Default Scheduled Maintenance for my old ES300

I have an 1995 ES 300 with 148,000 miles on it. I would like to drive it to 200,000 or more miles.

I have minor issues with it (antenna motor, spedometer, sunroof leak) but other than that it's a real gem, and running smoothly.

However - other than replacing the timing belt when I got it at 60,000 miles in 2004, I haven't really done much maintenance to it other than brakes + oil changes. Can anyone recommend what maintenance I should invest in so I can keep this puppy running?

Thanks.

Monty.

Get new spark plugs. New spark plug wires, if your car has them. Replace the PCV valve. Check all fluids and filters. I would replace the transmission fluid and coolant. Other than that, you're good.

Your owners manual specifies maintenance schedule. You are due for another timing belt, water pump, perhaps pulleys as well. Fluids such as coolant and brake should have been changed.
