So that was risky, isn't 100K the recommend on that?

How much did it cost you?

Actually the recommended is 167K or 7 years I believe. I got a certified
Honda mechanic do the belts ,water pump and oil change for $375.00. Good
deal.

At that price, those were aftermarket parts.

Watch carefully for noises and leaks from your new water pump, and do not
allow the new belt to go the full specified interval before replacing it
again.

You will NOT get the same longevity from aftermarket as you will from
genuine Honda.
