how do you feel your maintenance is?

is your car still running?

It's hard to say, i'm deployed right now. I'm trying to get ideas for when I get back home though.

I know i'm going to need to do a flush of every kind when I get back for good, and i'm gonna add some mods at the same time.

I think you're trying to get some kudos for your strong maintanence history. You're not the only one that maintains their car well....

You should have not even changed your cap,rotor,wires and plugs until 100k. You've replaced them 3 times at only 60k approx. Some things you did are a bit over-kill, but overall you maintain your car very well...

sounds like you pretty much got it covered...next up would be timing belt, water pump at 80-100k miles i believe...this stuff should be in your manual tho

 

[LCPLPunk]

The timing belt is one thing i've been wondering about, as far as I kwow it's usually done at a mileage interval and not a time interval, or am I wrong?

The car is 10 years old....

I'm also going to be putting on some new struts when I get back too, and probably some springs as well. Are there any other suspension things that tend to go bad? What about motor mounts?

I just got my timing belt/water pump service done at 93,000 miles. They say to do it when you get to 90,000.

personally, i would do a timing belt at 10 years/100k, whichever comes first. rubber wears out over time, just like any other belt/hose/insulator/etc. but thats just me. id be even more inclined to do it if the car was sitting for a long time without running (a year +).

Only thing I see is your intervals between oil changes seems a little high. Maybe I'm a stickler for that 3000-mark, but to each his own.

 

[LCPLPunk]

The oil thing is cuz I use full synthetics..

Hmm...the sitting for a year thing is a good point though...
