Hello,
I have a Honda accord 2006 sedan, recently i find it is overheating. I checked and found the driver side radiator fan is defective and there is a leak in the drive-side radiator. I have ordered a new radiator and fan assembly. My question is should i replace the thermostats and water pump as well? Do i need to replace the spark plug and ignition coils?

Thanks.

Mike

Before going off to other parts of the vehicle, focus on what's broken first. Start with radiator and fan first. Water pump is usually done when doing the timing belt. Once the heating issue is resolved, you can consider doing the spark plugs depending on the mileage. If there isn't anything wrong with the coils, don't touch it.

Why?
Don't fix it if it ain't brok.
If it's brok, fix it right away.

As sj said - is it TIME or indications in performance to replace those other parts?
