    100,000 km service

    My s15 is getting there... are there any thing special that needs to be done at this service? I don't suppose the timing chain needs to be touched. So if I've already done brakes, gearbox/diff, brake, coolant, plugs around 20000km ago, and the usual oil change every 5000km. What have I missed?
