I'm not going to be the first in my area to get it done. If I have it done at all. After seeing what's involved, I don't see how the local yocals could possibly not screw something up. Maybe I should just leave well enough alone.
You know, the car was assembled by the Japanese equivalent of your local yocals right? It wasn't assembled by some master mechanic with some level of Zen training. Just saying...

Actually our cars have similar mileage and I was thinking the opposite. This is a good opportunity to get a LOT of zero mileage parts on my car, particularly seals, gaskets and such. I would be more likely to NOT do this if my car had fewer miles on it. I would wait until I had over 100K miles then take it in rather than replacing relatively new parts that work.

Just a different way of looking at it. It's the same reason I had the "cricket TSB" done right before the warranty expired. I didn't need it, but it zeroed out my pump.
