What is your question?
I have my Odyssey for 5 years now and have 44000 miles, but since past couple months it is driving a little sluggish. I have been doing regular maintenance. When i sluggish, i mean it does not pick up acceleration as it used to. My dealer recommended clean up of engine valves. He also said that this is normal around 100000 miles but said sometimes it can happen early. The cost of this cleanup is $250.00. Any advice will help.

try cleaning the mass airflow sensor with a can of mass airflow sensor cleaner made by crc, then fill up with some 93 amoco fuel.check for any vacuume leaks and take it out on the highway and open that baby up!!!! aka(put it to the floor)
Honda use an intake manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP sensor) to measure air going into the engine, if valve clearances get tight over time manifold vacuum drops and engine looses power. They are suggesting adjusting the valves., it is a good preventive maintenance thing to do anyway. I have seen this problem on Hondas before. The MAP sensor can't be cleaned but the throttle housing/ butterfly can be cleaned.
