spark plugs, wires, fuel filter, seafoam in the gas tank and into the oil and oil change. Thats what I did recently when my car hit 90k. Thats what I would have done if my car was at 40k, but I didn't own it at that time. Also, might want to check the rear end fluid level, probably doesn't need any but it wouldn't be a bad idea to drain it and add new fluid.

I'd do a complete fluid and filter change on top of plugs/wires. Trans, rear, brake, power steering, fuel filter, etc.

Chck the manual for recommended service. After 4 years the coolant, brake fluid, tranny and rear fluid should be changed.

Lube all of the body rubber with silicone.
