100,000 mile service

first, please dont get mad at me and tell me to use the search feature because for some reason it doesnt let me.

next, i got my max with 105,000 miles on it and im pretty sure the 100,000 mile service was never performed. it now has about 122,000miles on it....just wondering if there would be any benifits of doing the service now? theres no CEL or anything and the only thing that i really notice is that after driving on the highway (above 50) for a while, when i let off the gas it seems to drag sort of. but other than that i really dont find much wrong with it. ive changed a lot of parts.

just wondering if you think it would benifit me in any way? and if you know how much it typically costs thatd be cool if you could let me know too. thanks

even if hte 90k service was done prior to you purchasing it at 105k, you should still change the plugs, air filter, fuel filter pcv valve, drain/fill tranny fluid and coolant. Certain things you can do as preventitive measures. I'm sure people will start writing " read the stickies" so go do that... those above are just a few things

when you change the coolant I would recommend that you change the thermostat as well. PMCS is your friend.

Just do a complete 60k service...that covers everything. When I buy a car, I go right through it replacing every filter and fluid, not knowing whats been done or not. Good luck with the Max and enjoy
