    If you need to add coolant but do not see any leaks. I was loosing a little at each oil change but not enough to bother topping off. Or, if you find a white milky residue on the dipstick.

    Most recently :

    120,000 turned front rotors cleaned and replaced original pads
    140,000 turned rear rotors and installed new wagner ceramic pads

    I drive about 35,000mi a year, 110mi day back and forth to work
    I use quaker state advanced durability full synthetic 5-30 every 8,000 miles or so, usually when the oil change indicator shows around 40% oil life remaining

    Change the air intake filter every spring after the pollen stops falling

    I keep the tires balanced and rotated

    it's giving me 27.0 mpg's everyday mixed driving, and 30.4 on a 650 mi/11 hr drive i often take back and forth to Tennessee

    Thinking I need to go for struts soon though, seem to be losing "the ride" a little

    Bought it in 2006 it had 28000 miles on it, 3 yrs and 6 months were at 155,256

    Car has been very good to me I keep it very well maintained and do not neglect it in any way.
