TrundleFly Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Hello all. Would appreciate the benefit of your experience. I have only recently bought the car and all is fine (apart from a broken reverse sensor) but it is approaching 80K miles. Just wondering if there is any work advised outside of standard stuff that would be done on services. I.e. any things that might be worth replacing as a preventative measure to help keep away any large repair bills? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsYcHe Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 The timing belt and all ancillaries, tensioners, water pump, thermostat, etc.. Anything that is hidden behind it. Or is the 3.0 chain driven? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
