What is Kaizen you ask? The literal translation:
- Kai = Change
- Zen = Good
The philosophy of Kaizen is based of 5 basic principles:
- Teamwork
- Personal Discipline
- Improvement in Morale
- Quality
- Suggestions for Improvement
Although the fundamentals of Kaizen originated with the American occupation of Japan after World War II in an effort to aid the growth of Japanese industry, the fundamentals are based in the Japanese cultural ideals of teamwork and striving for perfection. True, this is intended for industry – but the fundamentals can certainly be applied to your everyday car maintenance.
Consider that by checking the little things on your Honda on a regular basis, you will certainly prevent a catastrophic breakdown.

If you wait until you hear the ominous metal-on-metal grind – you’re looking at a complete brake job! So, in addition to saving money, you are certain that your Honda is safe for you and your family.
The same theory follows for every aspect of your vehicle – diligence with regular servicing you will avoid costly repairs.
