Glad you could join the Impala World !

As with any car at or around 100,000 miles I would suggest a Tune-Up. Oil change and filter replacements do not hurt either.

Don't neglect the transmission; change the filter and have it flushed or install a drain plug on the tranny pan and drain it one or two more times (practically as good as a $100 flush). If you hear clunking when you're in a turn, the ISS needs lubing and you can insist on Chevy paying for it, but chances are it's already been done if you don't feel a clunk. It's really a great car if you take good care of it. There was also an SB last year on some radiator bolts; you might take it to the Chevy dealer to have them check the VIN and make sure it was done. I love my 2000 but it only has 35 kmi on it. I'm banking on the TLC I give it will pay off.
