I just hit 120K last night. I been keeping up with the maintenance, which reminds me I have to do an oil change and plugs on my next day off. Just keep up with the regular stuff and do the timing belt according to how the manual states and you should be fine.

I remember placing the water pump and both belts at 100k but that's about it. Like everyone's saying, just keep up with the log book and you should be good.

yeah the power steering belt and the altenator belts. You should have done those when you had your timing belt done.
