So I'm at around 100k miles and i think it's time to do a full tune up. By full tune up, I mean, transmission oil flush, oil change, brake fluid, windshield fluid, radiator fluid, and spark plugs. What else should I do? Is there anything else I should flush? And does anyone have any how to's on any of these things? Suggested parts, fluids, and all that. I haven't seen anyone post this up so might as well do it. I wont have to do a timing belt/water pump change for another 20k miles so I'm trying to save up until that happens, but for now it's just the things I listed earlier.

 

Have you ever replaced the O2 sensors? If not it would be a good idea but not required. Also you could change the serpentine belt, air filter( if you don't have CAI or SRI) and the cabin filter. You pretty much got covered all the main things.
As for the how to's everything is pretty straight forward.
Good luck and Happy New Year!

 

When would people change their oil pump.

 

Oil pump should be changed or inspected when doing the timing side of the motor. I myself would spend the extra couple dollars and get it done when your in there doing the timing belt saves yourself alot of headaches down the road.

 

Sweet, thanks, I also have another question, what kind of spark plugs should I use? I think this has been answered... but hey, the forum can be dead at times so why not ask right? lol.

 

ngk iridium are good

 

When you replace the spark plugs if you have any oil on them replace the valve cover gasket set as well, it's cheap and easy.

 

Alright, I checked my spark plugs, no oil so it's all set but when I do my spark plugs, I might just replace it just for the hell of it. Anyone have a part number for this?

 

Replacing the oil pump isn't exactly what I would call a "while you're in there" repair. Getting to the oil pump requires tearing apart the entire front of the engine, well beyond what you'd do when changing a timing belt.

 

How much would you think it will cost to do this type of work? (Timing belt + oil pimp)

 

i really wouldnt worry about the oil pump... maybe the water pump is something to consider though.

 

some of the shops near me have quoted 600 for timing belt service jobs

 

The dealer quoted me $750 plus 13% tax. I would say if $600 includes parts then it's decent.
Unless you have recorded low oil pressure or found some other issue with the oil pump, I would say forget it. That is not something that usually needs replacement on a street car.

 

I see I see. lol. I'm just planning to keep my car for a very long time. 5+ years or so ya'know? Just making sure I do all the necessary steps to keeping the car on point. That seems decent, I got quotes from 500 - 800. 600 seems to be the average.
