Hi everyone, just sharing my new toy. 196k on a 2007 H3. Love it so far, and pouring a lot of love into it for some much needed maintenance!

Did filters, oil, VVT solenoid due a camshaft fault, differentials fluid, transfer case fluid, spark plugs, serpentine belt, brake fluid (lord it was old and pulsating with the original!) and about to do coolant due a bad thermostat.

Just found a bad rear shock which explains some of the clanks and such on it.

Any thing else I should be looking at for some preventative maintenance on this bad boy?

 

Welcome to HF

 

Welcome.

I hope you used ACDelco OEM type spark plugs, the I5s do not like aftermarket plugs and eat them up in short order.

Please read the thread below and do not post in it just because I suggested you read it.

It spells out basically what a tune up check list is for an H3. Acts like it wants to stall/rough idle -No CEL -What To Do:

 

Thanks Doc! I'll check it out. Appreciate all your help so far.
