hi,
my '03 is a little over 5 years old, but only 22k miles. Other than replacing the antifreeze and reg oil changes, does anyone recommend other maintenace at this time? i see plugs go 100k, what about a trans service, pcv valve, brake fluid change, etc? thanks

Read the owners manual.

I would at least change the brake fluid and Engine coolant. Can't hurt and does not cost that much. PCV should be fine but I'd do the rear diff at the same time. Again not all needed just now but I'd do it.

Do the trans fluid while you are at it.

^^^what they said^^^ plus the fuel filter.

Check the belts and hoses for signs of cracking/rotting. Remember, some minor cracking on a serpentine belt is normal.

Check your tires for wear and dry rot.
