i change oil every 3000 miles, and just switched to full synthetic oil yesterday. my max runs strong and never let me down. Now she has 153,000 miles, and the only service i do is oil change and tires. i am the second owner, have driven 40,000 miles on it. i m wondering what service i should do to make her happy and last longer.

 

Clean the TB/IACV/MAF, change the spark plugs and fuel filter, make sure the air filter is clean etc.

 

You might wanna keep using Dino-oil....

 

i'm sorry, can you elaborate on TB/IACV/MAF? what are they? thanks

 

Throttle body, idle air control valve and mass airflow sensor. There's a how to in the stickies.

 

Also check/if need replace radiator hoses, belts, Power steer flush etc

 

I would suggest NGK spark plugs only...these cars are picky or at least mine is, ran like crap on anything else.

When was the last time you had a radiator flush, transmission fluid change, and maybe think about seafoam the car.
