Dija see in Click and Clack that valve jobs are required / highly recommended in CRV's and Elements at 90K? With so many used as Toads, I thought I'd pass this along. Google it
For those who have some simple tools, the valves on the Honda's are REALLY simple to check and adjust. I don't suggest it if you have zero mechanical know how with a car, but my wife's civic was quoted at around $800 to have the valves checked and plugs changed. I did it in about 3 hrs for the cost of the plugs ($2.50/ea) and a new seal for the valve cover...this included time for the oil change.
