there is no 80k service, the major service intervals are every 30k.

that being said, its never a bad idea to have a trusted shop look over your car for any upcoming issues.

Do you have a manual for your car? If so, that should be your first point of reference, not us.

Thank you. I checked my maint. Book in the manual and it seems noone has logged anything if that means anything. But ive also noticed a noise that sounds like a fan hitting plastic. And it fades in and out (when its happening) and sometimes it wont happen for days.

And i know my timing belt is going to be coming up soon aswell since its been passed 115 months?

And @loyale this post was intended to be looking for a reputable shop around haverhill.

If the timing belt has not been changed....or if you don't know.....it's time to change it. There are write ups in the maint section. Tominator did one recently including some "don't do this" parts to my old 08 LGT. Sounds like so long as you don't break anything, it's not that bad of a job.

Should not sound like plastic hitting something. I'd look to see if the fan has broken parts whacking it.

Paint is actually pretty mint except passenger side of rear fender like lost its gloss.

I gotta sell my old vehicle before i can do the timing belt and gotta find a reputable shop to do it. That is what im posting this for

I live in Haverhill and don't know of any shops to do the work here. I'd travel to NH which obviously a rocks throw away. There are tons of shops to choose from. Just search shops here in NESIC.
