Hi,

The manufacturer recommends a tune-up at 100K miles. What I have done is this. Below, starting at 75K miles, I provided the maintenance schedule for this vehicle. It lists what should be done and at what times. I ended at 100,000 miles where the tune-up is done.

Here is a link you may find helpful when tuning the engine. It explains in general how a tune-up is done.

Next, the remaining pictures below provide the directions specific to your vehicle for a tune-up.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe
