ok guys...i need knowledge
 
the max has finally hit 96k and i just realized that im due for a 90k service.asked the dealer how much theyll get me for this one and its $475.now what im planning to do is just to do all stuff that i am confidently capable of doing.so far ive done
*TB cleaning
*oil change
*oil filter change

fuel filter is getting replaced on sunday and hopefully transmission flush(yes,im planning to drop the pan!)

now a few more things to do as planned..
*iacv
*pcv
*coolant system flush?is this the same as radiator flush and is it necessary?
*power steering flush?anybody done this yet?

what do you guys think am i missing and is there any available write up in cleaning the iacv(i dont even know how that damn thing looks like)
thanks for the future responses!

and one more thing.is it possible to clean the MAF sensor?i remember going across a thread like that and he said he used TB cleaner to spray on the MAF filaments.i wonder what help that gives.

cooling system should be done every 30k so if the last time it was done was around 60k then its time again. coolant is the same as antifreeze which is what is circulated in your radiator. there is a write up on iacv, its either in the FAQ or its in a post you should be able to find in search. i used electronic parts cleaner to clean my maf since it will be an effective cleaner and its not harmful to plastic. dropping the pan on the tranny is fun, make sure to clean up the magnets.
