change your fuel filter..

if your brakes are makign noise.. look at them and see how far down they are worn.. if needed change them..

i dn't believe in going to the dealer unless its free..

more than likely if you search on this site.. it will tell you how to do anything you need to do with your car

did i make those?

yeah brakes are pretty easy to do.. if you are hearing grinding then the pads are worn down and are touching the rotor.. mine are doing that now.. i gotta change mine soon.. but i probably won't do a full write up with pics till this weekend.. but its a simple job to do..
