2009 Honda Odyssey Extensive Tune-Up (200,000+ Miles)

Put it up for sale and do nothing. It will yield no more value on a 2009 vehicle.

You’ll get more resale out of a detail than that stuff.

I sure wouldn't use Carb Cleaner on my MAF sensor. I'd use MAF Cleaner.

The 200k miles means selling price will be low.
Timing belt, VCM Muzzler, etc may not make too much difference in the price. It might be a losing proposition financially for you.
As long as the van is driveable with full oil level and cosmetically ok, it might be good to sell it as is.
Buyer may not even ask about timing belt or VCM.

If van has oil consumption issue, you should mention that to buyer, and say a $100 VCM muzzler can help fix that.

So, I have just acquired an '09 EX-L Ody and intend to do a super tune-up job myself before reselling it!

I've been researching for HOURS and this is what I'm planning on trying.
(I posted all the fluid change ideas in another thread)
Let me know your thoughts on this!

Here's the list in no specific order:

1. Install VCM Muzzler (VCM Tuner II)
2. Replace all 6 spark plugs with NGK Ruthenium HX
3. Install Dorman 42009 SP non-foulers
4. New PCV valve
5. New timing belt
6. New water pump
7. Replace air and oil filters
8. New ignition switch lock cylinder
9. New sliding door center rollers
10. Clean engine components such as the mass air flow sensor with carb cleaner
11. Check for other errors in the car and fix as needed

I have good knowledge of recent maintenance from before I received the car, so I'm only doing the other items.

Updates??
