105,000 mile service?

I got a letter from the dealer today saying it's time for the 105k service.

I'm at 104,221 they must be psychic.

Honestly, I hate the dealer and I don't want anything to do with them anymore.

So can anyone tell me what the 105k service is?

did you have any service @ 90K? hopefull you have changed the plugs already and it may also be a good time to have the fuel filter replaced if that has not been already as well. also consider flushing brake fluid, power steering, and coolant. either a tranny drain and refill or flush would be beneficial. some say its not a good idea to flush a tranny with over 100k but if it is in good operating condition, i have never had any issues with flushing it.

I'm not sure what the proper service is for 105K, but once you find out I would go to an independent shop and have the work done.

Did the plugs when the coils went out at 83k. Flushed the coolant and tranny fluid when I bought the car at 72k. The tranny fluid was changed out again when I had to replace the solenoids. Brake fluid don't know. Fuel filter maybe <---I get 25mpg so I'm just not 100% sold on that one. Power Steering now that is one that might deserve some attention. As for the Air Filter I have the K&N drop in I'll prolly clean it out at 110k


I never thought of the Belts or the PCV valve thanks guys .
