Go with NGK spark plugs, Brimi wires. Mann or Mahle oil filter and synthetic oil.
Also change the fuel filter as well.

Has the timing belt been replaced?

Not personal experience, but, I've heard MANY folks on here recommend AGAINST the Bosch P+4's. Enough so that *I* won't purchase them for MY upcoming tune-up, FWIW.

its actually falso with 4+ my car came with Bosh Platinum 3+ . That stuff is about the japanese cars. Becouse they coils are weak many times Bosh platinum plugs wont fire. So our cars are better with Platinum.

German Cars Rule. Remember Bosh is German.

Do a sea foam cleaning. my car is 190K miles and it did wonders to my car. Now my throtle is crisp and very good.
