Well my 99 Maxima is at 102k miles now, I want to do/have done the 102k mile maintenance, getting a little bit of belt squeal at start up and at idle right after starting the car. Anyhow, I've done some searching and haven't come up with anything Max specific, so I'd like some advice on what to change, seeing as I don't have an FSM at my disposal.

1. Whatever's causing the belt squeal.2. All my fluids. (Anyone know a write up on changing transmission fluid specifically in the Max?3. What the **** else?

Sorry if its been asked before, my search attempts couldn't find it, and I want to make sure I get EVERYTHING.

Crap now I'm getting really excited about a few things with the car, I was wondering if anyone here's done a variable intake installation? My old Taurus SHO had variable intake runners and I loved how it screamed when they opened up, so I'm very tempted to go for the installation for my max, I also really want to do an auto-5speed conversion.

I e-mailed you the service section of the factory service manual for a 1996 Max, the same services will apply to your 1999. Just do all of the things it says to do at 60k miles. You may also want to change your front sway bar bushings and tie rod end bushings the best place I have found to get those are here, you will need 2 of part #7-5118 and 4 of part # 4803-G. They will make a tremendous difference in your cars handling. Let me know if you don't get my e-mail.

I'll let someone else handle the variable intake question. And audtatious should have your auto-to-5 speed question handled in the technical forum. Just be prepared to spend a hefty amount of $$$ doing it.

Awesome, thanks very much, I'm only really worried about the maintenance at the moment.
