111k miles and going, Am I missing anything?
I've gone well over 100k now, about 111k at this moment. The past 4 months I have done everything I think I can do as far as preventative maintenance on the vehicle. Gotten plugs and wires replaced, coolant flush, replaced front break pads and rotors, changed out tranny fluid, brand new tires, oil changes religiously every 3k miles along with lucas oil stabilizer, and finally changing out the ignition coils tonight. Everything else I haven't mentioned is in great working order. So far the car runs great even prior to changing out the coils which have lasted me 60k miles so far. Everything in the car's suspension is in great shape as well.
My only concern is this, what are some problems with the car that sneak up on people associated with high miles that I have not considered yet??? I'm asking now so I won't have to pay big bucks later to fix a problem i could solve now.

just finished the ignition coils, no hiccups, went smoothly. bushings are good, i know that for sure. havent really thought about the fuel pump, the sensors eventually but i havent noticed any degrading performance in them.

When you changed the coils did you find the metal baseplate they are bolted down to, was a bit rusty and pitted? If so, did you replace it or just cleaned it and if so, what did you used?
