple one on top but I'm too lazy to change it. I have campaigned my dealer to change my shocks so they just did the 2 front shocks and it rides much better gonna rail them for both rears too. Other than that 3rd set of tires, 2 brake jobs 1 rotor swap, and its been good. Car is abused like no other 7k rpm all day. Never let me down.

Preventative maintenance. Came from a background of BMW's where waterpumps blow around 80-90k so i guess just being used to that.
