RE: about tune up?
Tune-ups go by mileage or time...best bet is to take a look at your Owners Manual and see what is recommened...
A full tune-up according to the OwnersManual would be...(for between 110 to 120,000miles)
A Replace engine oil.
B Inspect front and rear brakes.
Rotate tires.
Lubricate all hinges, locks, and latches with
multipurpose grease.
Inspect tie rod ends, steering gear box and boots.
Inspect suspension components.
Inspect driveshaft boots.
C Replace air cleaner element.
D Check parking brake adjustment.
Inspect brake hoses and lines (including ABS).
Check all fluid levels, condition of fluids, and check
for leaks.
Inspect exhaust system.
Inspect fuel lines and connections.
Check all lights.
E Inspect the underbody.
Inspect and adjust drive belts.
F Replace air conditioning filter .
Replace brake fluid every 3 years independent of milage
In addition you have to change your timing belt+inspect water pump every 110miles(I guess you already did this), replace spark plugs at 110miles, inspect valve clearance, replace engine coolant, replace brake fluid every 3 years...its all in the owners guide...if you have already done all this major stuff then its regular intervals every 10miles according to the manual, or Im sure haynes or chiltons would tell you similar things to do at mileage/time...
