WoW 200k
So, i was ridin around tonight, and looked down at my odo and i had rolled over 200k. I haven't had any major problems with the car yet, but im wondering what i should replace?? Any service manual recommendations?
Overall I'd say keep doing what you're doing.
If you're looking to do a good cleaning of the motor internals, there's a writeup on using seafoam on this forum but my thinking is, "ain't broke...don't fix".
Keep up on the plugs, care for the leather, change (or clean) the airfilter and do the tranny service (full flush).
If not already done, check your CV boots for deep cracks or torn black rubber.
Tell us what your oil change intervals are & what type/brand are you putting in?
See you at 300K!

I was told by my mechanic @ 200k that import vehicles keep their performance up and steady with synthetic oil, also be strict with your maintenance, baby that ride of yours and you wont have any other problems.
If you haven't already done it yet get your radiator flushed, preferably before your summer arrives
Mines done close to 300,000km's (186k miles) and last week it overheated on one of the hotter days (30C). Turned out my radiator was 40% blocked
Made me kinda mad at myself though, because I consider myself to be pretty good with maintenance, getting things done when it's time but I had completely overlooked the radiator
Luckily nothing else seems to be damaged, it was only overheated for 5mins (turned of the A/C and it dropped right back down again).
