big service interval isnt till 90k when you wanna do the timing belt, water pump, all main seals, and tune it up as well. Maybe for 60k a transmission service of some kind may be involved, like changing the fluid. Also, ever replaced your air filter? If you havent its defiently due.

No preventative maintenance bill will look too expensive once you see how much it costs NOT to do it.

My Haynes manual sez to check valve clearances at 60k, but I thought this was unneccesary with hydraulic lifters. Anyone have this service done?
