Hey everybody,
I am trying to prepare my car for our wonderful NE winters, and my car is approaching 50K. I have some brand new snow tires to mount this season when the white stuff starts falling, and looking into some other minor items to check/replace just as precaution/normal maintenance.
I am going to replace the PCV valve tomorrow, along with cleaning the MAF sensor (first time doing either). I was also wondering about when you would need to clean the Intake Manifold? Should I just wait until 75-100K to do this, or should it be something I check up on more often?
Anything else should I take a look at? I plan to check the CV joints and brakes and such in the next week or two. Spark Plugs were checked and good to go.
What are some other things to give a look-see to? This is on a 2008 Scion XB with the 2AZ-FE motor.
Appreciate your help/assistance.
