Greetings rav4 enthusiasts, I have a 2002 RAV4 L with 147000 miles on it. It runs great, and It has had regular oil changes, fresh battery, brakes last year, a new ECM, a new gas tank because the old one rusted out, replaced the exhaust system twice (and I can see that another replacement is coming soon) and has relatively new tires. The serpentine belt was replaced at 90K and trans fluid was replaced at 75K.
It’s currently driven about 100 miles a week, by this could increase to double that by the summer. All local driving, little to no highways.
I’m trying to baby this thing along so I can get it to 200000 miles and am looking for opinions on the most important maintenance items to have done to it. I’m on a budget, and have no idea how to prioritize what needs to be done. What do you folks recommend as the most important things to do now to get me to 200,000?
