Yes.
The clutch was replaced, and I believe the tranny was too, if not rebuilt. The breaks were also replaced. The 60k tune up was done at around 140k-150k miles, don't remember, have to check the paperwork. those problematic bearings were replaced, I think a couple other things were done too...
I think I need new spark plugs. plus oil change, air filter, oil filter, etc. Are the spark plugs hard to replace? I only see three in front, and the rear ones look pretty...inaccessible...
